FAQs
Do You Handle Projects with Non-Standard Materials (e.G., Recycled Bricks, Custom Stone)?
Yes! We specialize in unique materials like reclaimed bricks, bespoke stone veneers, and hybrid systems. Share your specs, and we’ll factor in sourcing, cutting waste, and labor for niche products.
Can You Provide Estimates for Masonry Repairs/restoration (not New Builds)?
Absolutely. We quantify repair scopes like repointing, crack sealing, and partial rebuilds, including heritage compliance (e.g., mortar matching for pre-1900s buildings).
What if My Plans Change Mid-Project? Do You Charge for Revisions?
Minor changes (e.g., wall length adjustments) are free. Major redesigns (e.g., switching from blocks to stone) incur a small fee we’ll quote upfront if revisions are needed.
How Do You Handle Masonry Estimates for Hybrid Structures (e.G., Steel-Framed with Brick Veneer)?
We break down each component separately (e.g., steel lintels, cavity walls, insulation). We make sure they align with Australian Standards (AS 3700, AS 4773.1).
Do You Include Waste Calculations for Irregular Site Conditions (e.G., Sloping Terrain, Tight Urban Sites)?
Yes. We factor in 5-15% extra waste based on site complexity, access challenges, and material fragility (e.g., natural stone vs. besser blocks).
Can You Estimate Masonry Costs for Bushfire-Prone (bal) or Flood Zones?
We’re experts in BAL 40+ and flood-resistant masonry (e.g., fire-rated blocks, elevated footings). Just share your site’s risk rating.
How Do You Ensure My Project Data Is Secure?
All files are encrypted, and we sign NDAs upon request. Your plans/takeoffs are never shared with third parties.
