We are accredited BPAD bushfire consultants with the Fire Protection Association of Australia. In addition to this, we are also registered as Consultants with the NSW Rural Fire Service. As a result, we’re qualified to perform NSW BAL Assessments.
As accredited bushfire consultants, we are qualified to perform NSW BAL Assessments to determine the Bushfire Attack Level for your property.
If your property is bushfire affected, Council requires a BAL Assessment to be submitted with your Development Application. Likewise, this BAL rating will become a part of your Construction Certificate approval as different BAL ratings have their own set of requirements.
A BAL assessment measures the potential exposure to ember attack, radiant heat and direct flame contact during a bushfire. As a result, the BAL establishes the requirements for construction to improve protection of the building from bushfire attack.
Why is this necessary? BAL ratings and construction aims to create a safer environment for you and your family.
When purchasing a property, it is also important to know the BAL rating to help you establish construction costs that may be involved if you plan to build or renovate on the subject property.
Located in Jindabyne, we service the local Snowy Monaro region as well as the rest of New South Wales. Therefore, we can assist you with all your bushfire assessment needs for your property and development applications no matter where you are in New South Wales.
