From the start it took months to come out and quote, was given 3 different prices for the same job, each time getting dearer. After I mentioned this they came back with a price I agreed on. While on-site the rep recommended a size that was way too big, I asked if it was too big, his response was no. So I moved forward with things and got a form 15 for engineering through them, only to find out it wasn’t even close to being a legal size structure. I reduced the size(which was similar to what I was originally asking for), then they wanted more money from me to do up a new form15 and also increased the price of the sail and install by a few thousand dollars. Thanks Brisbane shade sail for wasting my time and money.
*Edit: Response to Brisbane shade sails response.
2021 was the first time I asked for a quote (so not sure where this 2015 date came from), at which time I asked for a quote and asked if the info I provided was enough for a quote or did someone need to come and have a look.
Brisbane shade sail proceeded to give me a site unseen quote.
I was happy with the price and was looking at preceding further, then Brisbane shade sail wanted to come and do an on-site quote was arranged after multiple date changes for quoting from brisbane shade sails, Glen finally made it to site.
Just to clear up, the certifier said size should be ok, trying to work with me to get the recommended size by Brisbane shade sail through council.
Not once was the sewer mains going along the front of our property an issue, the issue and many phone calls was triggered due to the sail being too big. Also the certifier never drew/amended any plans.
Brisbane shade sails can you please provide me with what the maximum size is that council will allow for a structure built at the front of a property in Petrie, Moreton bay shire?????
I thought it a bit unfair that I proceeded with engineering after advice from Brisbane shade that the size will be ok and no mention of extra fees if it gets knocked back from council.
In regards to deposit it was arranged with Glen that I pay deposit in person once council had given the go ahead, no mention of price rises, until I asked the question after my trust for Brisbane shade sail was declining.
FYI with price rises I managed to find a price that was close to your amended on site visit quote, after only calling one other person.
