What consent-free means
Under Schedule 1 of the Building Act, a single-storey farm building up to 110sqm does not need a building consent if: it is on land zoned rural; it is no more than 4m high; no span between poles exceeds 6m; it sits at least its own height from boundaries and houses; it is designed for High wind zone or lower; it is not for people to live or work in (Importance Level 1); and it is designed by a Chartered Professional Engineer or built or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner. Every shed above is designed to meet those limits as standard. Centre pole rows keep spans under 6m and eave heights sit under 4m.
What you still need
A PIM from your council. It is cheap and confirms zoning and setbacks for your site. Our engineered drawings and PS1, included with every kitset. A registered electrician for any power. Any plumbing means a building consent. It is the owner's responsibility to confirm the exemption applies to their site. Full detail is on our Building Consent Exemptions page.
