— Connection type. Plug-in swaps are cheapest; hardwired electrical and gas connections need licenced trades and cost more.

— New points or circuits. Running a new power circuit, water line or gas point can double the price of the job.

— Number of appliances. Installing several appliances in one visit is cheaper per item than separate call-outs.

— Removal and disposal. Taking away the old appliance usually adds $30–$80 per item.

— Access and cabinetry. Tight integrated cabinetry or trimming benchtops to fit adds labour time.

— Gas appliances must be installed by a licenced gasfitter who issues a compliance certificate — keep it for insurance.

— Check the new appliance's dimensions and connection positions against your cavity before booking the install.

— Bundle several installs into one visit to save on call-out fees.
