How to get the approval of building plans and work permits

1. Owner must finalize the design of renovation before hire someone to do a submission
2. If contractor volunteer to do the submission, ask them which architect/building draughtman they use and LAM Registered No.
3. If necessary, owner must hire an engineer to do some calculation, report and structure drawing. (depends on Local Authorities)
4. Owner must prepare some documents for submission such as cukai taksiran, S&P, existing CF etc.
5. Consultation fees :-

RM2500-RM3000 includes architecture endorsement, site survey, building plan drawing, documentation and traveling.

Owner must prepare some cash around RM1000-RM2000 for deposit, processing fees, tong RORO (construction waste bin) depends on scale of renovation. Deposit will be returned when construction is completed. But for DBKL, no deposit required. Just pay RM100 for renovation less than 1000sqft (CODE B2)

6. Approval/Work Permit usually takes about 7-30days depends on ‘Piagam Pelanggan’ from Local Authorities.

Additional Info:-

Basic building setback for terrace :-
a) front - 20' clear from wall to boundary (main gate)
b) back - can extend to end of boundary
c) side (corner lot) - 10' clear from wall to boundary
d) side (end lot) - 5' clear from wall to boundary

The different thing between architect and building draughtsman (BD) is , BD are limited to specifying area only and the fees therefore a bit cheaper than architect.

Do not pay to enforcement if they ask for ‘kawtim’. Report to Local Authorities if happen.

Do not start work before get an approval/work permit. If not, you will be fined as much as 10x depends on your processing fees.

Do not trust contractor if they can ‘kawtim’ with Local Authorities. Some of them didn’t do a submission and if caught, owner will be responsible.

Architect is the person who will be responsible for the probability of future. They knows about UBBL and buildings.

Just pay a little bit for pleasure in the future...

Hi..what kind of extension are u doing?area? depends on Majlis. Some Majlis require CCC from architect and some only require for extension above 1000sqft. Basically, CCC/CF can increase your house value.

PMed

PMed

PMed

Yes, consider as extension and u need to hire architect & engineer.

Yes, u need to demolish front wall to 20' (6.096m) for setback. Or u can make rayuan to DBKL for as-built drawing and pay penalty 20x from processing fees.

For semi-D with no backlane u can extend only 5' and another 5' reserve for building setback.

Yes, kebuk sampah has to be within the main gate pillar. if u demolish that box to make ur gate wide, u need to submit rayuan to Perbadanan Pengurusan Sisa Pepejal Dan Pembersihan Awam (PPSPPA).

PMed

Yes u can. but u need to submit your rayuan and location plan for new meter to Syabas.

My first question - what kind of extension r u doing?base on my experience liaise with MBPJ, deposit for house renovation only Rm100 not RM1000.

Since 2007, CCC are implemented to replace CF.

Normally architect will prepare documents for CCC including Borang B, Borang G1-G21 (Contractor need to sign this form). Your architect knows about this.

CCC are important when something happen to your house. Insurance agent will come to your house and inspect whether your new extension build as per drawing or not.

What type of your house? for double storey terrace u need to pay deposit RM1000 and refundable if your renovation same as approval plan.

PMed

Yes u need to apply permit from MBPJ.

PMed

Yes u can extend maximum 3 storey. Where is your location?

Hi..sorry for late reply.

No need to apply permit for internal works. but if there are changes on structure and wall u need to submit a plan.

Yes u need to pay the summon 5x from processing fees. let say your processing fees RM200 x 5 = RM1000.
The extension also must not exceed the setback line. if not, the are another summon.
