Private Certification
Eastcoast building consultants are Accredited certifiers who can act as a principal certifying authority that can issue Part 4 and 4A certificates under the Environmental Planning & Assessment (EP & A) Act 1979.
A PCA must be appointed by the owner or person with the benefit of the DA. A PCA can be either an accredited certifier (an individual not the company) or the local council.
Once you have received your DA approval from Council eastcoast building consultants can issue a Construction certificate which authorises building work to commence.
There are also several other certificates that can be issued:
- Complying development certificate – no DA approval is required from your local council, however the proposed structure must comply with certain requirements such as the Development Control Plan’s (DCP’s) and the Local Environment Plan (LEP).
- Compliance certificates – confirming that the conditions of consent comply with the applicable standards and that work has been properly carried out
- Occupation certificate – this certificate is issued when the building complies with the approved plans and also the development application. This certificate is issued prior to Occupation of the building.
Eastcoast building consultants are accredited as A3 – Accredited certifier – Building Surveying Grade 3 which can issue the abovementioned certificates for Class 1 and 10 buildings that achieve compliance with the performance requirements of the BCA by complying with the deemed-to-satisfy provisions of the BCA.
