James has completed nationally recognised RIIWHS204E Work Safely at Heights training, covering:
- Hazard identification and risk assessment on roofs and elevated areas
- Correct use of ladders, harnesses and fall protection
- Safe access, work positioning and emergency procedures
This means our work is planned and carried out in accordance with recognised Australian safety standards.

This level of cover is suitable for residential, strata and commercial sites across Hobart and its surrounds.
Workers Compensation Insurance
For jobs that require additional workers, we maintain current workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with Tasmanian legislation.
This protects our workers if they are injured while working on your property and helps ensure all work is carried out under proper employment conditions.

Keeping Everything Current
All of our checks, training and insurance are renewed before they expire. We also review our cover levels as the business grows to make sure they remain appropriate for the type of work we do.
If you are a strata manager, real estate agency or commercial client and need copies of our current certificates for your records, please contact us and we will provide them promptly.
