BUILDING CERTIFIERS SUNSHINE COAST

If you are planning on doing building works then a building permit will be required. Building works involving new works, renovations, alterations, swimming pools just to mention a few, will require a building approval.

Some commonly asked questions and answers about the certification process

• What is the general process?

Building Approvals United QLD will assess your proposal to determine whether proposed building work complies with all relevant provisions of the Building Act and associated standards. Furthermore we will conduct inspections to ensure work complies with the building approval.

• Does the council have to assess my application?

No, if your proposal only requires a building permit; Building Approvals United QLD will assess and issue the building approval documentation. We will also forward all documentation to local government to be recorded against the property. We are fully licensed under the Building Act 1975 which enables us to do so.

(For further information see our process information page)
