What Sets Us Apart
Our History
Broste Rivers Group was established to strengthen building compliance services and support the evolving needs of the construction industry.
At the heart of the Group is Hertfordshire Building Control, formed in 2016 through a collaboration between Hertfordshire local authorities to provide a resilient, high-quality statutory building control service. This partnership model protects public sector building control expertise while supporting safe and sustainable development across the region.
As regulatory requirements and construction complexity have increased, the Broste Rivers Group has expanded to bring together specialist expertise across compliance, consultancy and accessibility services. Today the Group includes:
-
Hertfordshire Building Control – Local authority building control services
-
Build Insight – Registered Building Control Approver operating across England and Wales
-
BCC Consultancy – Building compliance and technical consultancy
-
BCC Adaptations – Accessible and inclusive building solutions
Together, these services provide joined-up expertise to support projects of all sizes, from individual homes to complex developments, while maintaining the Group’s strong foundations in public service, safety and regulatory excellence.
