Air tightness testing in Scotland
69 providers offering air tightness testing in or across Scotland, including national firms. The rules in Scotland differ from England’s, so see the notes below.
Every new home has been tested since February 2023, with no sampling. There is no fixed pass mark like England’s 8.0: guidance recommends designing to 7 m³/(h·m²) or better, and a higher figure must be justified to building standards. Blower door and pulse tests are both accepted.

Getting signed off in Scotland
In Scotland, you need a building warrant from the council before work starts, and design evidence such as SAP and overheating assessments goes in with the application. At the end you submit a completion certificate with your test reports. The council then has 14 days to accept it, and you can’t move into a new building until it does, unless the council allows temporary occupation.
