Depending on availability we can be at your house tomorrow and have the paperwork issued that same day.
By comparison, a retrospective Building Warrant is likely to take 4 months and may require additional building work, adding yet more time.
A retrospective Warrant will cost you anything from £2,500 to £4,000.
By comparison, depending on where you are and what you've done, our cost is likely in the £750 to £1,000 range and can be completed within days of your call.

Time is running out
So why does No Warrant = No Sale?
Think about all the really old houses out there with extensions and loft conversions from decades ago - NONE of those have Building Warrants for the work carried out. Building Regulations were only introduced in 1959. Before that no one even knew what a Building Warrant was and those houses sell all the time.
So, the lack of a Building Warrant itself will not stop your sale.
You don't actually NEED a Building Warrant to sell your house.
A Building Warrant assures the mortgage company that the Building Regulations were met and someone oversaw the design, assuring the mortgage company that their investment in your house is a safe one.
Mortgage lenders are very risk averse and so the lack of a Building Warrant will stop your buyer getting a mortgage and THAT is what will stop your sale.
However, very often the person buying your house needs a mortgage.
We can provide paperwork which your buyers mortgage company will accept in lieu of a Building Warrant, allowing them to fund the sale of your house.
We will even provide your solicitor, with a draft email to send to the buyer's solicitor, in case either is unfamiliar with this option.
This is where we can help.
