9/15/2013

0 Comments

 
New plumbing laws were introduced on the 1st of November 2012. This new category of plumbing and drainage work called is called a form 4 ‘notifiable work' also known as minor work. This has started in Queensland to reduce red tape, delays and costs for licensees, local governments and consumers. 

What is notifiable work? This is the amount of work a plumber or drainer can carry out without a local government certificate or any requirement for mandatory inspections.

Notifiable work includes most plumbing and drainage in existing homes and can also be done on some commercial buildings as well. Examples include:

  • kitchen and bathroom additions and renovations
  • installing or replacing hot water heaters including electric, solar or heat pump hot water heaters
  • installing additional fixtures such as toilets, showers and sinks
  • Extending or altering pipe work.
