Frequently asked questions

Hiring smart home installers

How much do smart home installers typically charge?
Costs vary widely depending on the complexity of the job and the number of devices involved, and the live pricing shown on this page reflects current regional rates. Many installers charge a call-out fee plus an hourly labour rate, with parts or replacement devices added separately. After-hours attendance and significant network or wiring work generally increase the overall cost.
Do smart home installers charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and are typically charged separately from hourly labour. Diagnostic visits and on-site troubleshooting profiles generally include a call-out component plus time on-site. After-hours or emergency work often attracts higher rates or multipliers.
What qualifications should I look for in a smart home installer?
Smart home installers are not covered by a single national licence, so look for recognised industry credentials and verifiable business registration. Useful signals include CEDIA membership or a CEDIA‑certified technician (EST or IST), SIAA or CITA affiliation, and trade memberships such as Master Electricians Australia or NECA. Also check for an active ABN (verifiable via the ABR) and appropriate public liability insurance.

Using SureQuote

Is the SureQuote estimate a quote, and why can a tradie's quote be different?
No. Your estimate is a guide price for a typical job that matches your answers. A tradie prices your actual job in their quote, once they've seen things like access, condition, materials and the full scope. Read the full answer
What happens after I submit my job, and how many tradies will contact me?
We email you your estimate and a link to your job. Up to 3 local tradies can take it and contact you to quote; only they get your name, phone and email, and you choose who to hire, if anyone. Read the full answer
Is it free to get quotes, and does the tradie's fee raise my price?
Yes, getting quotes is free and you don't have to hire anyone. Tradies pay us a capped fee to take your job, and we set it before they quote, so nothing is added to your quote. Read the full answer
Can I add photos to my job?
Yes. Add up to 10 photos in the chat after you give your contact details, or later from the job in Hire, and tradies see them before they take the job. Read the full answer
Do I have to hire one of the tradies?
No. Getting quotes is free, you're never obliged to hire anyone, and you pay only the tradie you choose to hire. Read the full answer
Does SureQuote check tradies' licences and insurance?
We collect each business's ABN, licence, insurance and warranty details and keep them as up to date as we can, so you can see them in one place on its profile. We don't guarantee them, so always check the licence yourself on the relevant licence register before you hire. Read the full answer
