Architect for Regulatory Compliance

Energy performance, safety, accessibility, and habitability — all properties must meet a number of standards in order to be compliant. These standards can evolve over the years, and sometimes an incident or the wear of time forces owners to review the compliance of their buildings. It is also a mandatory step before putting a property up for rent or sale.

To guide you through the process of bringing your property up to standard, a specialist architect is the professional you need. This expert is always up to date with the latest regulations to ensure your property complies with all current requirements.

What does a specialist compliance architect do?

A specialist architect has a thorough knowledge of all current housing regulations. Through their hands-on field experience, they are fully aware of existing obligations as well as new standards that emerge over time. Whatever your needs, they have all the skills required to address them.

Checking the safety and compliance of the building
A specialist compliance architect pays particular attention to building safety. All architectural projects must meet strict safety requirements, especially with regard to fire risk.

Bringing homes and public-access buildings up to standard
This type of architect is frequently called upon for establishments open to the public (known in France as ERP — Établissements Recevant du Public). These projects must satisfy a wide range of obligations, both during construction and renovation. People's safety, accessibility for people with disabilities, environmental standards — the architect ensures that the establishment is fully compliant.

Support with administrative procedures
Regulatory standards involve a considerable amount of administrative formalities. The architect steps in to ensure that all mandatory procedures are properly followed. Whether it is a matter of demonstrating that your property meets technical standards or submitting a planning application for a renovation, this architect is there to see every stage of your project through to completion.
