As our designing is done by our in-house draftsman we can do full Design & CDC Approval in as little as 3 Weeks and it only costs $7000! We take care of the entire process of Design & Approval, nothing for you to do as we draw up your full set of working Architectural plans, get your site surveyed, obtain Engineering, Stormwater Designs, BASIX, CDC Approval, Sydney Water Approval, and we even pay for your Long Service Levy and Council Lodgement fees.
We have a 16 Week Build Time Guarantee so within that time and often faster.
CDC Approval is approved by a Private Certifier, as it is a private service the process is much faster. DA Approval is approved by your Local Council, this process is much slower and costly as the requirements to get Approval are harder to meet.
Private Certifiers are professionals that are qualified to issue Construction Approvals on properties that meet general requirements.
