Building and living
The market town of Guntramsdorf provides support with the implementation of building projects and the search for suitable housing. Forward-thinking planning and compliance with legal requirements ensure a high quality of life and maintain architectural standards in our community. Here you will find all the essential information on planning permission procedures, regulatory requirements and the allocation of housing.
Authorisation of new buildings, extensions and conversions
Under the Lower Austrian Building Regulations, a building permit is required for new builds, extensions and major alterations. Building without the appropriate permit is prohibited and may result in administrative penalties.
Before starting the planning process, you must check with the building authority whether a project requires a planning permission, notification, registration or is exempt from planning permission.
