Know Your Role. Understand Your Duties. Stay Compliant.

From 1 October 2023, the updated Building Regulations introduced new legal responsibilities for Clients, Designers, and Contractors. These changes affect everyone involved in a building control application – and understanding your role is essential to staying compliant.

We’re committed to helping you navigate the regulations with confidence. That’s why we’ve created a clear and interactive guide to help you identify your Dutyholder role under Part 2A of the Building Regulations 2010.

How to use this guide

The interactive tool below walks you through:

What each role means under the updated regulations
How to identify your position within the project team
What your specific responsibilities are

Use the arrows to move through each section. Whether you’re a domestic client, a designer, or a contractor, this tool will help you understand exactly what’s required – so your building control application can proceed smoothly.
