Importance of Flame Zone Builds in the Sutherland Shire
POC Plumbing & Roofing Pty Ltd
Although Australians have never taken bushfires lightly the forecast is that bushfire intensity and frequency are only going to get worse.
The Australian Building Code has always acknowledged the serious financial and social cost of extreme bushfire events and it attempts to reduce their impact through legislation governing building design and materials.
The new BAL FZ (Bushfire Attack Level Flame Zone) is the most extreme rating that can be applied to building design and construction. Here in the Sutherland Shire, many of our Bush outskirt areas have the Flame Zone requirements when building.
We have been lucky enough to work with local Builder Renxtend (Dave Henson) who specializes in Flame Zone and has done many in Engadine, Jannai and Como to only name a few.
When we work on a flame zone build.. materials used and structure is imperitive to get right.. here is to be no opening whats so over in the build and thats why you know you are getting a quality build.
If you are lucky enough to be near bush and want to build – dont hesitate to call us and we can help.
