The Team

The City of Nedlands Building Services team is responsible for ensuring all building works undertaken in The City comply with relevant regulations and policies.

Under the Building Act 2011, a Building Permit is required before the commencement of most building work. 

The City’s Building Services team offers a range of services relating to building approvals and anyone who needs to obtain approval for proposed or existing work can make use of these. 
The range of services offered includes approvals for proposed and unauthorised building work, inspections, verge and demolition permits and the issuing of occupancy certificates. 

Development Approval is also required for most building work and this requires a separate application to the City’s Planning Services team. Development Approval must be obtained before a building permit can be processed and issued.

A Building Permit is required for most building work. Please contact The City’s Building Services team with any queries prior to proceeding with your proposed project.
