Using a Private Building Certifier in NSW

  16 June 2014

If you are in the process of buying a steel building from one of our stores in New South Wales, then you may be considering getting in contact with a local building certifier to help with your building rules assessment.

Building certifiers can perform many of the same duties as what council can do, such as:

  • Assign classifications
  • Advise on safety provisions
  • Advise on building conditions
  • Assess proposed residential code developments
  • Advise on wind regions and engineering requirements

Many clients use a certifier as they often offer faster turnaround times than council, and in some cases may even be the cheaper option.

How to Find a Building Certifier
To find a reputable local building certifier, check with your local Sheds n Homes team for recommendations or search online. Always make sure to ask to see a certificate confirming their registration.

Information to Provide
You are best to speak with the building certifier directly to see what information they will require, but in most cases, they will require:

  • Design criteria
  • Intended use of building
  • Colour scheme
  • Building specifications

For more information about building certifiers in New South Wales, or to find the best value Australian made steel residential garage, workshop or farm shed, call 1800 764 764. You will be connected with your nearest outlet based on your postcode.
