Do I need Council Approval to build a Shed in NSW?
In NSW, if you require council approval depends on a few factors such as the size, shed location and what you will be using the structure for. Many smaller, standard sheds can be built without council approval while larger or more complex structures may require council approval. Generally speaking, if your build meets the below conditions, it could meet exemptions and won’t need approval, remembering that every council across Australia builds and approves to a different set of rules. We can assist with the council process and advise accordingly.
You generally don’t need council approval if:
- The build floor area is 20 square meters or less
- It is no higher than 3 metres above grand level
- It is set back at least 900mm from the property boundaries
- It is not located in front of the house
- The build is for domestic purposes
- It doesn’t have any living areas or bathrooms
- The property exists under a residential zone
- There are no heritage or environmental restrictions on the site
