Building Approvals and Advice (BA&A) are Brisbane's residential certification experts. Our goal is to have your project approved first time, on time.

Streamline your building approvals with help from award winning private certifiers - your team for residential, pool, underpinning, re roofing and demolition approvals. The professional team at Building Approvals and Advice are committed to finding the best certification solution for your project. Drawing on our extensive industry experience, we ensure compliance with the appropriate building standards. BA&A have been recognised for five years as "National Certification Team of the Year" by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors. Our professional approach fosters strong relationships with our clients. We begin each project with a speedy quote and clear, reliable advice. We listen to individual questions and concerns, ensuring clients are fully aware of applicable regulations. BA&A works collaboratively with industry leaders, finding solutions to ensure compliant and safe houses for Queenslanders. Our certifiers regularly attend industry events and professional development to stay up-to-date with the latest building regulations. Whether your job is big or small, contact us to arrange your free quote. As part of the building approvals process we can organise energy reports, siting variations/ relaxations, plumbing and build over sewer and stormwater applications. As suits your project we can recommend experts to streamline your town planning applications, BAL reports etc.

A Form 16 is issued by the certifier in accordance with the Building Act 1975 and the Building Regulation 2021.

It may be issued at completion of a stage of building work, so then the construction / finalisation process can continue.

See the State Government's recent Building and Plumbing Newsflash (642) for explanation.
