New Building regulations May 2020

There is an update to the building regulation in May 2020 and the amount of insulation we have to put into new roofs is going to be around 10% more than we do now. Not only do we have to put more in we have to be more precise in the way we put it in so we estimate the cost of insulating 1 m² of roof will go up by around 15%.

Not only will there be a price increase in materials and labour but we will have to take photographic evidence that the insulation has been installed correctly ​and​ self-certificate to that effect.

​Now the problem I have with this is that there is no method of getting this information out to the smaller roofer.
