Hi all,
A question regarding consent and kitchens.
I have read the 2004 BA and the 2016 amended "Guidance: Building work that does notrequire a building consent" I'm massively confused.
It seems the intent of the document is that if you move a plumbed item from 1 location to the other:
As long as the move doesn't significantly change the function of the pipes (like extending them 10m etc)
AND you're not adding any additional items into the plumbing (like an extra sink or toilet)
AND you have the work done by a cert plumber
You don't need consent.
I would like to move my kitchen from 1 room to across the hallway and the distance to the gulley trap is the same.
Do I need a consent?
