Commonly Asked Questions
Does my Campbelltown property require a wildfire consultant?
Yes, you will require a bushfire assessment before submitting a development application if your site is designated as bushfire-prone, which is the case in many parts of Campbelltown. With a simple check, we can verify this and advise you on the following steps to take.
How is my BAL rating calculated?
When we visit your location, we assess the slope, the surrounding vegetation, and the distance to any potential fire sources. This aids in determining your BAL rating, which determines the construction requirements for your building.
When can I expect to receive my BAL report?
After the site visit, we typically complete the majority of BAL reports within 3–5 business days. Please let us know if you have a strict deadline; we frequently fulfil last-minute requests.
Can you assist me in answering RFS or council feedback?
Of course. If further explanation is required during the DA process, we may update or clarify your wildfire report, as we collaborate closely with Campbelltown Council and the RFS.
Do I still require a BAL report if I'm building a granny flat?
Indeed, in regions that are prone to bushfires, even modest constructions like sheds or granny flats may need to undergo a bushfire assessment. We'll help you understand the exact specifications required for your specific build.
