Why it matters now

An unregistered builder on Class 2 work puts the liability back on you.

The NSW DBP Act exists because too many buildings were signed off by people who couldn't stand behind the work. If regulated work on your building is done without a registered practitioner, declared designs and compliance declarations, the exposure doesn't sit with them — it can land on your OC. Registration isn't paperwork for its own sake. It's the audit trail that protects the people who approved the job.

Miranda high-rise balcony waterproofing project — Atomic ProjectsCLASS 2 · BALCONY WATERPROOFING

Walk-up strata — Manly

A NCAT compliance upgrade under the DBP Act — non-compliant balcony waterproofing identified and replaced by a Class 2 registered practitioner with declared designs, full documentation and compliance declarations at every stage. Full re-waterproofing delivered under one registered practitioner, so the Owners Corporation got a single compliance trail instead of three.

"One registered practitioner across the waterproofing meant one compliance trail — not three. NCAT sign-off was straightforward."

Manly low-rise strata balcony waterproofing project — Atomic ProjectsCLASS 2 · CONCRETE & STRUCTURAL REPAIRS

Mid-rise strata — Killara

Slab-on-ground remediation classified as regulated building work under the DBP Act. Delivered under a Class 2 registered practitioner with declared designs from the appointed engineer, compliance declarations at each stage, and a clear audit trail from design through to construction — every hold point signed off before the next zone opened.

"They handled the compliance paperwork as tightly as the structural work. Every declaration, every sign-off — all in order before we even asked."

Darling Point rooftop waterproofing project — Atomic ProjectsCLASS 2 · BRICKWORK REMEDIATION

Low-rise strata — Alexandria

Bricks detaching from a heritage facade directly above the footpath — a falling-debris risk to pedestrians. Run under a Class 2 registered practitioner: a full restoration program of repointing, brick replacement, crack stitching with stainless steel helicals and corbel rebuilds, with the compliance trail documented throughout. Facade stabilised in two months with zero compromise to the building's original character.

"Bricks were literally falling onto the footpath. They made it safe within days and then restored the whole facade."

One practitioner, one trail

One registered practitioner across the whole job. One clean file.

Stitch a remedial project together from unregistered trades and you get gaps — in the design, in the declarations, in who's accountable when something's questioned years later. We run the whole job under one Class 2 registration: declared designs coordinated, compliance declarations made, one audit trail handed to your OC. When your engineer, your insurer or a future buyer asks for the file, it's complete.

"Three regulated scopes, one registered builder, one compliance trail. That's the difference our committee actually cared about."

Why registration protects your OC.

On regulated Class 2 work, the paperwork isn't admin — it's the protection. Here's the difference.

What it costs

Straight answers on price.

Class 2 remedial works, priced to the scope. Here's a realistic range before you speak to anyone.

$100K – $2M+
Class 2 remedial works, priced to the scope — facade, cladding, concrete, structural or waterproofing. Example: structural slab remediation at Pacific Hwy, Killara ≈ $500K; three integrated regulated scopes at Chandos St, St Leonards ≈ $1M+.

Fixed price, before we start.

After a site assessment you get a line-by-line, engineer-checkable scope — fixed price, fixed timeline, with the declared-design and compliance pathway built in, not bolted on.

We only take strata & commercial remedial projects from $100K.

Risk reversal

Registered, declared, documented. Verify everything.

The whole point of Class 2 is that you don't have to take the builder's word for it. Check ours.

Is this you?

We're a fit for some buildings, not all.

This is for you if…

  • You manage a strata, apartment or commercial building in Sydney
  • Your engineer or council has flagged work that requires Class 2 registration
  • You want declared designs, compliance declarations and an audit trail
  • The project is $100K or more
  • You'd rather one registered practitioner ran the whole job

Probably not us if…

  • It's a single-dwelling home or non-regulated work
  • You want the cheapest builder regardless of registration
  • The job is under $100K
  • You need work outside Sydney
One registered builder across the whole job, one clean compliance file. When our engineer and our insurer asked for the documentation, we had every page. That's what registration actually buys you.

Who you're dealing with

You'll deal with the registered builder himself.

Class 2 registration means my name is on the compliance. I take that seriously — every regulated project we run, I'm the accountable practitioner. Verify Licence 360636C on the NSW Fair Trading register, then send me your engineer's report and I'll tell you exactly what the DBP Act requires for your job.

Common questions

What your committee will want to know.

Our project is small — do we really need a registered practitioner?+
If the work is regulated under the DBP Act on a Class 2 building, then yes — registration is a legal requirement, not a preference. We'll tell you honestly which parts of your scope are regulated and which aren't.
Does registration actually affect the quality of the work, or is it just paperwork?+
Both. Registration means the practitioner works from declared designs, coordinates with registered designers, and makes compliance declarations. That paper trail protects you — but it also means the work is built to a verified design, not made up on site.
How do we check you're actually registered?+
Search Licence 360636C on the NSW Fair Trading register before you call. We put the number on everything precisely so you can verify it independently.
Can you run every scope under one registration?+
Yes — that's the point. One registered practitioner across balconies, facade, cladding, concrete or structural means one declared-design pathway and one compliance trail, instead of gaps between separate trades.
What do we get handed over at the end?+
Declared designs, compliance declarations, engineer-directed QA records and a written warranty — one complete audit trail for your OC's files, your insurer, and any future sale of a unit.
What is a Class 2 building under the DBP Act?+
Class 2 is the National Construction Code classification for apartment-style residential buildings, including mixed-use buildings with a residential component. The Design and Building Practitioners Act attached its registration and declared-design regime to these buildings first, and from July 2026 the same obligations extend to Class 3 and 9c buildings such as boarding houses and residential aged care.
What work on a Class 2 building is regulated under the DBP Act?+
Building work affecting the key elements: structural components, waterproofing, fire safety systems, and elements of the building enclosure. For that work, designs must be declared by registered design practitioners and construction delivered by registered building practitioners, with lodgements made through the NSW portal. Cosmetic repairs sit outside the regime, but most meaningful remedial scopes touch a regulated element.
What is a declared design?+
A design prepared by a registered design practitioner who formally declares it complies with the Building Code of Australia, lodged before the regulated work starts. The builder then declares the work was built to those designs. For an owners corporation, the declarations create an accountability chain: a named, registered practitioner stands behind both the design and the construction.
What happens if you use an unregistered builder on Class 2 remedial work?+
There is no compliant pathway for the work: no declared designs, no practitioner declarations, no lodgements. That leaves the owners corporation without the compliance record the Act expects, which surfaces later through certifiers, insurers, sales and any dispute about the work. Checking a contractor's registration on the public NSW register takes minutes and removes the risk.
When did the DBP Act start applying to remedial work?+
The Act's registration and declaration obligations commenced for Class 2 buildings in 2021, and remedial work touching regulated elements, structure, waterproofing, fire safety and enclosure, has been captured since. From 1 July 2026 the regime extends to Class 3 and 9c buildings, bringing boarding houses, hostels and residential aged care buildings under the same requirements for remedial packages.
