Expert Building Certification Consultants Across Australia

The right Building Certification Consultants will make the difference when you need to have your development project signed off by the regulatory bodies. At AllCert Group, we are the accredited building surveyors, building and construction consultants that Australia can rely on to take residential, commercial and industrial projects through to the final occupation stage, on time and to the full extent.

Be it building approvals in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or any other part of Australia, our consultants have accredited experience, local regulatory experience, and a track record of success with every engagement.

What Are Building Certification Consultants?

Building Certification Consultants are certified practitioners, usually registered building surveyors, who are allowed to examine construction plans, issue compliance certificates, perform on-site inspections, and offer independent supervision at all phases of a building project. They serve as the key between your development team and the regulatory framework established under the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and state laws.

Our consultants in AllCert Group are accredited by the NSW Fair Trading as Building Surveyors -Unrestricted, which means that we are able to certify any type of project, regardless of size, type and complexity, including Class 1 residential dwellings to Class 9 public-use buildings and Class 10 constructions.

Why Do You Need Building Certification Consultants in Australia?

The building regulatory environment in Australia is elaborate, multi-layered and state-based. In the absence of qualified building and construction consultants, developers and builders tend to encounter:

  • Costly delays due to incomplete or non-compliant documentation.
  • The building approvals are rejected because of the mistakes in the plans or the absence of certifications.
  • Safety hazards due to non-conforming structural, fire, or accessibility precautions.
  • Risk of legal liability associated with the construction without the rightful certificates.
  • Inability to achieve NCC (National Construction Code) performance solutions.

These risks are avoided by involving the Building Certification Consultants of AllCert Group at the earliest stage of the project, preferably at the concept design stage. We detect compliance problems before they can be costly issues, simplify your building approvals process and ensure your project is on schedule.

Our Building Certification Consultants Services Across Australia

AllCert Group, as full-service building and construction consultants, takes care of the entire certification lifecycle. This is what we have to sell:

1. Construction Certificate (CC)

Prior to the commencement of physical building work, a Construction Certificate is necessary. It ascertains that your construction plans and specifications are in accordance with the approved Development Application (DA), the BCA and all the applicable standards. Our consultants will go through your documentation and issue the construction certificate in due time and indicate any non-conformances early enough to ensure that your build commences without unnecessary hold-ups.

2. Complying Development Certificate (CDC)

A Complying Development Certificate offers a streamlined development approval route – avoiding the entire DA process—to projects that satisfy pre-established planning requirements. The consultants of AllCert Group determine the eligibility, prepare and review necessary documents and issue CDCs in an efficient manner to expedite the project timelines in Australia.

3. Occupation Certificate (OC)

Occupation Certificate should be obtained before any building can be occupied legally. Final site checks, compliance documentation, and OCs to full or partial occupation Our team makes sure that construction and occupancy are seamlessly transferred through final site checks, compliance documentation and OCs.

4. Residential Building Certification Consultant Services

The residential building certification consultant services of AllCert Group include residential house and dual-occupancy developments, as well as townhouses, multi-dwelling developments and residential extensions and additions. We know that residential projects have their own schedules and demands and our consultants are designed in such a way that they can provide quick turnarounds that are dependable yet not at the expense of being sloppy.

5. Crown Development Certification

Projects undertaken by the government and the public sector need expert knowledge. AllCert Group consultants are accredited to provide Crown Development Certificates under Section 6.28 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, and are therefore a desirable partner to government agencies and developers in the public sector in Australia.

6. Independent Peer Reviews

Our peer review service offers independent, objective evaluation of certification decisions, compliance documentation and performance solutions when a second set of expert eyes is needed. This service enhances confidence in the project and lowers regulatory risk.

Building Compliance Services: End-to-End Regulatory Support

In addition to certification, AllCert Group provides end-to-end building compliance services to your project at each regulatory interface. Our compliance services are offered as BCA reports and design reviews, construction inspections at the critical stages, fire safety assessments, accessibility audits to the DDA and NCC standards, and performance-based solutions to complex or non-standard designs.

Through our certification workflow with building compliance services, clients are provided with a coordinated, integrated approach – instead of having to deal with a variety of disconnected consultants. This model of one-point-of-contact eliminates mistakes, saves time, and provides project teams with an idea of clarity at all levels.
