New Building Consent: Toilet Legalisation + SHUB + Optional Full Secondary Dwell

Hi LBP Draughtsmen/Architectural Designers, I'm Kevin, owner of a cross-lease flat in Torbay (Tallington Crescent). I have an existing 2019 consent where the double garage was convertered to a consented bedroom and en-suite Now I need quotes for a new building consent for the following internal work (no external changes, no new floor area, plumbing ties to existing stack, DC estimator shows $0): Quote 1 – Simple Scope: Upstairs toilet reconnection/legalization (existing unconsented toilet, pipes capped – reconnect water/sewer, confirm compliance). Upstairs SHUB swap (replace shower with bath + shower over – likely exempt, include if needed). Quote 2 – Full Scope (Secondary Dwelling): Quote 1 + downstairs kitchenette in existing consented laundry nook (utility sink + bench + fixed electric oven + induction cooktop + ducted rangehood + combo washer-dryer + fridge). Full advice on how to make downstairs a separate/secondary dwelling (fire separation for internal stairs, parking/access, outdoor space, any resource consent risk, structure checks, ancillary vs secondary framing, etc.). What I need from you: On-site measure-up (available now). New consent plans/documentation (as-built + proposed, updating sheets like A5 lower floor, A5.1 drainage, ground floor for upstairs). Producer statements (PS1/PS2 if required). Lodgement and council communication until approved. Clear advice on secondary dwelling risks/costs (fire rating, resource consent, rates impact) for Quote 2. I have full 2019 consented plans (Uniq Concept) and photos. Happy to share Google Drive link. Please quote for both options separately, availability for site visit, and any initial thoughts on scope. Target: Lodge late Feb/early March 2026. Thanks,
