Questions to Ask Your Tradie

  1. Is your call-out charge deducted from the final bill?

  2. Do you carry public-liability insurance covering accidental damage?

  3. Will you remove all packaging and recycle it?

  4. What guarantee do you give on your assembly work?

  5. Can you supply felt pads or anti-tip straps if I need them?

  6. Is there an extra fee for evening or weekend appointments?

  7. Do you require on-street parking or a lift for upper-floor delivery?

How to Avoid Surprises

  • Access: Measure doorways & stairs; clear a 1 m path to the room.

  • Parking: Reserve a bay or arrange visitor permit if street is restricted.

  • Work area: Lay a rug or sheet to protect floors; keep pets & kids out.

  • Lighting & power: Ensure good light and a nearby socket for low-torque driver.

  • Warranty: Keep purchase receipt and instruction booklet on hand.
