Progress claims by stage
Base, frame, lock-up, fixing and practical completion stages with the percentages from your contract, and each claim issued as a tax invoice.
Variations in writing
Each variation priced, described and signed before work starts, with the effect on the contract price and the time.
Prime cost and provisional sums
Allowances for appliances, tiles and fittings shown separately, with the adjustment calculated when the real cost is known.
Tax and paperwork
The Australia edition follows ATO rules and the residential building rules common across the states.
- GST
- 10% on residential building work once registered, shown on every tax invoice and progress claim.
- TPAR
- Building and construction businesses report payments to contractors each year in the Taxable Payments Annual Report, due 28 August.
- Licences and contracts
- A builder's licence and a written contract are needed above state thresholds, such as $5,000 in NSW and the QBCC limit in Queensland.
- Home warranty insurance
- Required before taking a deposit above state thresholds, for example over $20,000 in NSW. The quote reminds you when a job crosses it.

Questions
What are the usual progress payment stages?
Deposit, base, frame, lock-up, fixing and practical completion, with percentages set by your contract and, in some states, capped by law. The schedule uses your figures.
When do I need home warranty insurance?
Above your state's threshold, for example residential work over $20,000 in NSW. Check your state's scheme.
Do builders have to lodge a TPAR?
Yes, if you pay contractors for building and construction services.
How do I handle a variation?
Write it up, price it, get it signed before doing the work, then add it to the next claim. The register tracks every one.
