Frequently asked questions.
Still have a couple of questions? We've put together answers to some of the most common ones.
What documentation is needed for a certification quote?
To do a quote for a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) we just need your site plans that include front, side and rear setbacks as well as elevations (if you have any supporting property documents like a Title Search send that through as well). For a Construction Certificate (CC), all we’ll need is your development consent from Council and your Development Application (DA) stamped plans.
Will Buildcert manage my whole project?
I’ve already started construction, can I still get a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) or Construction Certificate (CC)?
What projects need subdivision certification? Do they also need building certification?
Sorted.
