Assure Building Safety with Building Inspections in Melbourne

A building permit is a document that proves that a registered building surveyor has inspected and approved plans and documentation before a project begins.

We issue your Building Permit in Melbourne

The Building Act 1993 and Building Regulations 2006 state that most building work requires a building permit to be issued by a registered building surveyor before works commence to ensure that your plans and documentation are complete and meet all the legislative requirements.

As a fully registered building practitioner, Nicholson Wright can issue a building permit and carry out the mandatory building inspections for all types of building work, from residential projects like houses, swimming pools and carports to retail outlets, office buildings and factory units.

How to obtain a building permit

Our customer-centric approach means we will guide you through the process of obtaining a building permit. This process can sometimes appear daunting and complex, but we will be on hand every step of the way.

The first step to obtaining a building permit for your project is to fill in a Building Application Form – which we can provide and assist you with completing.  After that, we check to ensure that your building plans and documentation are compliant with relevant building legislation before granting a building permit.

We then carry out the relevant building inspections throughout your project to ensure the key building stages are completed in accordance with the permit, Building Act 1996 and Building Regulations 2006.
