Builders & Trade
One point of contact for residential, commercial and automotive window film across your builds. Trade pricing, reliable timelines, and a clean site at handover.
Why builders work with us
Built for trade
We work with builders, developers, property managers, and real-estate agents across Melbourne. The relationship is simple: one person handles everything, timelines are honoured, and the site is left clean.
One contact
Residential, commercial and automotive film through one person. One measure, one quote, one install day. Dany measures and installs every job personally.
Reliable timelines
Install dates confirmed on the quote. Scheduled against your handover date, not ours.
Clean site
We leave the site ready for handover. Packaging removed, brackets clean, film cured. No follow-up visits needed for snagging on our trade.
Trade pricing
Competitive rates per square metre that stay consistent across your developments. Volume and repeat work keep pricing sharp, with no re-quoting every project.
What we supply
From single products to full fit-outs
Whether it is solar film across a ten-home stage or a full package of privacy, safety and frosted film for a single prestige build, everything comes through one quote and one install.
Full fit-out packages
Solar, privacy, frosted and safety film in a single package. Entry, mid and premium film tiers cover every price point from first-home buyer to high-spec architect build.
Individual product orders
Need just solar film across a ten-home stage? Or tint on the west elevation of a commercial build? We quote individual products as easily as full packages.
Stage-aligned delivery
Install sequenced to your build stages. Film goes on after glass is in and cleaned, but before joinery or partitions block access to it.
Genuine film, warranted
Authorised dealer for the films that matter
Stay Shady is an authorised dealer for XPEL, SolarGard by Saint-Gobain, UltraGard and Black Armor. That means genuine film sourced direct, installs done to manufacturer spec, and a manufacturer warranty that actually stands behind the work, not grey imports with nobody to call.
Process
How it works for builders
Five steps from first contact to final invoice. No surprises, no scope creep, no chasing.
Scope
Send us a floor plan, a window schedule, or just a site address. We visit the site for the first project together, and for repeat builds we can work off drawings alone.
Rate
We set a rate per square metre upfront. Pricing is transparent, competitive, and stays consistent across your developments. Entry, mid and premium film tiers available so your client can choose at selections.
Confirm
Confirmation to proceed and you're in the book. No deposit required for trade clients. Install dates confirmed upfront so you can plan your handover around them.
Deliver
Install is scheduled to your handover date. Glass needs to be in, clean and accessible, and the film needs a short curing window afterwards. Site is left clean.
Invoice
Invoice on completion. Trade terms (7, 14, or 30 day) available for established builder relationships. One invoice for the whole job, not two suppliers and two follow-ups.

FAQ
Builder questions
Yes. Trade pricing applies from the first project. Rates are set per square metre of glass and stay consistent across developments, with no re-quoting every time. Volume and repeat work keep pricing sharp.
We price per square metre of glass, not per home. Once the rate is set, it stays the same across your developments, so you can carry it into a tender without re-quoting. The pricing is transparent and competitive from the start.
We confirm the install date on the quote, scheduled against your handover date. Tell us when the glass will be in, clean and accessible, and we work back from there.
No deposits for trade clients. We invoice on completion with seven, fourteen, or thirty day terms depending on the relationship. One invoice for the whole job, not two suppliers and two follow-ups.
