If you are planning to undertake plumbing works, it may be necessary for you to obtain a Plumbing Approval. Not all plumbing work is assessable work.
Assessable plumbing work, being plumbing work for which an approval is required, is defined by the Plumbing and Drainage Act 2002.
The application forms for such permit are available in the Application Forms section.
