Quick Info

Do I require plans?

Your building plans

Plans for your new home, extension, renovation or repairs must take into account:

• Victorian Government Building Regulations so that the work is structurally adequate and the health, safety and amenity standards for building is achieved

• foundation data, including soil tests, to work out an appropriate foundation depth, excavation costs and an adequate footing system for the building

• local council laws

• mandatory energy rating requirements.

Make sure everything you want is in writing and in the plans and specifications before you sign the contract - changes can be expensive once you have signed. Changes may also require an amendment to the building permit.

The Planning Phase

The planning phase is when the project plans are documented, the project deliverables and requirements are defined, and the project schedule is created. It involves creating a set of plans to help guide your team through the implementation and closure phases of the project.

The 5 basic phases in the project management process are:

• Project Initiation.

• Project Planning.

• Project Execution.

• Project Monitoring and Controlling.

• Project Closing.

Ensure you are Insured

What insurances are compulsory for the building industry?

Everyone who works on your building should have current certificates and insurance.

• Home building compensation cover.

• Contract works insurance.

• Professional indemnity insurance.

• Public liability insurance.

• Workers compensation insurance.

• Other insurance issues for homeowners.

Have Your Plans Drawn

A building plan is essentially a graphical representation of what the building you’re constructing will look like once construction has been completed. These plans can help you determine how much a project is going to cost, which is useful when creating an initial budget. Plans are always a good way to get things underway. Its needed for the permit and allows the client to gets several quotes to gauge costings for the upcoming project.Gehring group offers this process.
