Yes, in most cases, you will need a building consent to build an extension on your house. CB Built can help you determine if your project requires a consent and guide you through the process.
Depending on the type of extension and its proximity to boundary lines, you may need to notify your neighbors or obtain their consent. CB Built can advise you on your obligations under the New Zealand building code and Resource Management Act.
