Questions to Ask Your Tradie

 

• do you use bathroom-grade, mould-resistant paint and which brand do you recommend

• how many coats are included and do you include primer/sealer when needed

• how will you protect fixtures and flooring and do I need to move items beforehand

• do you inspect for mould or damp and what additional charges apply for treatment

• what guarantee do you provide on workmanship and paint, and do you supply a written quote

 

How to Avoid Surprises

 

• clear personal items and towels from the bathroom before the trade arrives

• ensure good ventilation or plan for a drying period between coats

• confirm parking or drop-off space for materials and ask about any access charges

• advise the tradie of any building rules, flat access or working-at-height constraints beforehand

• keep pets and children away from the work area while paint is applied and drying
