Demolition Approvals

Q: Do you prepare Development Applications (DA) as a service?

No — PROCERT does not provide DA preparation services. PROCERT focuses on certification and approval services such as CDC, CC, Principal Certifier services and Occupation Certificates.

Demolition work in NSW often requires approvals and careful coordination of documentation, safety requirements and site controls. PROCERT can assist by reviewing the approval pathway, supporting documentation requirements, and guiding compliance steps to help you progress demolition works efficiently and safely before the next stage of development.

Typical demolition workflow

Every site is different, but demolition projects generally follow these steps: confirm pathway, compile documentation, progress approvals, then coordinate inspections/requirements where applicable.

Site review and scope confirmation

Confirm scope, constraints, services and what approvals/conditions may apply before work starts.

Prepare documents and supporting evidence

Compile plans, reports and supporting documents commonly required to assess demolition approvals.

Approval and next-stage coordination

Once approvals are in place, coordinate requirements so your next stage (build approvals) can proceed without delays.
