Bushfire Attack Level or BAL is a method for rating the intensity of a locations potential exposure to bushfire. Identifying the Bushfire Attack Level around your property can help you site a new structure or better manage an existing one.

Can highly recommend this company and all the staff involved from the office with the initial phone call to the quote being carried out and then install happening it was far from stressful as previously experienced with another large company. Very easy to deal with and high quality products and workmanship couldn’t be happier. Very professional and no silly sales tactics used to win you over and better yet very affordable. Can’t wait for all the family and friends to see so I can recommend!

My husband and I are thrilled with the results and very impressed with your company and your professionalism. Your salesman was great. He answered all questions and was informative. Your installers completed the job and they have done a wonderful job. Your electrician was great also and accommodated a small change without hesitation. The job was done professionally and our home was left tidy. Care was taken by all which was much appreciated. Even your receptionist was very friendly and helpful. All these people you employ are a credit to your company.

We have been very pleased with the way your company works from the lady who we first spoke to, to the guy who talked to us about your roller shutters & ziptrak blinds – not pushy just a pleasure to have in our home. He told us all we needed to know without the frills. The installer was also very pleasant and worked well. We are happy to have dealt with your company and will pass on our favourable comments. Good luck.
