Carports Mundaring

Frequently asked questions

• We are on a bush block in the hills. Does the carport have to be near the house?
  No, and it often should not be. Out through Darlington, Glen Forrest and Parkerville the houses sit well back and the vehicles park somewhere else entirely, so a freestanding structure goes where you actually park. The thing to check early is crew and concrete access, and we check it at the visit.
• How long does a Mundaring carport build take?
  Time from contract signing to handover depends on council processing time for your specific build, plus material lead times. The on-site build itself is typically 2 to 4 days. We'll give you a realistic end-to-end timeline at quote stage based on the actual specifics of your project.
• What's the most common carport you build in Mundaring?
  Freestanding Carports are common across Mundaring because of the housing footprint and the typical block size. Other carport types are available depending on your block and home style.
• Do I need a Building Permit or something more?
  Carports in WA need a Building Permit lodged under the Building Act 2011. Shire of Mundaring, like every WA local council, processes these applications. The application can be lodged as Certified (BA1, with private certifier sign-off) or Uncertified (BA2). We handle the full submission either way and confirm the pathway that suits your build at quote stage.
• Do you cover all of Mundaring, and what if I'm just outside it?
  We cover Mundaring 6073 in full plus the surrounding suburbs, with no travel surcharge and no minimum job size. Just outside it the pricing and process are identical. Further out again we build the travel into the quote so there is no surprise on the invoice.
