Default Building Regs - Advice please!

Hi,

I've just brought my first development property and two of the things I plan to do fall under building regs (double glazing and cutting in to a supporting wall).

I completely trust my builder to do a great job and I've been told not to bother with building regs but I'm a bit worried it'll cause problems when I come to sell so basically what can I get away with???!! Anyone had similar experiences?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated and I know building regs are there for a reason etc!

Cheers

For the sake of what the building regs will cost its not worth taking the risk. the windows will surely need to be passed to get ur certificate to sell on. building regs will probly pass the lot for about £300 and itll save you any bother in the future.
