Quick answers
How fast will I get a quote?
Within 1 to 2 business days. A couple of photos with your request makes it faster and more accurate.
Do you charge for quotes?
No. Quotes are free and no-obligation. If the price doesn't suit, no hard feelings.
Do I need to organise anything myself?
Just tell us what needs doing. We scope the job, line up any trades it needs and manage the lot through to done.
Can you handle small jobs?
Small jobs are half of what we do. One sticking door is a perfectly good reason to get in touch.
Do you work with property managers and strata?
All the time. Reactive repairs, end-of-lease make-readies and common area upkeep, with photos and paperwork for your records.
How much does a call-out cost?
Standard call-outs start from a $140 minimum during business hours. After-hours emergency and make-safe call-outs start from $280. In our extended area a travel charge may apply on top, and we confirm the amount in your quote before anything is booked. Anything beyond the call-out is quoted on the full scope of the job — see the rates above.
Are you insured?
Yes. EMSCO Property Maintenance is fully insured, so every job comes with complete peace of mind.
Ready to get your property sorted?
