There’s a High Chance Your Building Surveyor has Made a Protection Works Determination for your Build in Footscray
Construction in Footscray often takes place on tight urban blocks, older building stock, narrow access points & boundary‑to‑boundary developments.
When you submit a building permit application, your building surveyor may issue a Form 6 determination indicating that your proposed works could affect an adjoining property. Once this determination is made, you must serve Protection Work Notices (Forms 7 & 8) outlining the measures you’ll take to protect neighbouring structures during the build.
These notices are a mandatory requirement under Victorian building legislation. A building surveyor cannot issue or advance your building permit until the Protection Work Notices have been properly served & the adjoining owner has had the opportunity to respond.
Completing this step correctly helps prevent permit delays. However, many people either don’t have the time, don’t enjoy talking with adjoining structure owners or understand the process.
The Home Building Assist service provides fast, compliant, surveyor‑aligned Protection Work Notices, giving builders, architects & building surveyors a dependable solution for meeting their protection works obligations & maintaining project momentum.
