Any modifications made to house - moving internal walls (even non-load bearing) or changing a boiler location - need approval from building control. This is a rule that you ?must stick to if you ever intend to sell your house. My brother was advised by his solicitor to pull out of a sale as the owner had carried out quite a bit od "DIY", all of which was to an acceptable standard - but hadnt been approved. Retrospective approval can be obtained, but not as easily as getting approval before or during the works.

Important information. ?Would be worth checking out exactly what you can and can't do without permission before getting stuck into any DIY.
I looked in on
www.allrealestate.co.nz a short while ago for the Hamilton/Waikato area, but most of what it threw up was for Taupo area. ?Guess it depends which area you're looking for.
