Many insurers require proof that bushfire mitigation conditions are actively maintained not just approved once.

If vegetation has regrown, access tracks aren't maintained, or firebreaks don't meet standards, you could be exposed.

We audit your site against approval conditions and insurer expectations so you can demonstrate compliance with confidence.

Commercial and industrial sites across Queensland are required to maintain bushfire mitigation conditions but when was the last time yours was independently reviewed?

At 𝘽𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝘼𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 –𝙌𝙪𝙚𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙙, we provide professional compliance audits to ensure your site meets approval conditions, council requirements and insurer expectations.

Don’t wait for a claim or inspection to find gaps.
Be proactive. Be protected.

Across Queensland, many developments operate under bushfire mitigation conditions tied to approvals, leases, or insurance policies.

Over time, vegetation regrows, asset protection zones narrow, access tracks deteriorate, and documentation becomes outdated.

Non-compliance can expose site owners to increased risk, insurance complications, and potential liability.

BUSHFIRE ASSESSMENTS – QUEENSLAND offers:

✔ Independent bushfire mitigation compliance audits
✔ Review of approval and insurance conditions
✔ On-site verification of mitigation measures
✔ Clear reporting for owners, operators, and insurers
✔ Practical recommendations to address gaps

If you’re responsible for a commercial, industrial, or rural site in Queensland, now is the time to ensure your obligations are properly maintained.

Proactive compliance today reduces exposure tomorrow.

As we see what happens to wildlife firsthand I know that my fellow firefighters 🧑‍🚒 would feel the same as I do in helping to protect the wildlife.

Each year we give $500,000 in grants based on your votes

Please be aware that it is very dry, even though we had a drop of rain on Sunday night. Also lightning can start a fire 🔥 anywhere, as we saw on Sunday night when we went to assist Eukey. Thankfully It started pouring with rain, but there were extremely strong winds which were fanning the fire 🔥.
Please remember you require a PERMIT for any fire 🔥 bigger than 2 metres x 2 metres.
