Questions to Ask Your Tradie
• Are you fully insured, including public liability and working‑at‑height cover?
• Have you cleaned conservatory roofs like mine and do you seal or treat failed units?
• What equipment will you use and will the job require scaffolding or a cherry picker?
• Will you remove and refit flyscreens and are there extra charges for that?
• How do you handle limescale or mould treatments and will that change the price?
• Do you provide a written quote and what are your payment and cancellation terms?
How to Avoid Surprises
• Provide clear parking near the property for the van and ladder access
• Move fragile items from window sills and clear a workspace inside the conservatory
• Tell the tradie about pets, gates or access restrictions
• Confirm availability of an outside tap and nearby power if needed
• Check whether scaffolding requires permission from a leaseholder, management company or local council
• Tell the tradie about any allergies or conservation glass to agree suitable cleaning products
