Before you go ahead with those renovation plans, you’re going to have to deal with local council to get any building work approved. Here are some tips for making the process as painless as possible:
– speak to the neighbours first – they will appreciate being told and be more likely to understand what you are doing and why;
– obtain a copy of the local council’s Development Control Plans so that you know the criteria for renovations and additions in your area; and
– allow at least six weeks for council to approve any plans.
