    I'd like to take a minute to place a review whilst I've been going through some old messages and shape right excavations popped up. As a car carrier, about a year ago I was sent on a wild goose chase to retrieve an old Holden from a place in Belgrave. If you're local you know the terrain and can imagine how frustratingly hopeless it would be navigating a 17 metre long truck and trailer around there. I had to reverse down a dirt laneway about 500 metres to the customers place only to discover that he bogged the car getting out the driveway, then of course I bogged the truck trying to pull the car out. After some hours it was about 7 or 8pm. I called some towtrucks they said no and one said $1000. I called some Earthmovers knowing a sturdy bogie tipper would pull my truck out. Some said no, some said they were drunk. Steve called back after I left a pleading voice message and came straight over armed with chains and his son. Sure enough pulled the whole mess out like nothing at all. I felt like I was robbing him for the small amount he charged. So if he's working for you pay him accordingly and promptly and know you've got the best guy around. And a good chuckle if you ask if he remembers the fool with the bogged truck.

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.
