Installing new plumbing or renovating your bathroom?
You may need to lodge a Plumbing Application - download our Plumbing Application Checklist to ensure you have all the paperwork required. You can access the plumbing forms you will need from the Queensland Government Department of Housing and Public Works webpage.
Please note: New legislation states that some low risk work can use “Fast Track Application”, however, Cook Shire Council has opted out by resolution at an Ordinary Council Meeting held on November 25 2019 and all plumbing applications are processed under the mandatory standard application process.
