Good to know
Why does a Queenslander cost more than a brick house?
Preparation. Timber takes two to three times the hours of render to get to a sound surface, and that is where the price is.
Do you replace rotten boards?
Small sections, yes, as a quoted extra. Structural work goes to a carpenter first.
