Words cannot describe the exceptional experience I had with Northern Local Trades Group when they installed a Colourbond roof on my home. The entire process was handled with seamless precision by Temo. The project management was amazing. The roofing and building specialists were available and informative, keeping me in the loop with the stages of the roof replacement. The end product is a beautiful trouble free roof that looks like it always belonged on the building. I couldn't be happier with the professionalism, timeliness, reliability of the team. The care, precision and communication taken throughout the process was top notch! This is a first class business to manage your building and renovation needs. Highest recommendation.
As the Secretary of a Strata Committee the process of obtaining quotes for maintenance of Strata dwellings is fraught with many difficulties. I have found Temo and his teams at the NR Trades Group personable, professional and reliable. At this stage of our process, and before any quotes have been accepted, Temo and his teams have exceeded my expectations.
These guys did a great job. They were excellent communicators and the work was completed really efficiently. Our new guttering looks and works beautifully. I highly recommend them.
The guys were great to deal with, kept me informed on progress, dealt with difficult weather conditions, and importantly, did a great professional job. We recommend this company to others.
Recently had the roof rescrewed, painted and restored with new flashing added. I’m really happy with the teams who completed the roof restoration and the painting including the electricians who removed and reinstalled the solar. The communication from NR trades was excellent and I was happy with the advice I was given and the end product. Thanks to all.
We are pleased to recommend this group - communication was prompt, options fully explained, the roof painting result met all of our expectations.

Safety is paramount with gas fitting. Our licensed gas fitters perform all work to strict Australian standards, including proper pipework, connections, ventilation checks and mandatory leak testing after installation for your complete peace of mind.

It could be a faulty thermostat, sediment build-up, or your system might be nearing the end of its life. In some older systems, briefly releasing the pressure relief valve can help flush out sediment, just be sure it’s safe to do so.
We’re big on client education and can show you easy maintenance tips to help keep things running smoothly. If a replacement is needed, we’ll recommend a reliable hot water system and take care of supply and installation too.
