Hiring a builder in Glenelg: what to check

Licence check. Residential builders in Victoria generally need to be licensed or registered with the VIC building regulator for work above a set value. Requirements and thresholds differ between states, so check the builder holds the licence or registration required in VIC for your job, and what it covers.
  • 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.

Typical jobs

  • Home extensions and second storeys
  • Knock-down rebuilds and new homes
  • Renovations and structural changes
  • Granny flats and secondary dwellings
  • Duplexes
  • Decks, patios and outdoor rooms

Tips for Glenelg

  • Booking ahead helps, as regional tradies are often scheduled weeks in advance.
  • Check with Glenelg council early about whether your project needs approval before you get final quotes.
  • Glenelg covers 54 localities, so check that the business’s service area actually includes your suburb.
