Compliance Testing for Self-Builds & One-Off Houses

Building your own home? We'll make sure it passes, first time.

Airtightness, ventilation, and BER — engage us early and we'll specify your complete compliance plan before you even start building.

Why Forsah is the right fit for your build.

A personal introduction from Sean Collins, Forsah's Commercial Director

How We Support You

Self-building is stressful enough. Compliance shouldn't add to it.

You're not a developer with a team behind you — you're doing this once, and you need it done right. Here's how we make that easier.

Before You Build

Plain-English Guidance

Not sure what Part F or Part L actually require? We'll explain what your build needs in plain English, not regulation-speak.

Any Time

Direct Access to Us

No call centre, no account manager juggling 50 clients — you deal directly with the people testing your house.

On Test Day

Fits Around Your Site

We work around your build schedule, not the other way round — and if something fails, we tell you exactly what to fix.

Whenever You Need

WhatsApp Support

Question about a result, or what your Assigned Certifier needs from us? Message us directly, no waiting on hold.

On Your Site, Fully Equipped

We bring everything to you.

Airtightness rig, ventilation testing kit, BER equipment — one visit, everything needed on the day, no waiting on separate contractors to show up.

The Complete Testing Package

Everything your Completion Certificate needs, from one team.

Rather than coordinating separate contractors for each test, one Forsah visit covers the full compliance picture — so nothing gets missed, and nothing holds up your handover.

Airtightness Testing

The core Part L test — confirms your build meets its target air permeability before Building Control will sign off.

Ventilation Validation

Confirms your MVHR or MEV system is actually delivering the airflow rates your design assumed — not just installed, but working.

Provisional BER & Design Review

Engage us before you break ground and we'll specify exactly what insulation and renewables your design needs — one complete plan for compliance from day one.

Final BER Assessment

Your official Building Energy Rating at completion — required by law before you can sell, let, or in most cases even occupy the finished house.

Why one team matters: when the same people test your airtightness and commission your ventilation, there's no gap for things to fall between — if one measure affects another, we catch it on site, not after your Assigned Certifier sends it back.

Free & No Obligation

Got a question about your build? Ask before you book.
