Frequently Asked Questions About This Service

What work does a site preparation permit cover?

The preliminary works before construction — initial excavation, levelling and setting the site up for execution — in line with the manual for preparing and fencing construction sites.

Do I need one if the building permit is already issued?

It is required when preliminary work starts before the building permit process is complete, or where the municipality requires it to regulate the project's start. The engineering office determines whether it applies to your case.

How does it relate to the fencing permit?

The two usually run together: fencing secures the site boundary while site preparation readies the ground for construction. Both regulate the project's start and protect the surroundings.

What is the risk of excavating without authorisation?

Beyond violations and a stop-work order, unregulated excavation can damage buried utilities or neighbouring buildings — and that liability rests entirely with the owner.
