One of the elements of the Building Control Act 2007 is to provide for the registration of titles of certain building professions including Building Surveyors and Quantity Surveyors.
The Society of of Chartered Surveyors Ireland administers the register of Building Surveyors and Quantity Surveyors and is named in the Building Control Act 2007 as the registration body.
The purpose of the statutory register is to ensure that anyone using the professional title "Building Surveyor" or "Quantity Surveyor" has the recognised qualifications, training and experience in accordance with the provisions of the Building Control Act 2007.
It is an offence under the Building Control Act 2007 for persons to use the professional title "Building Surveyor" or "Quantity Surveyor" unless they are registered.
The statutory register will provide members of the public with reassurance that the Building Surveyors and Quantity Surveyors listed on the register are qualified professionals who comply with strict codes of ethical and professional conduct.
It also provides consumers with a dispute resolution mechanism in the event of problems such as substandard work or poor service.
Members of the public can also check the Register and verify details of registered Building Surveyors and Quantity Surveyors online.
