RENTAL COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENTS

Meet the ACT Standard Without the Headache

If you own or manage rental properties in the ACT, you know how much legislation there is to stay on top of. Ceiling insulation is one of the key requirements, and many owners and tenants aren't aware of what's in their roofs or whether it meets the minimum standard.

Our EEC-certified assessors inspect the roof space, measure the R-value and take photos, then label the property compliant, compliant with maintenance notes, exempt, or insulation upgrade required.

Property managers are busy, so we contact the tenant, organise a day and time for the inspection and keep you updated. You receive a detailed written report and compliance documentation, and if upgrades are required we send a free quote to bring the property into line.

  • Roof space inspected, R-value confirmed and photographed
  • A clear outcome: compliant, notes, exempt or upgrade required
  • We book directly with tenants and keep you updated
  • Inspection report, compliance certificate and invoices on file
I obtained three quotes before deciding who to go with, and they offered the best overall combination of value, service and professionalism. They were very competitively priced, but what really stood out was the service. [...] Rather than pushing the most expensive option, they recommended what made sense for the different roof arrangements.

How the Process Works

1. Free In-Home Assessment

Dom or one of the team visits your home, inspects the existing insulation, checks the roof space and subfloor, and asks about the rooms you're finding hardest to heat or cool.

2. Personalised Written Quote

You get a clear, itemised quote covering products, R-values, removal costs if needed, and any electrical work required. If you've already got a written quote from another qualified installer, bring it and we'll price-match. We'll also tell you what rebates you may be eligible for.

3. Book Your Install

Once you're happy with the quote, we lock in a date, usually within one to two weeks. Rental compliance jobs can often go in sooner.

4. Installation and Sign-Off

Electrical safety check first. Old insulation removed and roof space vacuumed if that's part of the job. New batts installed neatly around every fitting. Before-and-after photos, product documentation and safety sign-off handed to you on completion.

Before & After: Recent Canberra Homes

Every completed job comes with before-and-after photos of your roof space and full installation documentation. A few recent examples:
