Are you working through the building permit process for a project in Greater Geelong?
Your building surveyor may advise that the works require protection work notices to be issued. This occurs when a Form 6 determination is applied, indicating that the construction activity could influence an adjoining property.
Protection works exist to ensure adjoining owners are formally notified that your build may affect the boundary or nearby structures. To meet these obligations, you must provide a Protection Works Notice (Form 7 & Form 8), outlining the steps you’ll take to safeguard the neighbouring property throughout the construction period.
These notices are a legislated requirement in Victoria. Your building surveyor cannot finalise or release your building permit until the protection works documentation has been properly served and the adjoining owner has had the opportunity to review and respond.
Handling this stage correctly helps prevent disputes, avoids unnecessary delays & keeps your permit moving so your project can progress without interruption. Given the complexities involved, many people rely on Home Building Assist to ensure this part of the building process goes smoothly.
