Construction software supplier Zutec has developed a customisable solution to help those in housebuilding comply with Part L. It enables geo-located photos to be captured, correctly labelled, centrally stored and traced back to a property before being submitted to the assessor for sign off.

From 15 June 2022, Part L of the Building Regulations will require housebuilders and developers in England and Wales to provide qualitative photographic evidence that demonstrates that new homes produce 31% less CO2 emissions compared with the current requirements.

Emily Hopson-Hill, chief operating officer at Zutec, said: “From speaking to our customers, one challenge they have as Part L 2021 comes into play is having one tool or app that works on site from any device, whether or not there is a wifi or data connection available, that allows them to take and record geo-located photographic evidence of a new home’s insulation or installation, to demonstrate compliance to Part L 2021.
