I am looking for on approx 5x 4m and would like to know how much they cost. Re: Bali Hut 2Dec 14, 2008 9:37 pm I was looking for them as well. I searched on ebay and found this.

last one i quoted was traditional shingle with timber top hat 3m x 3m engineered etc for $6500 + gst installed Da Vinci Outdoor Living Architectural landscaping http://www.davincioutdoor.com Re: Bali Hut 5Dec 15, 2008 3:47 pm Would one of these requre building approval or be subject to building regs? My first guess would be it would simply because of its size and it has a roof Me and the old man were looking at building one ourselfs, dads pretty handy with that sort of stuff, built several buildings on our farm, but up there theres no such thing as regs
There is one in Laurima (spelling?) estate that you can see over the back fence as you drive in and I've become obsesed with it! Re: Bali Hut 6Dec 15, 2008 9:53 pm engineering / plans etc and permits will in most cases be required Da Vinci Outdoor Living Architectural landscaping http://www.davincioutdoor.com Re: Bali Hut 7Dec 16, 2008 8:20 am Approval not required unless it is attached to the house or is more than 12 sq/m, same rules as a garden shed. Re: Bali Hut 8Dec 16, 2008 2:34 pm almost all traditional bali huts ( with deck) from base of post to top of the top hat exceed 3 mtrs in height so yes you do need engineering and a permit
if it is below 3 mtrs then you dont Da Vinci Outdoor Living Architectural landscaping http://www.davincioutdoor.com Re: Bali Hut 9Dec 16, 2008 2:38 pm davinci almost all traditional bali huts ( with deck) from base of post to top of the top hat exceed 3 mtrs in height so yes you do need engineering and a permit if it is below 3 mtrs then you dont 2.99m it is then Re: Bali Hut 11Jan 01, 2009 9:17 pm This site has kits available in quite a few different styles:
http://www.tropicalthatch.com/eng/showpage.php3?id=691 We'd love a Balinese hut, but with the size of our yard, we only have room for a Balinese bus shelter.... Re: Bali Hut 12Jan 01, 2009 9:29 pm Space is unimportant according to my brother in law and sister ... just how you use it!
This is their back yard: It is about 5 metres deep and 15 metres wide.

I only wish I had 5m to play with....there's 2m at the back of the house (19m width) and along the side the width varies from 1.8 to 2.8m, apart from the al fresco area. We'll make good use of it, but we're still considering exactly what to do with it. The Balinese bus shelter is on the cards, for sure.... Re: Bali Hut 14Jan 02, 2009 11:56 am Yep, gotta agree with kek, that backyard looks great!
Ours is slightly deeper at 9m but only 11m wide and is currently full of dirt and builders rubbish so we are looking for inspiration; those photos have certainly given me some encouragement although I'm afraid to ask how much?
