We Don’t Charge By The Hour, Here’s Why

Hourly rates look cheap on paper, but they hide the real cost of the job and create an incentive to work slowly. We use upfront, fixed pricing instead.

Hourly Pricing

Hourly rates can mislead

A low hourly number doesn’t reflect the true cost of parts, insurance, vehicles, and support staff behind every job, so it often creeps up once the clock starts.

! Final cost can be unclear
Our Approach

Fixed price, no surprises

Whether the job takes one hour or three, the price you’re quoted is the price you pay. You approve the number before any work begins.

Price approved upfront
How A Quote Is Built

What’s Included In Your Price

Every quote covers the full cost of doing the job properly, not just the time on the tools.

01

Labour

A fully licensed, experienced technician on site to diagnose and complete the job.

02

Materials

Quality parts and fittings suited to the job, sourced and supplied by us.

03

Vehicles & equipment

Fully stocked, well maintained vehicles so the right tools and parts are on hand.

04

Licensing & insurance

Full QBCC licensing and insurance cover, protecting your home or business.

05

Office & support team

Booking, scheduling and follow up support behind every job.

06

Warranty

Written warranty on workmanship and the products we install.

One clear price covers the whole job. Labour, materials, operating costs and support are considered before you approve the quote.

Common Questions

Questions About Your Estimate

Is there a call out fee?

A call out fee applies to every visit. It covers getting a fully equipped, licensed technician to your door to assess the job and provide your fixed, upfront price before any work begins.

Why is your quote different from a competitor’s hourly estimate?

An hourly estimate usually only reflects labour; it rarely accounts for materials, vehicle and insurance costs, or the admin and support team behind the job. Our fixed price includes all of it upfront, so there’s no bill shock later.

Can the price change once work starts?

No. We won’t start any work until you’ve approved the scope and price. If something genuinely unexpected is discovered once we open things up, we’ll stop and talk you through it, and get your approval, before doing anything extra.
