How to Choose the Best Builder in Melbourne
Use this checklist before hiring any builder in Melbourne, Victoria.
- 1
Verify they hold a current builder's licence for your state and check their licence history for any disciplinary action.
- 2
Confirm they carry builder's warranty insurance (mandatory in most states for residential work over $12,000–$20,000).
- 3
Review their contract carefully — ensure it includes a fixed price or cost-plus breakdown, schedule of works, and variation process.
- 4
Check their portfolio of completed projects similar in scope and style to yours before signing anything.
- 5
Never pay more than 10% deposit upfront — progress payments tied to completed stages are the industry standard.
Frequently Asked Questions — Builder in Melbourne
How much does a plumber cost per hour in Australia?
Most plumbers charge between $80 and $200 per hour, depending on your state, the complexity of the job, and whether it's emergency work. Emergency callouts typically attract a higher rate of $150–$300/hr plus a callout fee.
Do I need a licensed plumber or can I do it myself?
All plumbing work connected to water supply, drainage, or gas lines must be done by a licensed plumber in every Australian state and territory. DIY plumbing is illegal for these tasks and can void your home insurance.
How long does a blocked drain take to fix?
A standard blocked drain is usually cleared within 1–2 hours. If the blockage is severe or requires drain camera inspection and pipe relining, it may take 4–8 hours or longer.
What should I look for in a plumbing quote?
A good plumbing quote should itemize labour, materials, call-out fees, and GST separately. Ask if the quote is fixed-price or hourly. Always get 2–3 quotes for jobs over $500.
Can I claim plumbing repairs on my home insurance?
Sudden water damage from a burst pipe is usually covered. Gradual leaks and general maintenance are typically not covered. Check your Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for exact inclusions.
