OUR PHILOSOPHY

 

Queensland Bushfire Planning was established in 2014 to help clients complete building and development projects in bushfire-prone areas with minimal hassle and impact on both structural design and the surrounding natural environment. Founder Bernard brings specialist expertise in bushfire prevention, planning, and design to every project. Read more about our team here.

At Queensland Bushfire Planning, we collaborate with our clients to achieve the best possible outcomes. Our experienced team uses Method 2 for BAL ratings (learn more about BAL Methods here), providing a more precise assessment and ensuring that the BAL score is not overestimated. This means you receive the lowest possible BAL score for your site—helping to streamline your project and reduce unnecessary costs.

Preserving Your Design

We help you move your project forward while maintaining your design vision, aesthetics, and budget. A miscalculated BAL rating can force costly, unnecessary fireproofing measures that compromise your design—we work to prevent that.

Cost Efficiency

By ensuring an accurate BAL rating, we help reduce overall project costs by eliminating unnecessary fire mitigation strategies. We only recommend essential measures specific to your site.

Minimizing Environmental Impact

"You don’t build in the bush to live in a park."

Through a thorough site evaluation and precise rating calculation, we aim to minimize environmental impact by reducing unnecessary land clearing and preserving local ecosystems whenever possible.
