ServicesStrata common-area work
Common-area repairs sorted, and the paperwork your committee actually needs.
You send me the job, I work out what it takes, and I either do it myself or put the right licensed tradesperson on it and manage them. You get one quote in your reporting format, one point of contact, and one invoice for the building.
Free, fixed-price, no obligation.

Running a building means running five tradies at once.
A balustrade's worked loose on level three, the corridor paint's scuffed, a lobby door won't close, and the carpark light's out. Four jobs, four trades, four people to chase, and four invoices to reconcile before the committee will sign anything off.
Then the quote you do get back doesn't fit the reporting pack, so the approval stalls, so the job sits, so you're explaining at the next meeting why nothing's moved.
It doesn't have to run that way. One number gets the lot scoped, and the quote comes back in a shape the committee can approve without sending you back for more detail.
Here’s what you actually get
- Punch lists scoped and quoted item by item, so the committee sees exactly what each line is and what it costs
- Common-area finishes: paint and scuff repair, plasterboard, skirting and trim
- Balcony glass, balustrade and bracket repairs, and the worn door hardware, lift surrounds and signage that come with an ageing building
- Licensed work (waterproofing, electrical, roofing) done by a vetted specialist I manage, with their licence number on the quote
- Insurance claims run start to finish: the assessor liaison, the scope, the photos, the repair and the sign-off
- Quotes laid out in your committee's reporting format so they drop into the pack and approvals don't stall

Why owners and managers keep my number
It comes down to one thing. You make one call, and I handle the rest. Here’s how it runs.
- 1
You tell me the job
Phone, a text with a photo, or a work order straight from your strata software. I get back to you the same business day.
- 2
I quote it on site, fixed price
You see what it costs before anything starts. Where the job needs a licensed tradesperson, their licence number goes on your quote.

The right tradesperson does it
I manage the job on site, photograph it, and send you one itemised invoice in your format. You never deal with the tradie, and you never chase anyone.
Body corporates and property managers keep me on their books because it’s one number, one accountable contact, one itemised invoice. You’re not briefing a different crew every visit, and you’re not reconciling four bills for one job.
Questions I get asked about strata common-area work
- Do you do after-hours emergency callouts?
- No, I'm not the 2am crew. If there's an active leak or a failure overnight, call the specialist your strata insurer recommends to make it safe. I pick up the repair the next business day and see it through from there.
- How quickly do you turn things around?
- Send me the job and you'll hear back within a business day with a price. Most common-area repairs are booked in within the week once the committee approves. Anything held up by a licensed sub's schedule or a part on order, I'll tell you the real dates on the quote.
- What does it cost?
- The quote's free and fixed before any work starts. It comes down to the size of the punch list and which trades the items need, whether any of it is licensed work that adds a specialist to the quote, and the access, so height, lifts, or working around residents in an occupied building.
- Can you quote in our management software's format?
- Yes. Send me the template, or just tell me what your committee pack expects, and the quote comes back in that shape, with any sub's licence number on the page so it's ready to approve.
- Do you deal with our insurance assessor directly?
- Yes. Photos, scope, the repair, then the sign-off. The committee doesn't pick up a second phone or play go-between with the insurer.
Got a strata common-area work job in mind?
Send me a photo and a few words about the building, and you'll get a quote in your committee's format, not a runaround. Most of the Gold Coast, Kingscliff to Coomera.
