Building Certification

Professional Certification Group is one of the most trusted private certifiers for building certification. We are renowned for our professionalism and ability to navigate complex building regulations and planning laws – providing fast, reliable, and accurate advice for completing any building project.

Whether you’re working on a large-scale commercial development or a private residential project, we can help you get the approvals and permits you need to comply with current laws.

In New South Wales, our private certifiers are experts in assessing work for Construction Certificates and Complying Development Certificates. We are also accredited to act as the Principal Certifying Authority and undertake Critical Stage Inspections to issue necessary certificates including the Occupation Certificate.

We can assist with the following:
