Frequently asked questions
Local answersWhat happens after I send a request?
We use the details to route the request by service, suburb and provider coverage, then pass it to a suitable local provider when there is a good fit.
Do you service outside of Launceston?
Yes. Some providers cover the Tamar Valley, Meander Valley, Northern Midlands, and nearby northern towns.
What should I include in my request?
Add photos only if they help explain the job; avoid sharing private documents or unsafe images.
How do I know if material might be asbestos?
You often cannot confirm by sight. If the material is older or uncertain, ask about testing before disturbance.
What should a demolition quote include?
It should state the scope, exclusions, safety controls, waste handling, disposal and whether services or permits are included.
Does asbestos removal need a licence?
Many asbestos jobs require licensed removal, controls and disposal documentation. Confirm the licence class, disposal method and paperwork before work starts.
Is demolition waste the same as rubbish removal?
No. Demolition waste can include concrete, treated timber, asbestos, contaminated material and heavy loads that need different handling from general rubbish removal.
