If you’re planning to build, renovate or start a business in the Shoalhaven Council area, our town planners can help you prepare a strong application that meets local planning rules.

We’ve supported projects throughout Nowra, Vincentia, Huskisson, Ulladulla, Bomaderry, Sanctuary Point, Sussex Inlet, Milton, Callala Bay and Basin View.

Our services include Development Applications (DAs), Statements of Environmental Effects, Clause 4.6 variation requests and Section 4.55 modifications. Whether you’re proposing a secondary dwelling, dual occupancy, subdivision, commercial fit-out or change-of-use, we tailor our documentation to meet the Shoalhaven LEP and DCP requirements.

Shoalhaven Council’s planning controls can be complex, especially for properties near the coast, flood zones, bushfire-affected areas or within heritage precincts. We have experience preparing applications for new dwellings in Vincentia and Sanctuary Point, mixed-use and shopfront conversions in Nowra, and light industrial projects in Ulladulla and South Nowra.

We also coordinate supporting reports such as bushfire assessments, stormwater plans and waste management plans when required.

Our in-house drafting team ensures architectural plans and planning documentation are consistent and council-ready.

Whether you’re a homeowner in Sussex Inlet, a developer in Bomaderry or a small business owner in Milton, we’ll guide your application through the process efficiently.
