Building works can affect your neighbours’ properties. If the work is close to other properties you may need to carry out protection works and you must notify all affected property owners.
Protection work notices
Protection work may include:
- Underpinning of adjoining property footings
- Shoring up of the adjoining property
- Overhead protection for adjoining property
Your building surveyor will determine if protection work is required when reviewing your building permit application.
