You (or your architect or builder) will need to prepare several documents before you can submit your application. You'll need:
We recommend online applications, so these should be prepared as PDF files. We can accept paper applications if necessary, but this will incur additional fees.
Your drawings should include the level of detail seen in the building.govt.nz guide. Read more here on their website(external link).
Drawing conventions should generally conform to AS/NZS 1100.
Please follow these conventions when you collate your documents. If your documents aren't in this format, we reserve the right to return them to you, as it affects our ability to process your application in time. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
