Looking for a reliable private certifier
in the Mosman Council area?

Darook are private building certifiers providing building approvals, construction certificates and complying development certificates in the Mosman Council area.

As a trusted building certifier in Sydney, we possess a comprehensive understanding of local planning and building code regulations. This allows us to offer you clear guidance to expedite the commencement and completion of your building project.

Being an expert certifier in the Mosman Council area involves working in one of Sydney’s most prestigious and architecturally distinct neighbourhoods. Certifying detached studios, granny flats, dwellings, and alterations or additions to homes requires a deep understanding of the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and Mosman Council’s strict planning controls, which emphasise preserving the area’s heritage and scenic beauty. The council’s regulations prioritise low-density development, architectural harmony, and environmental sustainability, meaning certifiers must carefully assess projects for compliance with building heights, setbacks, and design standards, particularly in heritage conservation areas and properties with waterfront views.

The role also involves addressing unique challenges, such as steep or waterfront sites, ensuring appropriate stormwater management, and balancing privacy concerns with open space requirements. Alterations and additions to existing homes often require sensitive design approaches to maintain the heritage or aesthetic character of the property.

A Complying Development Certificate is a type of planning and construction approval issued by either a local council or an accredited private certifier. It is an alternative to a Development Application and a Construction Certificate for certain types of development that meet specific criteria outlined in the State Environmental Planning Policy 2008.

A construction certificate is required to be issued by the building certifier before building works can start. The construction certificate verifies that the construction plans are consistent with the development consent (DA) and comply with the building code of Australia (BCA).

Class 1 and Class 10 building approvals in Sydney refer to different types of buildings categorised under the Building Code of Australia (BCA). The BCA classifies buildings into various classes based on their use, size, and occupancy. Specifically:

  • Class 1a buildings: Class 1 buildings are houses. Typically, they are standalone single dwellings of a domestic or residential nature. These buildings can also be horizontally attached to other Class 1 buildings.
  • Class 10 buildings: These are non-habitable structures that are detached from the main building, such as garages, sheds, carports, and other similar structures.
