FAQs
The easiest way to save time and speed up the process is to send us an email with a complete info pack, ideally a set of stamped plans and your scope of works. [E.g., full contract take-off excluding the pool and landscaping.] Then we can issue a timeline proposal and a turnaround time to complete your project price.
Depending on the size of the project. For larger new builds or significant commercial measures, within 5 days. For smaller residential renovations/bathrooms/decks/small alterations, 3 working days.
As we know, no job in construction is the same, so costs always vary, but we try to work as close to these estimates as possible.
- Labour Only – Small Residential Projects – $400 – $700 + GST
- Labour Only – Big Commercial Measures / Volume Build Houses – $1100 – $1800 + GST
- Small Extensions / Alterations – $750 – $1200 + GST
- Big Alterations / Extensions – $1800 – $2400 + GST
- Small Dwellings / Units / Cabins -$600 – $1100 + GST
- Big New Builds Standard – $1800 – $2100 + GST
- Big New Builds Architectural – $2800 – $4000 + GST
We do offer Contract Reviews for builders starting at $500 + GST.
We don’t offer fixed price contracts; we will price your project and build a pricing sheet to approximately 80% of the project. We then do need your assistance to ensure our costs meet your business overheads and operating style. [E.g., how we have priced our labor matches your labor allowances within the company. Everyone operates and works differently.]
We get price proposals back within 2-4 working hours.

- We can present your document in a presentable PDF as a client version/can also include your logo along with the RapidQS logo to look professional.
