LBP Skills Maintenance – Invercargill
PlaceMakers is pleased to announce its upcoming skills maintenance session in Invercargill for Licensed Building Practitioners! This two-hour session – which includes two speakers and two short quizzes – is designed to help you stay up to speed with updates to Clause H1 of the Building Code, build on your business growth and performance skills and earn skills maintenance points.
Plus we’ll be joined by the team from PlaceMakers Plus to tell you about the incredible overseas experiences we’re planning for 2026 and how you can be part of the action.
We’ll also share exciting updates coming early next year to the PlaceMakers Plus loyalty platform, with more ways to earn, redeem, and travel than ever before.
Last but not least, it’s a chance to catch up and enjoy some food and drinks with other LBPs from around the region! Food will be provided.
Building Code updates
Mid last year, Building and Construction Minister Chris Penk signalled that further changes to Clause H1 of the Building Code were needed and, in December 2024, MBIE opened consultation on potential refinements. These included removing the Schedule Method, adjusting minimum R-values in the Calculation Method, increasing compliance flexibility, and reviewing framing ratio assumptions that affect insulation performance.
Following this, the Government announced that the Schedule Method will be removed as a compliance pathway by the end of 2025, leaving only the Calculation and Modelling methods to demonstrate insulation performance. However, no further changes were announced at the time. MBIE has confirmed that any further adjustments to H1 are expected to be confirmed in November.
At this seminar, any confirmed changes will be discussed, and two product suppliers will demonstrate how their products can help achieve energy efficiency compliance – or better – through their product solutions.
The Professional Builder
Get ready to learn from the best – James Fisher, Top Performance Coach, and Josh Davies, Top Growth Advisor from The Professional Builder, are bringing their proven insights to our upcoming builder seminar. Fresh from delivering NZ’s Profit & Cashflow roadshows, these dynamic presenters deliver practical, game-changing business management guidance.
Expol
Expol Technical Sales manager Wayne Watson will be discussing foundations and under slab insulation, which will include a range of Expol products such as Tuff-Pods, H-Grade VH Grade Thermaslab sheets, Slabx200 & ThermSlab Edge Insulation.
