Council Building Notice &
Order Consultations in Victoria

At EBC Group, we understand that receiving a Council Building Notice or Order can be a daunting experience for property owners and managers.

Our Victoria-wide Council Building Notice & Order Consultation service is designed to provide expert guidance and tailored solutions to help you navigate and resolve compliance issues efficiently and effectively.

Understanding Building Notices and Building Orders in Victoria

A building notice is generally the first step a council will take if they believe building work does not comply with the law or poses a safety risk. If issues are not resolved, a building order may follow, requiring immediate rectification. If you’ve been asking yourself what a building notice is, or what happens after one is issued, our team can explain your obligations clearly and guide you through each step.

In Victoria, building notices and orders are governed under the Building Regulations 2018 , particularly Part 8, along with the Building Act 1993 . These frameworks give councils the authority to issue notices where non-compliance or safety concerns exist, and they set out strict timelines for responding. Understanding the Building Act 1993 is crucial for property owners and managers across Victoria.
