06.01.2022 Recently I have been asked by multiple clients do I require a permit for this type of work on my home. Did you know there is more than one type of permit you could be required to have? The VBA ( Victorian Building Authority ) issues building permits.... https://www.vba.vic.gov.au//home-renovation-essent/permits https://www.vba.vic.gov.au//PN-32-When-is-a-building-permi Your local council issues Planning permits. https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/permits-/do-i-need-a-permit Is your home in a heritage listed area? This also restricts the type of work you can complete on your home. What are the penalties for not getting a Permit? https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/legislation-regul/penalties "The penalty for non-compliance with an enforcement order or interim enforcement order is set in section 133 of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 1998." The maximum penalty that can apply to prosecution in the Magistrates' Court is 1,200 penalty units." "The value of a penalty unit for a financial year is fixed by the Treasurer under section 5(3) of the Monetary Units Act 2004. The value of one penalty unit is $165.22 for the 2019-20 financial year." So to calculate one unit is $165.22 times by 1200 equals $198,264 Have you found this confusing yet? Do you need help figuring out the requirements for your home? You can contact a registered building surveyor, Draftsman, Architect, Registered Builder for help with this who will likely charge a fee for helping you. Another thing to consider is insurance on your home. If you plan to change anything on your home speak to your insurance company before starting the work. It may change your premiums. Also not notifying your insurance may affect any payments in the future if you make a claim. Imagine paying to have an extension built on your home then it gets damaged and the insurance company asks you why didn't you notify us previously about this and pays for a % to fix instead of the entire amount or refuses to pay or your excess is higher because you didn't notify them previously.
