Building Services Authority Website
The Building Services Authority (BSA) is a statutory authority established under the Building Services Authority Act 1991.
The BSA's charter is to regulate the building industry through the licensing of contractors, educate consumers about their rights and obligations, make contractors aware of their legal rights and responsibilities, handle disputes fairly and equitably, protect consumers against loss through statutory insurance, implement and enforce legislative reforms and where necessary prosecute persons not complying with the law.

The new contracts are available immediately for free download or may be purchased in hard copy from any BSA office or via the Contract Order Form on this website.
Audits Protect Homeowners and Licensees
The BSA has recently conducted audits in regions affected by flooding and regularly conducts audits in areas affected by natural disasters.
These random compliance audits at building sites throughout Queensland help to protect homeowners from unlicensed contractors, protect licensed contractors from unfair competition and maintain building standards. The BSA's inspectors check that contractors are licensed, that compliant contracts are in place and that home warranty insurance premiums have been paid where applicable.
Remember, if a contractor can't show you their licence, show them the door.
