Deck

Service Description

Deck Permit: Decks are considered outdoor living spaces and usually need a building permit. The only exception is if they are built directly over an existing concrete slab. As soon as you place a stump in a footing in the ground, a building permit is required. To obtain a permit for a Deck in Victoria, Prime Drafting simplifies the process by providing detailed architectural plans and assistance with building permit approvals for our clients by providing: 1. Complete Property Documentation We secure all required property documents for permit applications from Council and other relevant authorities. 2. Detailed Architectural Plans We create comprehensive architectural plans that show the location of the proposed Deck in relation to existing structures and property boundaries, along with dimensions, material specifications, and structural details. These plans ensure compliance with the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and meet all necessary requirements set by building surveyors. 3. Building Surveyor and Permit Services We take care of all the necessary paperwork, appoint a Registered Building Surveyor and manage the submission of your permit application. We address any inquiries from the building surveyor regarding plans and permit applications. This ensures a seamless and hassle-free process for obtaining your deck permit so you can begin without delay. 4. Additional Approvals: Depending on your project, additional approvals may be required, such as Town Planning from the local council or Over-Easement from the water authority. We handle these approvals, simplifying the process with ease. We're here to help with any questions you may have.
