An Asset Protection Zone is a managed area between a building and unmanaged bushland, designed to reduce bushfire risk. NSW planning rules require them for many new builds.

How often does an APZ need maintenance?

Typically once a year at minimum, and often more before bushfire season if regrowth is fast.

What documentation is needed for an APZ?

For new builds, an APZ is assessed as part of the Bushfire Attack Level report. For existing homes, insurers or councils may request written confirmation that the zone has been maintained to standard.

How We Work

New Builds & Existing Homes

For new builds, we prepare the APZ so it passes bushfire assessment. For established homes, we bring the zone back into compliance and set up an ongoing maintenance plan so it stays that way year after year. We work on APZs along the bush edges of Nowra, Bomaderry, Berry, Jervis Bay and the Kangaroo Valley road.
