Sydney Building Approvals
We manage all your approval paperwork electronically using state-of-the-art software, ensuring a fast and paperless process. To ensure compliance with NSW legislation, we manage the entire approvals process from start to finish.
Our process begins with undertaking thorough property searches to identify any site-specific requirements. We then assess your plans for compliance with the National Construction Code, SEPP (including Exempt and Complying Development Codes), and Council Development Consents.
Once compliance is confirmed, we can issue a Construction Certificate or Complying Development Certificate, allowing you to commence work on-site. We can also act as the Principal Certifier, confirming all necessary approvals are in place, conducting Critical Stage Inspections throughout the construction process, and issuing an Occupation Certificate to ensure all preconditions of your consent have been successfully met.
