Bushfire Assessments, Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle
Expert bushfire assessments and BAL certificates to support your planning and approval processes.
Preliminary Advice
Our preliminary advice helps assess project feasibility, often including a BAL-contour plan to show Bushfire Attack Levels across the site. This supports informed decisions on site planning, dwelling placement, and potential design constraints early in the process.
Bushfire Assessments & BAL Certificates
We specialize in providing expertly written reports and certificates to support new developments for both Council and CDC approvals.
Alternate Solutions
Some projects can’t comply with Deemed-to-Satisfy (DtS) provisions. In these cases, we prepare performance-based alternate solutions. Our director, a Level 3 BPAD-accredited practitioner, is qualified to develop and justify these in line with planning regulations and bushfire assessment guidelines.
Bushfire Compliance Certification
We assist with bushfire design compliance throughout the development process — from the Construction Certificate (CC), through Construction, to Occupation Certificate (OC) stage.
pre-DA submissions to NSW Rural Fire Service
We assist with preparing pre-DA bushfire submissions to the NSW Rural Fire Service, helping identify and address potential issues early. This proactive approach can streamline the assessment process and improve development outcomes.
Construction Advice for New and Existing Buildings
We offer expert guidance on BAL construction specifications in AS 3959 and PBP. Whether you're planning a new build or modifying an existing structure, our advice ensures practical, compliant outcomes tailored to your project.
