Newcastle

Newcastle has Federation cottages, brick veneer homes, apartments and bush-interface suburbs — after a structure fire, soot, smoke odour and firefighting water all need careful handling.

Housing and fire aftermath

In Newcastle, Federation cottages, brick veneer homes, apartments and bush-interface suburbs respond differently to heat, soot and smoke. Our crews assess what can be cleaned versus replaced.

Climate and authorities

During an active incident, follow FRNSW, RFS and NSW SES guidance where relevant.

Wildfire / bushfire smoke can affect interiors even when flames did not enter the building.
