fensa certificate?

Hi folks, I have just had a letter asking if we would confirm that no glazing has been installed at the property since 2001.

I am a bit perplexed as to why the sols are asking this as they know that we had a two storey extension a couple of years ago - they have the relevant permissions and the completions certificate?!!

My question is when the building inspector carried out the final inspection on the extension, would the windows and french doors have been included in this inspection and therefore be covered by the completions certificate?:confused:

  • Normally you would expect the Building Reg Completion Certificate to cover the windows as well. Will anyone be able to to show that it doesn't?

    As a conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful but I accept no liability except to fee-paying clients

    As a retired conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful assuming any properties concerned are in England/Wales but I accept no liability for it.

    Thanks Richard, good point - the certificate is for the extension so you would think that the windows and doors were part of it, wouldn't you...
