Turn your supervised experience into a Tasmanian builder licence application.
If you have the qualifications and supervised experience to step up, BLS helps identify the Tasmanian builder class and prepare the project history, supervisor details and documents for CBOS.
How builder licensing works in Tasmania.
Consumer, Building and Occupational Services (CBOS) licenses building services providers in Tasmania. Builder licences are divided into General Construction, Fire Protection Services Builder and Demolisher classes, with subclasses that set the type and size of work. Each application needs the qualification and supervised experience required for the selected class.
