At O’Shea Trades, we believe you should understand what needs to be done, what your options are and what it will cost before work begins.
Whether you need plumbing, electrical, roofing, renovations or another O’Shea trade, we’ll assess the job, explain what we find and provide clear pricing before you decide how to proceed.
You stay informed. You choose the option. You approve the work.
We first understand what is actually happening and what work is required.
We explain what we’ve found in clear, simple language.
Where appropriate, we’ll give you different ways forward and explain the difference between them.
You’ll know what you’re approving before the agreed work begins.
Once approved, our team gets to work and completes the agreed scope properly.
Two jobs that sound the same can be very different once we inspect them.
A roof leak, power fault, blocked drain or hot water problem can have several possible causes.
That’s why we would rather understand the job properly than give you a number based on assumptions.
Clear advice first. Clear pricing second.
The cost of trade work can vary depending on:
For applicable service and repair work, we price the work required rather than simply leaving you watching an hourly clock.
Before agreed work begins, we’ll explain:
Then you decide.
Roofing, renovations, decking, pergolas and other larger projects require a more detailed quoting process.
We may need to inspect, measure and scope the work before preparing an accurate quotation.
The principle remains the same:
Understand the job. Agree on the scope. Agree on the price. Then proceed.
A professional trade service involves much more than the time a tradesperson spends at your home.
Your price supports:
It’s the infrastructure behind the service that helps us deliver a reliable result.
Half of the job price goes directly toward labour and materials.
The remaining amount supports the people, vehicles, tools, insurance, training, systems and infrastructure required to provide a professional service.
Profit allows us to keep investing in our people, equipment and customer experience so we can continue supporting Melbourne homeowners for years to come.
For eligible work, O’Shea offers access to a range of finance and payment options through multiple finance providers.
Finance may be available for eligible plumbing, electrical, roofing, renovation and other home improvement works.
Our team can explain the available options when discussing your quote.
Finance is subject to eligibility, approval and the terms and conditions of the relevant finance provider.
Make sure you’re comparing the same thing.
Ask:
A good quote should help you understand what you’re buying — not simply give you a number.
Attendance and quotation arrangements vary depending on the trade and type of appointment.
Our team will explain any applicable fee before your booking is confirmed.
No surprises.
For many jobs, we need to assess the problem before we can accurately determine the work required.
We would rather give you useful pricing based on the actual job than guess.
Yes. For applicable service work, we’ll explain the relevant pricing before agreed work begins.
Larger projects are quoted based on an agreed scope.
Applicable service and repair work is generally priced according to the work required rather than leaving you on an open-ended hourly clock.
Some specialised or project work may be priced differently.
Access, condition, materials, diagnosis, compliance and the actual scope of work can all affect the price.
Where there are genuinely different solutions available, we’ll explain them so you can decide what works best for you.
We’ll explain any additional work outside the approved scope and discuss the options before proceeding.
No. We’ll explain the options and pricing so you can make an informed decision.
This varies depending on the service and appointment type.
Our team will explain any applicable fee before confirming your booking.
Yes. Finance and payment options are available through a number of providers for eligible works.
Because the same apparent problem can require very different work from one home to another.
We prefer to assess the actual job and provide pricing based on what is genuinely required.
We understand the job.
We explain what we’ve found.
We give you options.
We provide clear pricing.
You approve the work.
Then we get it done properly.
All Trades, One Promise — Since 1978.
