I suppose as a builder you could appreciate the reason plans have to be submitted and rules adhered to when building a house. Also the are certain aspects of building that can only legally be done by an authorised contractor. There has been comprehensive development year after year to set standards. They dont let anyone knock up a bit of a renovation without approved plans even if its built "stronger" or "better" than the minimal requirements of the law.... Same goes with vehicle modifications.
