Frequently Asked Questions
How early should notice be served?
Allow for the applicable statutory period—normally one or two months—and additional time if surveyors need to agree an Award.
Can a neighbour prevent the project?
The Act does not give a neighbour a general veto. It provides a process for regulating relevant work and agreeing safeguards.
Who pays the surveyor fees?
For most domestic projects, the Building Owner undertaking the work pays the reasonable costs arising from it.
