Recent project: house raise, West End
For an owner-builder in West End, we prepped all the drainage before the house was raised, then came back to rough in the water lines for the new downstairs, run the copper and install the hot water system.
Drains prepped
All the drainage set out and laid before the house went up.
Rough-in
Water lines run through the new downstairs wall frames.
Ready for linings
Lines clipped and set out before the walls were sheeted.
Finished
Copper pipework and the new hot water system we installed, on the finished wall.
Questions from builders
Do you price from plans?
Yes. Send us the drawings and we price from a full take-off, with clear inclusions and exclusions. Anything not yet designed, such as gas, goes in as a clearly labelled provisional sum rather than a guess.
How do you handle variations?
Any change to scope is priced at our labour rate plus materials, and we get your written approval before it goes ahead. There are no surprise variations at the end of the job.
Who looks after the gas meter?
The gas meter and network connection belong to the gas distributor. Our gas scope starts at the meter outlet, and we can help you coordinate the distributor application.
Is your work warranted?
Yes. Our workmanship carries an 18-month warranty, and we supply Form 4s for notifiable work and gas compliance certificates at handover.
