Talk To Expert

Current Code Compliance

We check your building against today’s BCA, not the version it was approved under, so you can see exactly what’s compliant and what isn’t.

Development Consent Check

We cross-check DA and CC approvals to identify legacy conditions or missed items that could trigger future upgrade requirements.

Fire Safety
Gaps

We compare your building’s fire safety measures with the latest NCC and relevant orders to highlight any missing or outdated provisions.

Risk Prioritisation
Plan

We don’t just list defects, we help you rank compliance gaps by risk and stage them across budgets, leases, or asset plans.

Brentnall BCA helps you understand issues without reading NCC clauses. See what to fix now, and what can wait.

  • Identify non-compliant works
  • Reduce risk of upgrade orders

  • Our Process

How We Work With You

Step 1

Review What’s Approved

We start by checking DA and CC consents, then confirm if what’s built matches what’s been approved, or where it doesn’t

Step 2

Inspect What’s Built

We walk the site with current NCC in mind. Not to tick boxes, but to spot gaps and fire safety risks before Council does.

Step 3

Report What Matters

You’ll get a straight-up report: what’s wrong, why it matters, and what to fix now vs later, aligned to your asset goals..

Why Choose Us?

  • We Know Where Councils Look

With decades of BCA compliance experience, we understand exactly what Council officers focus on—and we audit your building through that same lens.

  • We Review the Whole Picture

Most audits just look at today’s Code. We overlay current BCA with DA approvals, fire orders, and staged upgrades to show what’s actually at risk.

  • You Get a Staged Risk Roadmap

We don’t give you a long list of issues. We show which ones matter, what triggers them, and how they can be phased into your capex or lease strategy

We assess fire safety, structure, egress and key BCA items – plus past DA/CC conditions. No plumbing or access unless scoped.

 Schedules show what’s listed. We check what’s missing or outdated. Most buildings have gaps they’re not aware of.

Yes. We show what’s non-compliant now, what’s low risk, and what can be planned over time with cost and asset impact in mind.

Yes. While not a formal certification, our audit supports BCA strategy and compliance planning with consultants or Council.
