Mayfair Compliance Solutions is a specialist consultancy focused exclusively on the preparation of Performance Solutions under the National Construction Code. We assist project teams in navigating complex compliance challenges through evidence based assessment and practical project understanding.
Founded in 2024, Mayfair Compliance Solutions is a specialist Performance Solutions consultancy dedicated to delivering practical, innovative and commercially focused compliance outcomes across Australia. We partner with architects, developers, builders and design consultants to develop alternative compliance pathways that satisfy the Performance Requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC) while preserving the original design intent.
Since our establishment, Mayfair has successfully delivered hundreds of projects across the residential, commercial, industrial and mixed use sectors. Our experience spans bespoke residential homes, apartment developments, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, education projects and complex high rise developments.
Our multidisciplinary team of Registered Building Surveyors, Chartered Engineers and specialist consultants provides expertise across Performance Solutions, building compliance, façade engineering, accessibility, waterproofing, civil engineering and drainage. By combining a broad range of technical disciplines under one roof, we deliver integrated compliance solutions for projects of all sizes and complexities.
At Mayfair, we believe compliance should support great design rather than restrict it. Our focus is on providing practical, evidence based solutions that assist project teams in overcoming complex regulatory challenges, minimising redesign and delivering successful project outcomes with confidence.
Our team brings together registered building surveyors, registered engineers and qualified waterproofing design professionals with experience across residential and commercial developments.
By combining diverse technical backgrounds and practical project experience, we develop Performance Solutions that respond to the unique requirements of each project.

Our assessments are developed around the specific design objectives, project constraints and performance outcomes relevant to each proposal.
Rather than relying upon standardised reporting methodologies, we apply evidence based assessment methods to support practical alternative compliance pathways that maintain design intent and constructability.
The National Construction Code provides flexibility for innovative design, however project outcomes do not always align with prescriptive pathways.
Mayfair was established to provide a dedicated Performance Solution service focused on helping project teams realise practical and compliant outcomes where standard approaches are not suitable.
We believe Performance Solutions should be project specific, practical to construct and supported by clear technical reasoning.
We work collaboratively with architects, developers, owners, builders and engineers to support innovative design outcomes and practical alternative compliance pathways across residential and commercial developments.
No mystery, no scope creep — just a predictable path from enquiry to approved report.
We review the project objectives, design information and identified variation to determine the relevant NCC Performance Requirements and project constraints.
An assessment framework is developed having regard to the NCC Assessment Methods and applicable evidence sources to determine an appropriate pathway for evaluation.
The proposal is assessed using project specific analysis and supporting evidence to determine whether the intended Performance Requirements are achieved
The findings are documented within a Performance Solution report including the assessment methodology, outcomes and any implementation requirements relevant to the assessed design.
Whether you’re dealing with a design constraint, alternative construction method or NCC variation, these are some of the most common questions we receive from project teams. If you have a project specific enquiry, get in touch to discuss your proposal.
A Performance Solution is an alternative compliance pathway permitted under the National Construction Code (NCC). It allows a design that does not satisfy the Deemed-to-Satisfy provisions to be assessed against the relevant Performance Requirements using evidence based assessment methods.
A Performance Solution may be required where a design incorporates innovative architecture, alternative construction methods, site constraints or technical variations from the prescriptive NCC provisions. Common examples include access, basement construction, weatherproofing of facade, drainage, amenity and alternative building products.
We prepare Performance Solutions across a broad range of NCC matters including access and accessibility, weatherproofing, waterproofing, drainage, amenity, facade systems and alternative construction methodologies.
In many cases, yes. Performance Solutions are intended to provide an alternative pathway where project objectives cannot be achieved through strict compliance with the Deemed-to-Satisfy provisions. Each proposal is assessed on its individual merits.
Timeframes vary depending on project complexity and the level of assessment required. Most Performance Solutions are completed within 5 business days following receipt of the required documentation, with initial project reviews often commencing within a few business days of engagement.
We understand that project programmes can be time sensitive and will work collaboratively with clients to establish delivery timeframes that align with project requirements wherever practicable.
Typically, we require architectural drawings, a description of the design issue and any relevant consultant documentation. In most cases, we can provide a fixed fee proposal within one business day.
Most Performance Solutions begin with a conversation.
Send us your drawings, project information and the specific design challenge. We’ll review the proposal and provide a fixed fee quotation and realistic delivery timeframe, typically within one business day.
