A deck or pergola has to suit where it is built. Here is the local context we factor in for projects in Mundoo Island.
Mundoo Island lies about 15 km east of Goolwa at the southern end of Lake Alexandrina, ringed by the Lower Murray channel, Boundary Creek, the Coorong Channel, the Mundoo Channel and Holmes Creek, with Hindmarsh Island to the west. The land is the privately owned Mundoo Island Station, grazed since 1843. It is reached from Goolwa across the Hindmarsh Island Bridge and then over the Mundoo Barrage.
Mundoo Island is a remote, low-lying island among the channels of the Murray Mouth and the Coorong estuary, largely a setting of pastoral land and open water. It is an exposed, salt heavy environment surrounded by water, with constant wind. Any deck or pergola here needs durable or composite decking, marine grade fixings and robust wind bracing, and low-lying ground calls for careful footing design.
Building on a remote estuary island such as Mundoo Island, a deck, verandah or pergola is still assessed under South Australia's Planning and Design Code. Many of these need development approval, though smaller low set ones can be exempt. Applications for the island are lodged through the state PlanSA system, with Alexandrina Council as the local planning authority. If you are planning work here, we are happy to help work out what it needs.
