Comprehensive Building Surveying & Permits Solutions

1. Building Surveying & Certification

We are registered building surveyors authorised to assess your project and issue building permits in accordance with the Building Act and Regulations. Our team ensures your documentation complies with all relevant codes before issuing approval to commence construction.

2. Building Permits (Residential, Commercial & Industrial)

We manage building permit applications for a wide variety of projects — from new homes and renovations to multi-storey commercial and industrial facilities. Our experience ensures timely approvals and clear communication from submission to permit issue.

3. Mandatory Building Inspections

We conduct stage-by-stage inspections to verify that building works align with approved plans and relevant regulations. These include footing, slab, frame, waterproofing, and final inspections, ensuring compliance and quality at every step.

4. Occupancy Permits & Certificates of Final Inspection

When your building is ready for use, we’ll issue the required Occupancy Permit or Certificate of Final Inspection, confirming the project has met all permit conditions and is safe for occupation.

5. Performance Solutions & Alternative Compliance Pathways

For complex or non-standard designs, we coordinate performance-based solutions that satisfy the intent of the National Construction Code (NCC) through expert assessment and reporting.

6. Pre-Application Advice

We offer strategic early advice during design and planning to identify compliance risks, prevent costly delays, and ensure your project meets code requirements before formal submission.

7. NCC & Regulatory Compliance Review

We review architectural and engineering plans to confirm they comply with the National Construction Code (NCC), Victorian Building Regulations, and Australian Standards, helping avoid rework and refusals.

8. Report & Consent Coordination (Council Approvals)

We assist with obtaining required council approvals under Section 29A and other provisions, including consent for building over easements, height variations, site coverage, and demolitions.

9. Fire Safety & Engineering Compliance

We work closely with fire engineers and statutory bodies to address fire protection requirements, coordinate assessments, and integrate fire safety systems into your permit documentation.

10. Owner-Builder Assistance

We help owner-builders navigate the permit process, including guidance on obtaining a Certificate of Consent, preparing applications, and ensuring legal and regulatory compliance throughout the project.

11. Retrospective Building Approvals

If work has commenced or been completed without a valid permit, we provide expert support in assessing, documenting, and regularising the project through retrospective approval (where legally permitted).

12. Response to Building Notices & Orders

We assist clients who have received a Building Notice or Building Order from council. Our team will assess the non-compliance, prepare documentation, and work with authorities to resolve issues efficiently.

13. Documentation Support & Lodgement Management

We streamline the permit process by helping prepare, review, and lodge documentation accurately. Our administrative team ensures nothing is missed and you stay informed at every stage.

14. Multi-Unit & Complex Development Support

For builders and developers managing multi-dwelling or high-density sites, we offer strategic support across compliance, staging, and documentation to keep your project on track from start to finish.

15. Heritage, Overlay & Planning Zone Guidance

If your site is affected by planning overlays or heritage controls, we provide expert advice on design implications, referral requirements, and compliance pathways to keep your project viable.

At Your Permit Group, we combine deep regulatory knowledge with innovative service delivery, making complex approval processes easier, faster, and more predictable.
