Pricing guide
Costs vary mainly with the type and complexity of the task, and whether the job is straightforward repair or requires disassembly, diagnosis or preparatory work. Jobs that uncover licenced trade requirements, need permits, or involve specialised parts or follow-up typically increase the scope and overall cost. Callout fees and hourly labour are usually applied separately from materials and parts.
Task complexity and type
Simple fixture adjustments or patching are generally quicker than tasks requiring teardown, alignment or detailed troubleshooting.
Furniture, cabinetry and flyscreen work
Repairs to cabinets, drawers or flyscreens often need disassembly, alignment and extra hardware, which usually takes more labour and parts.
Diagnosis and discovery during visit
Jobs that require investigation or reveal hidden issues can extend the visit and may lead to further work being needed.
Requirement for licensed trades
If the repair crosses into regulated work (electrical, gas, structural) a licensed tradesperson will likely be needed, affecting scope and coordination.
Materials, replacement parts and special orders
Common consumables are typically provided on the day, while rare or special-order items usually add time and additional sourcing.
