Before you hire a tradie
When they join, tradies confirm they hold the licences and insurance their work requires, but we don't independently check those documents at present. We provide the introduction: the business quotes and carries out the work directly, and we don't supervise the work or guarantee the outcome.
- Ask for the relevant NSW licence number.
- Check the licence with NSW Fair Trading.
- Request current insurance details.
- Get the scope, price and timing in writing.
What affects the price
Every job is quoted on its own. These are the usual things that affect the price:
- Size and scope. How much work there is and how many parts of the home it involves.
- Access. How easy the work is to reach, for example roof height, crawl spaces, or pipes and cables inside walls or under slabs.
- Materials. The products, fittings and finishes you choose.
- Age of the house. Older homes can need extra work to bring things up to current standards.
- Urgency. Same-day, after-hours and weekend work usually costs more than a booked visit.
- Compliance paperwork. Any certificates, approvals or inspections the job needs.
Ask about any call-out fee before someone visits, and compare written quotes for the same scope of work.

It depends on the work: some jobs need no approval, while others need a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) or a Development Application (DA). Renovating an older Mount Druitt home can also involve asbestos in fibro sheeting and lead in old paint, so ask how the tradie will test for and manage them before work starts. Ask your tradie or a certifier what applies, and check blacktown.nsw.gov.au for guidance.

It depends more on the job than on being in Mount Druitt. Indoor jobs such as a bathroom or kitchen renovation can be planned for any time of year, while exterior painting and roofing depend on the weather. Allow time to get and compare written quotes, especially for larger jobs.

Hiring for a home in Mount Druitt
Many homes in Mount Druitt are older brick, brick-veneer and fibro houses, largely from the second half of the 20th century. Homes like these may need updates such as replacing older pipework, upgrading original switchboards, exterior repainting and bathroom renovations. A tradie who regularly works on similar homes is more likely to spot the usual issues and quote with fewer surprises.
Every site in Mount Druitt is different. Cracked walls, uneven driveways or sticking doors in an older home can have several causes, so ask for the cause to be identified before repairs are quoted. Older homes were often built without insulation or air conditioning, so ask about both when planning an upgrade. Fibro sheeting in older homes may contain asbestos and older paint may contain lead, so ask how they will be tested for and managed before renovation work starts. Mention anything unusual about your site in the job description.
