Cheers Hi chalky 1.First you need Planning approval / i was told you need one if you are requesting variation of R-codes, http://www.planning.wa.gov.au/dop_pub_p ... _Print.pdf i don't have any so i am going for Building Permit / you need owner builder license /permit/ before that http://www.commerce.wa.gov.au/building- ... pplication Re: Owner Building in Perth 9Jul 10, 2015 9:06 am Hi Chalky As Dbenz said you will require scaled drawings before you can submit to planning. These need to be of a standard form a drafty. You will need to obtain a building OB licence before you submit for a building permit. Try to leave this as the last thing you do before you submit to building department as the OB is only valid for 6 months this enables you to attach this with your building permit. To obtain a OB ticket it usually takes about 3-4 weeks. PM for my email address!

Grant @ Entire Fire Management is who I used cheapest and great customer service. You will require a fire management plan from local council for them to do the audit.
