Sask Building Standards

The Building and Technical Standards Branch of the Saskatchewan Ministry of Government Relations oversees the administration and enforcement of building construction standards and regulations in the province. The branch ensures compliance with the National Building Code, the National Energy Code for Buildings, and the National Plumbing Code, which take effect from January 1, 2024.

In addition to providing guidance on building bylaws and licensing for building officials, the branch promotes safety through the installation of carbon monoxide and smoke alarms in residential buildings. It also handles appeals regarding construction standards and licenses various trades, including electrical and gas services, to ensure the safe function and operation of buildings across Saskatchewan.
