The Building Process

Once you apply, your consent is assessed for compliance with the Building Code and timelines can vary depending on complexity.  Most work will require inspections at key stages and councils provide booking systems and checklists for what’s involved.

If your project includes restricted building work, you'll need to engage a Licensed Building Practitioner (LBP) and provide certain documentation.

Each council outlines its' building consent process clearly so follow their guidance to avoid delays.
