Complying Development Certificate

Fast & Reliable Certification in NSW

Complying Development Certification Services in NSW

At Multicert our expertise ensures that all necessary certifications are obtained efficiently and effectively, allowing your project to progress smoothly and successfully.

Our residential certification services include Construction Certificates (CC), Complying Development Certificates (CDC), Demolition Approval and Occupation Certificates (OC).

As Principal Certifiers (PC), we serve as appointed building surveyors who are legislatively required to undertake a number of critical-stage and various non-mandatory inspections. Throughout these inspections, we meticulously document essential details across the construction process to verify compliance with building plans and specifications, adherencing to relevant regulations. Once the project is completed, we then issue an Occupation Certificate (OC).
