Check who carried out the Building Control (if it was the NHBC, their
inspection regime tends to be less frequent than the Local
Authorities).

It seems that it very unsatisfactory if the "private building controllers"
(NHBC) in practice have different standards from the Local Authorities.

I seem to remember a recent case in the paper where some houses were build
with inadequate staircases, and the builders and the NHBC building control
each said it was the others responsibility to avoid to such errors.
