Legislation & advice

It is important to remember that many major DIY projects either require official approval before they are undertaken or need to be inspected after they have been completed. Here we look at these areas, explaining what is required of you in relation to the legislation, as well as providing links and contact details of organisations that will be able to offer further information. Additionally, we have included important health and safety advice that you need to be aware of when carrying out DIY projects.
