    Great service and great product from first site visit through to final installation. The installation team were fantastic, always on time or early. Very professional and friendly. They clearly take great pride in their workmanship and are always keen to help. All in all a great experience, thanks to the entire team! I unreservedly recommend Elemental Shades.

    Highly recommended! This is our second purchase from Elemental Shade Structures. The first shade sail was over 15 years old and still in very good condition, only taken down to make way for a tall carport to suit our caravan. Mark came up with a design to flow from the carport to the house and some side infills for the carport to provide extra shade. The completed sails are finished extremely well and staff provided excellent attention to detail. Very happy with workmanship and flexibility with changes to plans.

    We loved working with Mark and the team at Elemental. Very professional work, turned up on time every time and left the site tidier than when they started. They were also very accommodating adjusting the plans on the day to make sure the posts and shade would fit with out future plans.

    Professional to deal with, eye for detail, good value. We are so happy with the result. Probably one of, if not the best company to deal with during our renovations. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions

How much do builders typically charge?
Builder costs vary widely depending on the job type and complexity. Minor repairs are generally much less than extensions, small builds or structural alterations that need foundations, framing or specialist input. Most quotes include a call‑out fee plus labour and materials, and the page shows live pricing to help you compare options.
Do builders charge call-out fees?
Call‑out fees are common and typically cover travel and an initial inspection or assessment. This fee is usually separate from hourly labour and materials, and after‑hours or weekend attendance often attracts higher rates. Ask whether a call‑out or minimum charge applies when requesting quotes.
Do builders need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Building work generally needs to be carried out by a licensed builder in every state and territory, and NSW builders are regulated by NSW Fair Trading. Builders should be able to provide their state builder/contractor licence number and show appropriate insurances and ABN/GST registration. In Victoria, domestic building insurance is required above a state threshold for certain contracts.
Does Elemental Shades have a verified ABN?
Yes. Elemental Shades has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
