Mundaring Patio & Building Permit

Mundaring falls within the Shire of Mundaring, which requires a building permit for most patio, pergola, carport, shade sail, and shed projects before work can begin. As a general guide, a permit is generally needed if the structure is attached to the home, exceeds 10m² in area or 2.4m in height, or involves posts, roofing, or other load-bearing elements — check the Shire of Mundaring’s own guidance below to confirm your specific project.

Bushfire Construction Standards in Mundaring

The Shire of Mundaring states this directly on its own patio, carport and pergola page: structures in a bushfire-prone area, sited within 6 metres of a home built during or after 2014, must be constructed to Australian Standard AS3959-2018 for bushfire-prone construction — and a Bushfire Attack Level report is listed on the Shire’s own application checklist where required. Large parts of the Shire are gazetted bushfire-prone under Local Planning Scheme No. 4, so this is one of the first things worth checking for a Mundaring build.
