The work

Strata painting in Australia.

Tell us the building, the levels and who signs off the work.

  • Interior repaint
  • Exterior repaint
  • Roof painting
  • Common property and stairwells
  • Line marking
  • Anti-graffiti coating

Who it is for

Built around the site.

Strata and owners corporations

Work the committee can read and approve.

Common property, exteriors, roofs and stairwells. Many owners share one building, so the scope must be clear. A written scope is easier for a committee to approve. Tell us what the work covers and who signs off.

Send the scope

Property and facility managers

One request. The whole scope.

Tell us the site, the scope, the access and the hours the building is open. Say if tenants stay in during the work. Say if the site has its own induction or safety rules.

Send the scope

Price

What published guides say.

These ranges come from published cost guides. They are not a quote. A real price needs someone to see the site and the scope.

Before you send

What to put in your request.

The more you tell us, the clearer the scope. You can leave out what you do not know.

  • The type of site, and the suburb.
  • The trade, and what the work covers. Rooms, floors, walls, roof or square metres.
  • Inside, outside or both.
  • Access. Height, lifts, scaffolding and how to get on the roof.
  • When the site is open, and when work can happen.
  • If tenants, staff or customers stay in during the work.
  • The date the work must be done by.
  • If it is a tender, the closing date.
  • Site rules, such as an induction or a SWMS for high risk work.
  • If the building is from before 2004, say if it has an asbestos register.
  • Any specification, colour schedule or drawings you have.

Questions

Good questions.

Can the work happen after hours or at weekends?

You can ask for it. Pick the hours in the form. Night and weekend work change the plan, so it helps to say early.

What is a SWMS, and when is one needed?

A SWMS is a safe work method statement. It is needed before high risk construction work starts. Work with a risk of a fall of more than 2 metres is one example. Ask to see it.

Who is responsible for safety when several businesses share a site?

Every state and territory has work health and safety laws, and Victoria has its own OHS laws. Businesses that share a duty must consult, co-operate and co-ordinate with each other.

Can one request cover several sites?

Yes. Pick multi-site in the form. List each site and its suburb in the scope.

Can I send a request for a tender?

Yes. Pick yes for tender and put the closing date in the scope. In preview, no business sees it yet.

Does an older building change the job?

It can. Asbestos has been banned in Australia since 31 December 2003, but older buildings may still contain it. If the site has an asbestos register, say so in the request.

Who sees my request?

Only House Proud Commercial. Your request goes into a private store. While we are in preview, no business gets it.
