Gives great advice, very knowledgeable and practical!

Dave is incredibly helpful, fantastic resource to navigate the council consent world. Would recommend him to anyone.

Our CoA was quite a process to obtain, and Dave kept us on track right to the end. Great experience working with Dave, and a successful outcome. Thank-you for achieving this for us Dave. Cheers Gordon

Dave was incredibly prompt and professional in helping us obtain a Certificate of Acceptance (COA) for our home in Te Atatu, where a laundry had been converted into a bathroom. The whole process was smooth and took only a few weeks from start to finish. He kept us informed throughout and made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward. Couldn’t recommend him enough – thanks again, Dave!

Exceptional service, very knowledgable, clear and friendly advice. Highly recommend!!!

Dave did a great job getting out coa. Very knowledgeable and professional!!! ?????

We had a very short time frame to get CCC done for lapsed consent. Dave got it done a month quicker than we had even hoped was possible. Made it seem easy and is a master at lowering the stress. Dave knows how to work with the council and cuts through the confusing paperwork. Thank you so much for helping us out, it was a result we hadn't dreamed was possible. i happily recommend Dave's services to family and friends. Andy

If you're feeling overwhelmed about applying for a Certificate of Acceptance (COA), I highly recommend getting in touch with Dave. He helped me apply for a COA for my house in a very short time and made the whole process much easier. Whether you need guidance or someone to handle the paperwork and deal with the council on your behalf, Dave can take care of it. I highly recommend his services — well worth the investment!

Dave is totally worth his weight in gold! The fear of going through the council and doing the COA on our own was daunting. Luckily we found Dave and he took all the stress out of our hands. "Dont worry- it'll be alright" is his favourite phrase. He did the job efficiently and told us exactly what we needed to do on our side. He organises everything for you. The process is not as easy as you may think - you need a professional who knows what they are doing & Dave is the man to get it done for U

This job was for CoA for tiled bathrooms. I cannot recommend Dave highly enough. 10/10 for communication, professionalism, and getting the job done right! Dave turned a very stressful situation into a manageable one and talked me through the process step by step, keeping me informed all the way through. I am grateful to have found such a reliable, knowledgeable, friendly, professional to help me with gaining this CoA. Krystal

We cannot recommend Dave highly enough! From the very beginning, he was professional and knowledgeable. He made what initially felt like a daunting and stressful task feel straightforward and manageable. What really stood out was how proactive and thorough he was in dealing with the council on our behalf. He handled all the communication, kept us informed every step of the way, and ensured that everything was completed as quickly and smoothly as possible.

How hard can it be to get a COA? Maybe not that hard, but very time consuming when you don't know your way around the process. Dave made obtaining a COA for a minor dwelling a breeze, and stress free, and saved me countless hours getting through the consenting process. Can't rate Dave highly enough.

Dave from CCC Building Services was excellent to work with. He was diligent, professional, and guided us through the process of obtaining a Certificate of Acceptance (COA) for our bathrooms. He explained everything clearly, was responsive to questions, and ensured the paperwork was done to a high standard. The process was smooth thanks to his expertise. Highly recommend Dave for any building compliance or council approval needs.

We’re incredibly grateful to Dave for the support we received in securing a fast CoA for our bathroom. The process can be stressful and time-consuming, but thanks to Dave, everything was handled swiftly and professionally. He was knowledgeable and kept us updated every step of the way. His experience navigating the consent system made all the difference, and we truly appreciate how well he got things sorted for us. Recommend his services for CoA or any other building compliance matters.

Our property had 2 bedrooms and bathroom and deck added with no CCC. Another consultant advised it was to risky to mess with. Dave provided good initial consultation and clear advice as to process to rectify. He oversaw work and linked in contractors as needed. Managed council well and helped manage costs. Successfully gained COA and peace of mind. Dave stepped us through a complex range of issues with his building and process knowledge. Very reasonable fees - highly recommended. Tim and Sarah

Dave has been absolutely amazing !!! We were in a very stressed state and Dave was so calm and put us at ease straight away. Nothing was a problem and he went above and beyond to help us. He sorted out our COA for a removed wall, relocated bathroom, relocated kitchen, relocated laundry and new toilet in our 100 year old house. Dave also drew new plans as the latest set Council had were dated 1927!! I can't recommend him highly enough!! Thank you so so much Dave.

I highly recommend Dave. Right from the first conversation, Dave gave us awesome information and navigated the process with council for us. His testing and inspection of the house as well as the docs he supplied to council were excellent and the COA was approved without any delay. Thanks for all your help and reassuring us during a stressful time. Regards, Tim.

After discovering we needed a COA for our tiled shower we contacted Dave for advice. He has been so helpful, and we have called him numerous times for advice. He and his tiler, Andrew, both came and gave advice and suggestions for rectifying our issues. Can not recommend Dave highly enough for his helpfulness and nothing was ever a problem. Stuart & Diane, Browns Bay

Dave was excellent to work with and helped our family get a CCC for a kitchen addition. Dave is trustworthy, responsive, friendly and professional. There were some significant time pressures to obtain the CCC from Council as our house was under contract. He made a potentially stressful process hassle free. Our family is enormously grateful to Dave as we were able to sell our home after receiving CCC. All done in record time. We would 100% recommend Dave without hesitation.

Dave has been fantastic to work with. He assisted in getting a COA for unconsented work at our property. Reliable, trustworthy and friendly throughout the whole process. Absolutely recommend him and his services. Thanks for making the process as stress free as possible Dave.

I had a great experience working with Dave for the unconsent work at my property. He helped me gain the COA and was a reliable and trustworthy professional throughout the process. I appreciate all the effort he put in and highly recommend his services. Thank you, Dave!

I've had some bad experiences with tradies in the past, but Dave was great. Honest, diligent and a good communicator. Achieved a good result and kept me up to date during the CoA process. Cheers Dave

Third party property report by Dave. Great work & a genuine person. You are lucky if you find him. I gave up on the requirements of the consent work for old renovations done ages ago. All Thanks to Dave for driving that far & putting confidence in me. The way Dave managed & work through the process with WDC wasn't easy. He kept chasing them & achieved the required consent work.Dave has Great knowledge towards all the consent works plus his charges are reasonable & worth it for his quality work.

When were told we needed to attain a COA, I simply googled those three little letters. Up came an image of Dave at his workboard and, after a quick phone call and a site visit, he was in. He went above and beyond for us and has a vast knowledge of Council and the intricacies of what is needed in the process. We now have our much-needed COA. Thank you so much Dave - for your patience and persistence - we are very grateful and it was a pleasure working with you.

Dave and his vast knowledge has been brilliant in the journey of successfully attaining a COA for our house. He worked through the different hurdles needed from understanding the brief, knowing the process, what level of compliance needed and interacting with tradies. Highly recommend Dave and CCC BUILDING SERVICES LTD

Dave did an amazing job. He was so efficient and professional. We renovated our bathroom and got a new shower and tub in the laundry. Dave helped us make sure everything was squared away before going to council so we wouldn't have any push back from them and we didn't. It was so good that council didn't even need to come for a site visit and all the documents and photos were sufficient. Thanks Dave

David helped steer me efficiently through an old building Consent from 2006 through Council with a great result. Highly recommend his expert assistance for anyone trying to navigate the CCC process.

I highly recommend Dave for his exceptional assistance in obtaining our CCC. When we were stuck between an unhelpful builder and a bewildering council, Dave stepped in as our saviour. He took immediate ownership of the situation, demonstrating a deep understanding of council operations and the right contacts to make things happen. With Dave's expertise, we successfully secured our CCC, and I wholeheartedly endorse his invaluable support for anyone seeking assistance with similar challenges.

Highly recommend Dave. He managed the process and dealings with council and the COA was approved with no issues. Could not have been an easier process.

Dave was highly recommended to us, and he did not disappoint. From the first call to the issuance of the Certificate of Acceptance, Dave was professional, practical, and delivered what we agreed. He clearly has an intimate knowledge of the relevant legislation and the workings of Council. Being an LBP was invaluable, as Dave undertook some building work onsite that finding a builder for was proving very difficult. We would highly recommend Dave to anyone looking for a CoA from Auckland Council.

What a godsend this man is, honest and knowledgeable. First contact through a phone call he explained the whole situation and steps of the process we needed to do to sort out our problem with unauthorised works. I recommend Dave 100%.

I was put onto Dave through a Real Estate Agent. He came out to the property to look at the unconsented works on the property and talked me through the process of obtaining a COA from the Council. His knowledge of the process and the legislation was excellent. He was professional in his manner and extremely reassuring of what needs to get done in order for everything to get sorted. I highly recommend Dave.

We used Dave during a stressful time needing urgent COA on our property. He worked diligently and navigated a lot of uncertainty with new legislation, keeping us informed every step of the way. Our situation was gnarly, and ever-evolving. He was compassionate, easy to get hold of, and proactive with problem solving. He wholeheartedly cares about his customers. Highly recommend him!

Dave was very helpful doing all the work and getting CCC for us . Always available on the phone whenever we need to ask something. Highly recommend.

I was in a state of panic, I never realised that the installer that installed the fireplace 25 years prior had never applied for the CCC that we had actually paid for. COA looked like the only option. Found CCC Building Services on the net, Dave gave me heaps of free advice on what I needed to do but for me it was all to hard, so I asked Dave to handle everything. BEST MOVE EVER!!! Dave said nope we can get a CCC and within 15 working days I had a CCC. Dave is a Legend, thanks so much

I bought a new house with an unconsented storage area in my house and could not get it complied, all those involved pointed the finger of blame at each other. Dave turned up and sorted it all out and I got a Certificate of Acceptance from Auckland Council. Dave's tenacity was incredible - he never gave up. I would totally recommend Dave to anyone requiring his services - he went above and beyond for us.

I employed Dave to get a bedroom in the garage consented to be a legal habitable space. He made the whole process SO easy. Keep me updated as to progress regularly. Co-ordinated getting work done with the tenant. It made a process that for a lay person is very complicated and time consuming possible. I would never have got the COA if it was left to me, so big thanks to Dave. Money well spent.

I would highly recommend Dave for any COA work that needs doing. He has great communication and goes above and beyond to get the job done in a professional manner.

I can recommend Dave if you need COA to be done. He is friendly, takes away all of the hassle, and gets everything sorted quickly. Dave is a pleasure to deal with.

I couldn't recommend Dave more, we were very lucky to come across him after discovering a consent issue with our house we are selling. Dave was able to walk us through exactly what we needed to do, giving great advice and reassurance. When other contractors weren't coming through quick enough he was all over chasing them up. Thankyou Dave.

We had some un-consented changes with new bathrooms in our house. Unlike quotes from other companies who only write a COA report, CCC Building Services drew the plans, wrote the COA report, tidied up some little jobs, chased up all the tradesman/files and handled the submission to Council. This worked out much easier and cheaper than getting a COA report and trying to project manage it all myself. Pay the money, get it done properly, Dave takes the stress out of it. Recommended to all.

My partner and I are first home buyers and we were looking at buying a property with an unconsented second toilet. We had been calling the council and other companies to get an idea of how much it would cost for us to get a CoA or Consent but were having no luck. Dave was very friendly and helped answer all of our questions. He really helped us to understand what our options were and explained everying in a way which put us back in control. 100% would recomend working with Dave!

We were put in contact with Dave by a real estate agent. We purchased a 3 brm 1 bathroom property with a non- consented garage to sleepout conversion connected to our house. Dave gave us a letter for the bank to say it should be able to get a COA and he and his trade contacts did all the work required, submitted the Certificate of Acceptance application to council and now it is a legal habitable space comprising of 4 brm and 2 bathroom. Dave have done an amazing job. We have no problem at all

I purchased a modest unfinished small house. It had an old outstanding building consent,build information was missing. I hired an architect to make the house  bigger. By not amending the original historic consent & adding new building works to it. I started a new building consent to do the build. Unbeknown to us the old building consent with no CCC stuck to the property file & proved difficult to get signed off. Dave succeeded where others failed & helped us get this resolved & signed off.

Dave has worked with the council on our behalf to obtain two CCC’s for a minor dwelling built 18 yrs ago and an addition done over 25 yrs ago. He dealt with all problems that were uncovered – electrical, cladding queries and a major drainage issue to name some. He kept us updated throughout the process and always had the skills and contacts to tackle everything. Dave did a fantastic job; we could never have achieved this so seamlessly and quickly on our own. Thank you Dave!

Dave is great. Initially made contact for help with a COA but after talking it through we decided it was best to replace the original bathroom. Dave did most of the work himself, even after hours. Great communication and kept us updated with timeframe and cost. Definitely worth a call if you want honest and helpful advice for dealing with council. Thanks Dave.

Dave was fantastic. Right away expectations were set, timeframes were realistic and understood as were the costs. He was always available to address any concerns or help with guidance when necessary. He was on site when needed and always timely. He even took a load of rubbish to the tip for us !! Talk about above and beyond. I'll have no trouble recommending Dave and would go on to say even if we didn't get our COA, that I'd have still written this same review. He did get it for us though :-D
