Why the total matters more than the rate

Every job carries fixed parts: notice, setup, wrapping, disposal and clearance where required. On a small area those spread across fewer square metres, so the rate looks higher. On a big roof they spread further. That's why we always give you one all-inclusive total, not a rate.

What's in our fixed price

  • Measure-up visit and a written quote
  • WorkSafe ACT written notice, at least 5 days before removal (WorkSafe ACT)
  • Site setup, dust control and safe removal
  • Double wrapping, transport and disposal at Mugga Lane
  • Clean-up, plus independent clearance where required

Ways to keep the cost down

Bundle jobs: doing the fence, eaves and laundry on one visit means one setup, one notice and one disposal run. Clear the area before we arrive. And deal with damaged material sooner rather than later, because whole sheets are quicker to remove than broken ones.

Be wary of anyone promising to start straight away. WorkSafe ACT warns people to be wary of removalists offering to start less than 5 days after a quote is accepted (WorkSafe ACT safety alert).

Common questions

You don't need to. We measure up on site as part of the quote.

We don't have a supplied Canberra guide price for wall sheeting on its own, so wall jobs are quoted on site.

Treat it as a guide. Your fixed price covers everything, including disposal and clearance where required.

Yes. After we measure up you get one all-inclusive written price. It doesn't change unless you ask us to add something.

A licensed removalist must give WorkSafe ACT written notice at least 5 days before licensed removal starts, and WorkSafe ACT warns people to be wary of anyone offering to start sooner after a quote is accepted.

We have flexible payment options if cash flow's tight. Ask when we measure up and we'll set it out with your quote.
