My builder is telling me that building regs now states that socket and
switch heights should be greater than 450mm and less than 1200mm from the
finished floor level.


Only if you're building a new house or flat. It's not required to
extensions or alterations.



stricrtly regulations comr into force whenever any 'material
alterations' are done. This does include the above.

In practice, if the building inspector doesn't know, ts no big deal.
