Your project, approved.
Let's make it happen…
Whether you're just starting to think about a project or already knee-deep in the approvals process, I can help you work out exactly what's needed and the best way to get there.
All TerraiQ services are offered on a fixed-fee basis, so you always know what you're up for before we begin.
All fees exclude GST, council and agency charges, and any third-party specialist reports required.
For homeowners.
If you're planning a build, extension, or addition, the first step is knowing what approvals you actually need.
A lot of people are surprised to find that even a shed or carport can require planning or building approvals depending on the site.
Getting clarity early saves time, money, and the stress of finding out halfway through a build.
» Basic Planning Check
Sheds, carports, patios, pools, and minor residential works
Not sure if your project needs approvals?
This is the place to start. I'll review your site, zoning, and proposed works and give you a clear email summary of what's required, what pathway to follow, and what to do next.
Fixed fee: $220 (excl. GST) (Note: Does not include approval process. Upfront advice only).
» Dwelling and Extension Planning
New homes, house extensions, granny flats, dual occupancy and duplexes
For residential projects that require a Development Application, I'll manage the full process from planning report and DA forms through to lodgement and council liaison. Fees are confirmed after a brief scope review and depend on the complexity of the proposal and site.

For developers and investors.
Complex projects need someone who understands the full picture, from feasibility through to approval.
Whether you're subdividing land, changing the use of a commercial property, or exploring a larger development, I bring the kind of inside knowledge that helps you make smarter decisions earlier and avoid costly surprises down the track.
» Subdivision and Reconfiguration of a Lot (ROL)
Lot splits, boundary realignments, amalgamations
Before committing to detailed design or survey work, a Pre-Application Planning Review will confirm whether a subdivision approval is required and identify the most appropriate application pathway.

» Commercial and Industrial Planning
Change of use, new tenancies, commercial development, industrial proposals
A Planning Review and Application Pathway Identification confirms whether a Development Application is required, identifies the correct application type, and highlights key planning risks and referral triggers before you commit to full design or lodgement.

Already in a fix?
Sometimes things don't go to plan. If you've received an enforcement notice, or need to amend an existing approval, I can help you work through it.
There's no judgement here.
These situations are more common than most people realise, and the sooner you get the right advice, the better your options usually are.
» Minor Change to an Existing Approval
If your project has already been approved but circumstances have changed, I can manage a minor change application to update the approval without starting from scratch. Fees are confirmed after a brief scope review.

» Enforcement Notice Assistance
Unauthorised works, earthworks, compliance matters
If you've received an enforcement notice from council, I can review the notice, confirm what approvals are required, identify the best pathway to resolve the matter, and manage the application process through to resolution.
A staged approach is available so you can get early advice before committing to full application management.
