Common roofing jobs
Roofing work can range from a specific repair to a larger replacement. You can request help with roof repairs, including investigating a leak, or ask about gutter repairs. If the roof needs more extensive work, you can describe a roof replacement for tradies to quote. Emergency roofing is also a listed service. Explain what you have noticed and what outcome you need; the tradie can assess the scope and say what work they propose. If you are unsure whether the issue is with the roof or gutters, say so in your request rather than guessing at the cause.
How to brief a roofing job
Give a clear description of the problem, where the property is, and when you want the work done. For a leak, note where you have seen water coming in and when you first noticed it; for a repair or replacement, describe the work you think is needed. Photos can help explain visible damage, but only provide them if useful and safe to take. Mention any relevant access details or constraints so tradies can consider the job when preparing quotes. You submit the description once, and Knut sends it to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service.
Costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. If you choose to book, you pay Knut one booking fee at booking: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie’s quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Compare the quotes you receive and check what each includes before deciding. The booking fee is separate from the tradie’s quote, so consider both when choosing how to proceed.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Knut compares the quotes received and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Read each quote to understand the proposed work and quoted price, and ask the tradie about anything that is unclear before booking. Some jobs in this trade need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut for maintenance across many properties.
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.
