Building Control

Galway City Council is the Building Control Authority for the City of Galway.

Building Control should not be confused with Planning Control which enforces the Planning Conditions for a Development.

The role of the Section in relation to building control involves the monitoring of building construction activity in the City to:

Secure the health, safety and welfare (including fire safety) of people in and around buildings.
Ensure the provision of access for people with disabilities.
Further the conservation of fuel and energy in relation to buildings.

The Building Control Officer in Galway City Council helps to promote local awareness of the Current Building Regulations and to help you achieve Compliance.
