What happens after I report a dangerous structure?
Usually building control surveyors arrange for the owners of such a building to undertake the necessary work to remove the hazard.
In some instances, however, if owners cannot be traced, or cannot undertake immediate action, building control will arrange for its own contractors to remove the danger.
In such circumstances costs incurred by the council are recovered/recharged to the property owner.
