In response to you recent request the Building Surveyors' Inspection
Comments are attached.
It should be noted that these are intended for internal purposes and for
efficiency are done on an 'exception basis' mainly where items requiring
addressing are noted. References to third parties have been redacted in
accordance with the Data Protection requirements.
I would stress that any reference to works being "satisfactory" refers
solely to them complying with the requirements of the Building
Regulations.
Sewers and driveways are outside the remit of the Building Regulations. I
understand from colleagues in Streetscene that the road is unadopted and
no inspections have been undertaken.
I hope this is of assistance.
