Receiving Quotes
You'll get email notifications when tradies respond. Two types of quotes:
Quick Quote
A short message with a rough price estimate. Good for simple jobs.
๐ Professional Quote
A full branded quote with itemised costs, T&Cs, warranty, and an "Accept" button. You can accept or decline online.
๐ Tip
Always get at least 2-3 quotes for any job over $500. Even Quick Quotes โ that way you can compare. The cheapest isn't always best, but the most expensive isn't always best either.
Choosing a Tradie
- Check their profile โ Photos of past work, reviews, ABN, license number
- Compare quotes โ Not just price. What's included? What's the warranty? When can they start?
- Ask questions โ A good tradie will answer clarifying questions happily
- Trust your gut โ If something feels off, move on
After You Accept
Once you accept a quote (Quick or Pro), the tradie is notified. You then arrange logistics directly โ payment terms, start date, access, materials etc. Members Warehouse is hands-off from this point.
