Consent process

• KDH will obtain the yard building consent prior to starting your build.
• We book and manage all the council inspections during the build process to ensure everything is up to code and passed.
• Once your new home is completed it will have a code of compliance before it leaves our yard.
• Prior to your home arriving onsite, we will obtain the building consent from your local council in the region where the home will be situated.
• Once your home arrives to site, and the drainage, power and water services are connected a final on-site inspection will need to be booked to obtain the final on-site code of compliance. This is where you will play a part, as you will need to book this and supply your local contractors paperwork for the final. The cost of the final inspection as well as any on-site works will be at your cost and are not normally included in the contract.
