    Belief changes to certifications and inspections for builders -- is a step in the right direction

    Belief changes to certifications and inspections for builders -- is a step in the right direction

    29 April 2025
    Legislation introduced by the end of this year will see approved building firms, drain layers, and plumbers allowed to sign off their own work on smaller residential dwellings.

    Certified Builders Chief Executive Malcolm Fleming says the Government's missed an opportunity to introduce a quality mark for builders.

    He says that would give homeowners the confidence a builder has the credentials to do the job well.
