    Daniel was very honest in his quote, giving us all the options to keep the price down, and his recommendations demonstrated his professional approach. He arrived on time and completed our thatch repair to a higher standard than it was originally laid (by another company). He was also very careful not to damage the garden surrounding our Bali pavilion. It was a pleasure to deal with Daniel.

    Daniel was very prompt and professional. Very friendly to chat to, and then just got on and did a very neat job. Tidying up when he was finished, immaculate. I would highly recommend Cool Thatch

    Daniel from Cool Thatch was very professional to deal with and his workmanship could not be faulted. I'd highly recommend anyone to consider Cool Thatch if you're looking for a thatched gazebo or hut.

    So a bit of history for you.African thatch and Cool Thatch are two company's that have joined together. We had a Roof frame and the Thatch assembled then broken down in Perth for trucking to Karratha. We are a Caravan park,Tavern,Chalets and General store right on the beach at Point Samson. The thatched roof covers our outdoor Campers kitchen with open sides. The structure has been thru about 5 cyclones in the past 10 years and has sustained NO DAMAGE what so ever and considering we are a D rated cyclone area (250KM/HR winds ) its quite remarkable. Touch wood it will withstand another 10 years of cyclones. Lindsay Brady Managing Director

    Daniel was wonderful from start to finish. We both love the hut and gazebo he has built us. Thankyou Daniel.

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.
