A Code Compliance Certificate is issued by Kawerau District Council when it is satisfied new building and plumbing work complies with the New Zealand Building Code.
If the work does not comply, the Council will issue a Notice to Fix, identifying areas of non-compliance.
Getting a Code Compliance Certificate is beneficial for property owners in a number of situations:
- When selling your home
- When applying for loans or other financing
- When applying for insurance
- For safety and peace of mind
