A private certifier is a professional who is qualified to certify that a building or development complies with the Building Code of Australia (BCA).

 

 

Private certifiers have an important role to play in the building industry, ensuring that all builds and developments are compliant with Australian laws and regulations. These professionals are highly trained and experienced in assessing a range of plans, designs, and specifications against the Building Code of Australia (BCA). They work closely with local builders, developers and owners to ensure that they understand what is required under the BCA before works commence. A private certifier will also provide advice where necessary so as not to breach any laws that may be applicable when it comes to specific developments or building projects. It is essential that only experienced and qualified professionals are used when undertaking such sensitive certification work. Private certifiers play an instrumental role in making sure buildings are safe for both occupants and passers-by within our communities.

In Western Australia, private certifiers must be registered with the Building Commission.

 

In Western Australia, the Building Commission requires that any private certifiers be registered prior to conducting building activities. This is an essential measure taken to ensure safety and compliance with regulations, which contributes to a higher quality of service. Private certificate holders must meet certain eligibility criteria, including completing all necessary qualifications and have a minimum of two years’ experience in the industry. As such, the public can be assured that anyone performing building certifications under their supervision has the expertise and knowledge needed to do so safely and efficiently. By imposing this requirement on certificates, construction practices become safer and more efficient for both the public and those managing it.

 

Private certifiers can provide pre-purchase advice, help with building permit applications, and carry out final inspections.

 

Private certifiers are a great asset to any building project, helping the process run smoothly and efficiently. For starters, they can provide pre-purchase advice, ensuring that the purchasing process goes as smoothly as possible. Furthermore, they can help with submitting building permit applications correctly and in a timely manner. Lastly, private certifiers can carry out necessary final inspections to ensure that all relevant building regulations have been met before occupation is allowed. They are an invaluable source for completing a building project properly and safely.

They can also provide advice on compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and other relevant legislation.

 

 

Professional building certifiers can provide invaluable assistance to those undertaking construction projects. Not only do they inspect construction work and ensure it complies with relevant regulations, but they can also provide advice on meeting the exacting standards of the National Construction Code (NCC) and other applicable legislation. Such guidance from an expert in the field is incredibly useful in helping people achieve their desired outcomes in a safe, legal, and efficient way. In short, professional building certifiers are integral for anyone desiring a successful project.
