Thread: Suspended ceiling

I calculate that job to be around $800.00 if the site access is good.

(I am a builder, but sorry, I have three jobs on the go at the moment, so am not available).

If I were you, I would go down to the local plasterboard outlet.... (proper trade outlet, not handyman) and ask for names of a couple of their regular plasterboard contractors.
The job is very small, so you may have to wait a little, until one of the guys has a slow week, but you should get the job done at a reasonable price.

Good luck.

Spot on fossil but can be done even better that. For 3 hours work I would make $600 for that price. Materials are about $120 plus delivery.

You only need help for 5 minutes to put up the sheet. or do it yourself with a join to stop. Still do it in 3 hrs.

Frame the ceiling out using 51mm steel stud and track.

Don't pay that guy $1700 Fly me up to Sydney for the day on a $100 airfair and we will get it done for $1000 LOL.

Seriously though this is a very simple job that can be completed ready to paint in a few hours.

thanks for the feedback guys ... yeah thats what i suspected.
When he gave me the quote i was like 'yep, thats fine' then i asked how many days he would need to do it so i could know when i could paint it 'it will be done in a day no probs' .... i was like, thats a lot of coin for one day that you sound pretty cruisey about ... hence y i asked ...
you able to point me in the right direction for who the trade platerboard centre would be fossil? seeing as your the blueys thought u might know of the sydney folk ... the one i found in sydney that didnt look too fancy shmancy was grayking ... i have given them a call and asked them to get someone to call me so if im headed in the right direction thats cool ... thanks for getting back to me guys, appreciate it.
