Assigned Certification

The Building Control (Amendment) Regulations 2014 (BC(a)R) requires the appointment of Design Certifiers and Assigned Certifiers to oversee the design, construction and certification of building works.  The legislation dictates that only a Registered Building Surveyor, Registered Architect or Chartered Engineer can undertake the appointments of Assigned Certifier and Design Certifier.    

As Registered Building Surveyors Spectra Building Surveying has provided independent Assigned Certifier and Design Certifier Services across Dublin and the Leinster & Ulster areas since the introduction of the legislation.
