Bushfire Assessments
If you’re planning to build a home in a bushfire-prone area, a Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) assessment is required. This assessment evaluates how close your property is to bushfire hazards and determines the level of risk through a BAL rating.
Understanding your BAL rating allows your home to be designed and constructed with the appropriate measures to help reduce potential bushfire impact.
