Sydney: Council Delays, CBD Logistics, Premium Costs
Council DA approval takes 4-8 weeks (CBD can stretch to 10-12 weeks). Quality contractors book 3-4 months out; CBD specialists book 4-6 months ahead. Costs: $35-$61/sqft AUD (highest in Australia). Material delivery to CBD towers requires advance coordination with building management.
Market realities:
- CBD/Barangaroo: High-rise logistics specialists. Lift booking $300-800/day. Waste removal expensive. Security clearances for some buildings. Book early.
- Surry Hills/Redfern Creative: Warehouse conversion pros. Heritage overlays can add 4-8 weeks to approvals. Less delivery headaches than CBD.
- North Sydney/Parramatta: Faster council approvals (3-5 weeks), better contractor availability, 10-15% lower costs than CBD.
NCC compliance strict—verify contractor knows codes. Summer (Dec-Feb) is slow season (better availability, pricing). ABW designs common—ensure contractor has experience.
