 Building Control Certificate of Completion - L'escargot
The rectification work on the re-routing of our drainage system from septic tank to public sewer has now been carried out. The drainage system now requires a Certification of Completion from the Building Control section of our local council.

Is it customary to wait until receipt of this certificate before paying for the work?

I did so recently, but with the prior agreement of my contractor.

Too late to edit, but If you are happy to accept verbal confirmation, give the Building Control people a ring.

Ditto, for our kitchen extension. Might be an idea to ask building control how long they think it will take to provide the certificate.

I rang him up and he's coming tomorrow afternoon. I asked him "how long" and he said if I give him my email address he can send me the certificate "almost immediately".
