  • London Borough of Waltham Forest (20 004 188)

    Statement Upheld Building control 05-Jan-2021

    Summary: The Council has conceded there was fault in a building control officer’s work. However, it has refunded the complainant’s fee, and confirmed it is making service improvements. Although the complainant considers the officer’s work was more inadequate than has been recognised by the Council, the Council has investigated the matter properly, and further investigation by us is unlikely to provide a different outcome. For this reason, we have completed our investigation.
