Building a Patio in Baldivis
Estates Across Baldivis
Settlers Hills was the first estate in Baldivis, and others include Tuart Ridge, The Rivergums and Spires. At Woodlands Baldivis, the estate asks to see house plans before building starts. If your home is in an estate, check whether it wants to see your patio plans too.
Rural Blocks Too
East of Baldivis Road the land is mostly rural, with sand and clay soils. On a rural block, a freestanding patio can go wherever you want the shade.
Steel and Colour for Baldivis Homes
Baldivis is well away from the sea, so standard Colorbond, a steel roofing that comes already painted, suits homes here.
We confirm the right steel for your home on your free on-site quote.
No Coastal Grade Needed
The maker's coastal steel is for homes within 200 m of the sea. Baldivis homes sit well outside that.
Pick Your Colour
With salt air out of the picture, the choice comes down to colour. At Woodlands Baldivis, the estate's design guidelines cover building materials and colours.
Council Approval for a Patio in Baldivis
In Baldivis, the council side goes through the City of Rockingham.
Usually not needed
Planning Approval
The City says that on residential land, a patio added to a single house doesn't need planning approval, which the City calls development approval.
Needed
Building Permit
The City still needs a building permit for patios, sheds and other structures.
Sometimes
R-Codes Approval
The R-Codes are the Residential Design Codes. They set things like how close you can build to your boundary, how high you can build and how much of your block has to stay open. Depending on your block, the City may need an R-Codes approval as well as the permit.

Patio Questions From Baldivis
Frequently asked
Does My Baldivis Estate Have Rules for Patios?
It might, and we don't know every estate's rules. If you don't have a copy of your estate's design guidelines, ask the estate for one before the site visit.
Can a Covenant on My Title Affect My Patio?
It can. A restrictive covenant is a rule about building on your land that's recorded on your title, and some are set to end on a given date. If your title has one, bring a copy to the site visit and we'll plan the patio around it.
Can You Build a Patio on a New Baldivis Home?
Yes, and we can build a carport at the same time if you want one.
Can You Build on a Sloping Baldivis Block?
Often, yes. A patio can be designed to suit sloping or uneven ground, and we check the levels when we measure up.
Which Patio Suits a New Baldivis Backyard?
It depends on the space and how you use it. A skillion patio has a single sloping roof and suits a narrow side area. A gable patio has a pitched roof like a house and gives you height and light. A freestanding patio stands on its own posts out in the yard.
