The detail

A good quote spells out how the job is priced and what's covered — labour, materials, prep and clean-up — so you're comparing like for like. Check what each renovator's quote covers before you choose.

Worth knowing: getting two or three quotes is the simplest way to land a fair price — and it costs you nothing.

  • Scope of works. Each stage a separate item, demolition to finishing.

  • Materials specified. Specific brands and models, not 'mid-range tiles'.

  • Exclusions. Waste, skip bins, scaffolding and making good, often left out.

  • Provisional sums. Hidden plumbing, subfloor or asbestos, given a dollar estimate.

  • Licence and insurance. ABN, licence and public liability on the quote.

  • Payment schedule. Deposit and payments tied to completed stages, not dates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hiring renovators

How much do renovators typically charge?
Renovation costs vary widely depending on project size, scope, finish level and whether structural or compliance work is needed. Jobs that require multiple licensed subcontractors or specialist trades are typically more expensive than simple cosmetic updates. This page shows live pricing to help you compare local quotes.
Do renovators charge call-out fees?
Many renovators apply a call-out or minimum attendance fee for diagnostic visits and small repairs, in addition to their labour charge. After-hours or emergency attendance is often billed at a higher rate. Check the live pricing and ask each provider what the call-out covers.
When do renovators need a licence?
Renovators working on larger or structural projects often need to be a registered builder or renovator, while minor cosmetic work may not require registration. Where regulated trades are involved, licensed electricians and plumbers are generally required to carry out that work. It’s sensible to ask for evidence of registration, an ABN, public liability insurance and any industry memberships relevant to the job.
