* Our working approach *

​

We work in collaboration with homeowners, owner builders and business owners where they pay for our time of work (including labouring, managing, consulting) and materials only.

(Owners are encouraged to organise materials or do some work themselves if they have the time)

We set up open estimated budgets, work on stages if necessary and send the bill at the end of each week with the total of working hours per person and the total amount for materials.

At “Sustainable Tradies” we all work on a casual basis and hold an ABN. We work on average 6 hrs per day and one day off per week is desirable.
