You may need a building consent for cladding work, depending on the scope of the project. If you're replacing old cladding with a new material or altering the external wall structure, consent is often required. This is especially important for weatherproofing, fire safety, and structural compliance under Christchurch building regulations.
Common cases that require consent include:
Changing from one cladding type to another (e.g., timber to fibre cement)
Cladding a new extension or addition
Work that affects structural framing or weathertightness
If you're unsure, it's best to contact your local council and explain your plans. We’re also happy to assist you in checking what approvals are needed for your specific project.
