Pricing guide

Cost is driven mainly by access and the type of head being serviced. Simple replacements on lawns are typically less labour‑intensive, while heads under paving, jobs requiring excavation, or branded/specialist rotors usually increase parts and labour allowances. Callout fees, technician time and after‑hours attendance can also affect the overall price.

  • Access and excavation required

    Heads buried under paving or heavily buried locations often need digging, which increases labour and scope.

  • Head type and parts required

    Premium rotors, gear‑driven heads or obsolete adapters generally need specialist parts and extra calibration time.

  • Number of heads to service

    Replacing or adjusting multiple heads raises the total labour and parts needed compared with a single head.

  • Reinstatement and surface repair

    Modest reinstatement may be allowed for some digs, while full concrete cutting or reinstatement is usually quoted separately.

  • Timing, callout and after‑hours

    Callout fees and attendance outside standard hours typically increase the quote compared with a daytime visit.
