With over 35 years of building experience, you are in good hands with us

My Name Is Hans Rauch, myself and my wife Sharna run East Coast Bali Huts and

Gazebos. You are in good hands when dealing with us, why?

Well let me explain further…

I have an extensive background in the building and construction trade. I’ve been

involved in and managed mostly large projects with extensive landscaping,

predominantly in the tropical part of North Queensland, for over 35 years.

The Bali Hut being the key factor in many gardens. Be it in a Resort Hotel, Boutique

accommodation, a home by the beach/suburbs or on acreage, the Bali Hut comes into

its own and is a stellar addition to any garden.

Therefore it was a natural progression for me, to become a Bali Hut and Gazebo

manufacturer.

Why are we here to help you with your new Bali hut?

East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos are here because as we saw, there are so many

operators all hiding behind the facts of what you really get for your money with your new

Bali hut.

“Where is your Bali Hut taking you?”

Why East Coast Bali Huts 3

Our range of Bali huts and Gazebos gives you value for money and an instant

entertaining area that adds value to your home.

Our Bali Huts are of a high quality. We use the best stain, the best timber, the best

thatch, the best delivering method and our prices are all inclusive. There are many

ways you can benefit with a Bali Hut or Gazebo but don’t just take our word for it, read

what our customers have to say.

Free, instant pricing and a quality comparison guide

We can, of course, offer you additional items such as handrails and timber decking,

once again of the highest quality kiln-dried timber and in the case of the timber decking

we use hardwood decking boards. We’ll happily disclose the differences in between the

products on the market to help ensure you make the best quality decision you possibly

can.

Quality 65mm Thatch Spacing on our Bali Huts

With other manufacturers you can find up to 100mm or 120mm thatch spacing which

decreases the lifespan of the roof as they are supplying only half the thatch

required.

This is a tell-tale sign of a low quality Bali Hut. We give you everything done correctly

first time therefore saving you money in the long run with buying a quality product.

No Hidden Extras

Unlike many of our competitors we include everything other than handrails or decking.

Yes we include and do not charge extra for a crown, no extra for stained finish, and no

extra for delivery. It pays to ask the question. Check what is included before you order

from one of our competitors.

We are the Bali Hut Specialists

Yes, we are specialized in Bali Huts and Gazebos. But we offer our customers a total

package if preferred. Such as Bamboo fencing or privacy screens. Of course we can

complete your overall look with a water feature or a stunning statue. We use exclusively

our own colour. We can offer you also Bamboo maintenance products, cleaner and

protector. It is also ideal for high humidity climates.

Did you know…?

Most times with other manufacturer quotes you will be priced on the roof area and not

the frame size. For example if you order a 3 x 3 from us your roof size will be 4 x 4, as

opposed to some cheap Bali Huts who quote a roof size of 3 x 3. We always describe

the frame size not the overhang size, this means that you get an extra 1.2m of

overhang all around!! Always ask this question when you are comparing quotes.

Imagine the added value this will be for your most valuable asset, your home!

Have you been looking for a high-quality Bali hut or Gazebo, complete with easy-to-

follow instructions or the option of a turnkey installation? Perhaps you are overwhelmed

Bali hut and Gazebo questions and help you identify what makes a great-quality Bali

Thinking of doing away with your “old Bali Hut”? Because it’s looking rather tired? Getting

holes in your roof? Getting dust breaking off and spoiling your lovely dining / sitting area?

Think again! Yes can rescue this “tired” looking roof and revitalize your Bali Hut, just

when it was new. We can re-thatch your roof and restore your Bali Hut to its former glory!

You’ll be so happy you did!

Of course we only supply the very best thatching to you, original Alang Alang from Bali,

handmade with cream stitching. This thatching has a better density than the rods with the

black stitching. The thatching with black stitching is less dense on the rod and was

originally made for home use in Bali. (they still use it). Although it is exported and used all

around Australia it won’t last as long as the white stitched thatching and it won’t give you

a good insulation.

Alternatively you can purchase the thatching from us and do it yourself. We can work out

what you need and show you how it’s done. If you’re handy with the hammer, it’s a great

weekend project.

Re-Thatching 10

Our Commercial Work 13

East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos won a competitive tender to re-thatch our 3.5 x3.1m Gazebo at The Islander Noosa Resort in June 2016.

Sharna& Hans Rauch were helpful and responded to enquiries promptly. All aspects of the installation were very professional and there was minimal disruption to the guests at the resort.

I am very satisfied with the outcome.

Testimonials 18

East Coast Bali Huts recently completed an amazingly different hut on my very,

very difficult slopping block. What made me decide to use ECBH is that Hans

(the owner) didn't just ask me what I wanted.....he made some amazing

suggestions. Hans vision for what would work on my block was superb and the

effort his team went to carry 240kg posts up a massive slop was just

extraordinary. If I didn't use ECBH I'm afraid I would have ended up with just

your average everyday hut rather than something out of this world! A million

thanks to Hans, Sharna and the team!

Brad Townsend – Bali Hut on top of hill with sandstones

My new Bali hut is completed and it's wonderful. Hans and Sharna were so helpful and

completed every detail without a problem. I had my timber frame painted white and it

looks fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble. I love the look and it all went smoothly.

Highly recommend East Coast for any project. Great people and it's worth every cent.

Thank you so much guys. It's a life changing transformation and my family will spend

our long summer hanging out here. Can't wait for our Bali hut party. Thanks again. Plus

they are the only company I could find that actually visit and quote. Most don't.

After replacing the thatched roofing of our pool housing shelter 3 times over the past 18

years, we finally made the decision to upgrade the roof with Cambridge shingles. We're

so pleased with the result and carrying a 30 year warranty we won't be replacing this

roofing system any time soon. The Cambridge shingle system came as a

recommendation from Hans and Sharna of East Coast Bali Huts. From initial telephone

discussions, to getting a quote and deciding on a suitable colour that blended into

surrounding landscaping, to the installation completion - the professionalism not only of

Hans and Sharna but also the installers was second to none. The installers were also

respectful of our existing pool landscaping being careful not to damage plants.

Telephone and email communication from Sharna was progressive and informative

from start to finish. And always good to have a visit from the 'boss' on the day of

installation, just to make sure we were all on the same page. For these reasons, I have

no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the team from East Coast Bali Huts.

Very very happy with the result. Leanne Bennett - Samford Valley

Hi Sharna,

Bali Hut is now complete, thank you so

much for your help along the way. From

the first contact to completion, your service

has been fantastic. Both you and Hans

have talked me through the whole process

of selection and construction. The quality

of the Bali Hut is first class and my wife

and myself are very pleased with the end

result. We’ve had a number of friends

comment on the hut and they’ve said how

good it looks. We will have no hesitation of

recommending you guys to our friends or

anybody who might be interested in a Bali

Hut. Once again thanks for all your help

and it has been a pleasure dealing with

you! Regards, Callum. Baulkham Hills

Hi Hans and

Sharna,

A big “thank you” to

East Coast Bali Huts,

from the moment I

made the inquiry, to

accepting the quote, I

knew they’d keep their

word and build on time

and to a high standard.

We’ve had many

projects not go to plan

around our home lately,

and the only thing that went smoothly was our beautiful Bali Hut. Your

care, honesty and workmanship is something to be proud of! Your

installation team is really great too!!

Cheers, Tracey Manly, Qld

We absolutely love our hut,

thank you East Coast Bali Huts for

doing a wonderful job. Your service

was second to none, we placed the

order and had it erected within a

week ready for the party. We are

installing blinds for a little privacy

for the spa. I'll attach a pic here

when we finish. JUST LOVE,

LOVE, LOVE IT!!

Sharon Lambourne, Wynnum West

A big shout out and many thanks to the fantastic team, Sharna and Hans,

at East Coast Bali Huts. We now have a great tropical paradise to relax in

after work and on weekends. We haven’t been out of since it went up! Cat

and dog love it too. Cool and waterproof, even though the recent

downpours. Nothing like being surrounded by the sound of cascading

waterfalls. Sharna and Hans have been great and full of tips and ideas, as

we were the DIY construction team of “Dad and Dave” Alan actually. Easy

to follow instructions and precisely manufactured frame meant we had it up

with half the thatch on, over a 3 day weekend. Finished the thatching flying

solo the following weekend. We highly recommend these guys for service,

quality and above all honesty.

HOW LONG DOES THE THATCH ROOFING LAST?

Good question. As climates in each state vary, there are a few variables that will contribute to the lifetime of the thatching roof. Generally speaking the thatching roof will last between 8-12 years, Termite-Proof” and “Borers” guarantee.

ARE THE BALI HUTS WATERPROOF AND DO THEY LOWER THE

TEMPREATURE?

Yes, when installed correctly Bali Huts are 100% waterproof and in the hot summers, they also lower the temperature underneath, by around 10degrees.

CAN YOU ASSIST WITH INSTALLATION?

We have a unique way to help you with this. All our Bali Hut DIY kits come with an easy to read assembly and installation manual, with lots of detailed photographs and you can phone us anytime for our support in the event you do need advice. If you are handy and take your time, you will be able to complete your Bali hut successfully. If you still have a problem, you can contact us even after hours and we’d be happy to help you along. Still find it difficult? That’s O.K, we have a great installation team that can do the job to your satisfaction!

WHAT KIND OF TIMBERS DO YOU USE IN YOUR BALI HUTS?

We use high-grade Australian and New Zealand termite resistant treated pine. What we’ve found is the most authentic-looking and durable posts are round and guaranteed by our supplier for 25 years against termite, borers and decay. We guarantee that our timber is only sourced from fully sustainable and managed forests. Our supplier Chain of Custody Certification also guarantees that all timber structural products, including termite resistant engineered beams, hardwood flooring and decking are only purchased from a legal timber supply and do not come from controversial sources.

FAQs 28

WHAT IS THE DELIVERY TIME FROM START TO FINISH AT MY

PLACE?

Well, some times of the year are busier than others however on average allow 3 – 4 weeks for production and delivery. We can always make an exception and fast track the odd installation for a special occasion.

DO I NEED COUNCIL PERMISSION?

All of our structures are generic engineered so that you are protected and quite often a permit is required by your local Council. Best practise is to check with your local council first.

IS THERE A STANDARD HEIGHT MY BALI HUT MUST BE?

Our Poles are standard 3.00m, with increments of 600mm, 3.60m, 4.2 etc long, therefore it gives us the allowance for variations in height. Based on our experience we recommend a minimum 2100 mm clearance from the underside of the beam.

I’VE SEEN DIFFERENT COLOURED STRING ON BALI HUTS, WHAT

DOES THAT MEAN?

White (light brown, cream) coloured string is used to stitch the thatching to the bamboo rod. This type of thatch is of high quality, therefore your roof will last longer. Also the amount of thatch used on the bamboo rod is thicker. Black string is also used to stitch the thatch to the bamboo stick. This is mainly for local use in Bali, the thatch is thinner, as less thatch is used on the stick.

WHAT IS THE ROOF PITCH OF YOUR BALI HUTS AND GAZEBOS?

The roof pitch of our Bali Buts and Gazebos is a big factor in determining the longevity of the roof. A steep roof pitch will last longer due to better drainage. For this reason we use a roof pitch of 35 degrees.

ARE THE TERRACOTTA SECTIONS INCLUDED WITH YOUR BALI

HUTS?

Yes, we do supply the Terra Cotta sections with all of our huts. Crowns for square huts, finials and ridge capping for rectangular huts.

MY BALI HUT HAS JUST BEEN INSTALLED AND I THINK THE

THATCHING LOOKS ROUGH

This is quite normal for the thatching, it tends to look a bit wooly and ruffled. However once the roof has been hosed down and raked you will see a noticeable difference, with more wet weather the thatch will settle.

DO YOU HAVE CARVED POSTS?

Yes we can supply authentic carved Balinese posts, by special customer order.

CAN THE THATCH CATCH ON FIRE?

Care needs to be taken with open fire B.B.Q’s. Although no customers of ours have reported any incidents as yet! We can offer you fire retardant thatching at a marginal extra cost.
