An Interesting read re Victoria's laws and extra costs associated in our State. Did shed some light on my query, I thank all those who commented.

JUST AN EXTRA NOTE-

I was given two quotes one of $10,900 & another of $12,600 for a completed job, supply and install. The quotes didn't give me a breakdown of labour & materials just an overview price per section eg, Roofing, Guttering etc

So I did a take off and went to a couple of suppliers and found Tradelink to be the cheapest, my overall costs for materials was around $4,500 cut to order and delivered.

I know it will take a few guys to put it up, but I reckon thats a pretty good margin on the labour. Not to mention a possible trade discount in the materials the roofing joints may have in place.
