Sydney Water Building Plan Approvals
Sydney Water Building Plan Approvals
Most developments in the Sydney urban area are required by councils to obtain a Sydney Water Tap In approval letter (formerly known as Quick check) prior to deliverance of CC or other certification documents. Ausflow can assist you with obtaining this initial automatic assessment letter from Sydney Water’s online portal as this is the first step of the Sydney Water Building Plan Approval process.
Projects that are automatically picked up by Sydney Water’s Tap In algorithm as they might have a potential impact on Sydney Water owned assets (such as sewer pipes, manholes, ventshafts or watermains) must be referred to a Water Servicing Coordinator (WSC) to assist with the process of the Sydney Water Building Plan Approval.
Ausflow’s coordination and design departmentis fully accredited by Sydney Water for all WSC services, including the Sydney Water Building Plan Approval applications. Throughout the process, our experimented team ensures our clients achieve the best outcome within Sydney Water’s requirements: we provide project specific consultancy relevant to the challenges of each development, and our specialists’ extensive knowledge of guidelines and solutions will make your Sydney Water’s Building Plan Approval requirement the least stressful it can be.
The keys to a smooth experience are early commitment and complete documentation.

1. Peg-Out / Service Protection Report (our peg out department can assist with this)
