Is Hepburn Shire Council a declared termite area?
No. We found no termite risk area designation for Hepburn Shire Council.
What this means for your build
Don’t assume no protection is needed. Until 1 May 2026, Victoria’s Building Regulations only required termite protection in designated areas. That limit has been removed, so the National Construction Code’s termite provisions can apply wherever termites are a risk, and your building surveyor decides what’s needed for your site.
Detached Class 10 buildings, such as sheds and garages, are still exempt. If you’re unsure, allow for termite management when pricing and confirm with your surveyor.
