I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Lloyds are being difficult. The Burton upon Trent solicitor who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Lloyds are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Lloyds have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Lloyds have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Lloyds may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

My wife and I have an offer in principle from Aldermore who indicated we could borrow up to £300k. When do I need to appoint a solicitor for conveyancing? Burton upon Trent is where we plan to move to.

That would normally be once you have the mortgage offer and survey back, but should you want to speed the process you can start quicker even though you may be risking some money.
