Before anyone starts work
- Check the licence: in South Australia, builders, plumbers, gasfitters and electricians are licensed by Consumer and Business Services (CBS), on one register. Checking a licence in every state explains where to look.
- Ask for total initial fees: call-out, travel, diagnostic and after-hours amounts can differ from the repair cost.
- Agree changes first: settle extra work and its price before it goes ahead, where practical.
