Heating and cooling in South Sydney and St George

Knut is preparing heating and cooling coverage in South Sydney and St George. Requests and bookings open at launch.

Heating and cooling jobs you can request

Knut can connect you with tradies for air-conditioner installation and repair, heating repair, and HVAC maintenance. You can request help with one of these jobs, whether you already know what needs doing or need a tradie to assess the issue. If the job involves more than one system or property, include that in your description. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to arrange maintenance across many properties. Knut is newly available in South Sydney and St George, covering postcodes 2203, 2204, 2205, 2206, 2207, 2208, 2209, 2210, 2211, 2212, 2213 and 2216.

Give tradies a clear brief

Describe what you need done, where the work is, and when you want it carried out. For a repair, explain what the system is doing and when you noticed the problem. For an installation or maintenance request, say which system or area of the property is involved and what outcome you are looking for. Add photos if they help show the equipment or the issue. If you are arranging work across multiple properties, list the relevant locations and what is needed at each one. A clear description gives suitable tradies information to consider when responding with a quote.

Quotes, job costs and Knut’s booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. The tradies provide their own quoted price for the work, and Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. If you book through Knut, you pay the tradie’s quoted price for the work and one booking fee to Knut at booking. The fee is 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote.

Choose and check your tradie

Heating and cooling work involves licensed work, so Knut only matches the job to tradies whose licence has been verified. Consider whether each quote addresses the work you described and compare what the tradies have included before choosing. Knut recommends a quote on how well it fits the job, rather than simply on price. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. For immediate danger to life or property, such as a gas leak, fire, electrical hazard or flooding, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.

Knut's booking fee

Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
