Hiring a builder in Central Coast: what to check

  • Check the tradie holds the licence or registration required in your state for your type of job.
  • Ask for a written quote that lists labour, materials and GST.
  • Get a written contract for larger jobs — many states require one for residential building work over a set value.
  • Ask whether they hold public liability insurance.
  • Check the ABN on the ABN Lookup website.
  • Ask how long the job will take and who will be on site.

Tips for Central Coast

  • Distances between towns are bigger in outer regional areas — ask whether a builder regularly works in your locality and what travel costs apply.
  • Booking ahead helps, as regional tradies are often scheduled weeks in advance.
  • Check with Central Coast council early about whether your project needs approval before you get final quotes.
