FAQ
Common questions
Five things we get asked the most, covering the difference between DA and CDC, timelines, scope, and pricing.
Not always. Many residential projects can be documented by a building designer or drafting professional, depending on the project scope and approval pathway. If specialist input is required, we will identify this early and advise accordingly.
Every project is quoted as a fixed fee, so there are no surprises. Pricing depends on the scope, the site and the approval pathway. After a free assessment we send a written quote with a clear list of what's included — you approve it before any work begins.
The basics are enough to begin: your project type, the site address or suburb, and a short description of what you'd like to build. Any existing plans, a survey or a Section 10.7 certificate help us move faster, but they aren't required upfront.
Yes. We document residential projects across Greater Sydney and selected regional NSW, including the Hunter Region, Mid North Coast and Northern Rivers. Most projects are managed remotely, so distance is rarely an obstacle.
