This article is a timely reminder for QLD homeowners — the 1 January 2027 deadline for smoke alarm compliance in owner-occupied homes is now only 7 months away.

More than one million Queensland homes may still be non-compliant - and if the 2022 rental property rush is anything to go by, the same scramble for installers and supply is coming. Expect tradespeople to be booked out and pricing to firm as availability tightens.

Here's the thing — you can't lose by getting it done now.

If you're researching providers, here's what to look for:
🔹 Quality alarms — no annual battery replacement needed
🔹 Alarms that won't false alarm from steam or dust
🔹 A provider that services your area and installs quickly
🔹 Upfront, instant pricing — no surprises

Taskforce services all of Queensland. Our alarms are high quality, long-life and can be silenced with your TV remote 📺 — no more climbing on chairs when you burn the toast.

A national company estimates many Queensland homes are unprepared as the deadline to install compliant smoke alarms nears.

This Week's Taskforce Tipping Winner is Jessie Abson (jessiea) who received the perfect score of 9 from 9 with a margin of 0! 🏆

You'd think that's incredible enough but... Callum Tate (caltate) managed to get the same score and margin!!!!! 💪 Excellent tipping all round - unfortunately for Callum he just misses out - Jessie wins Round 9 due to her being in a higher position on the ladder!🤩

So a really close round this week - in fact overall there was 31 tipsters that received the bonus point this week, so great tipping everyone!

Keep up the good work - remember there is a $100 Bunnings Warehouse Australia voucher for our weekly winners and footy ticket random giveaways for regular tippers 🥳

🏍️ The Official Postie Bike Motorcade — Day 3

Another beautiful day on the road, as our incredible riders made their way through to Ballarat under sunny skies.

They're 60% through the journey — but here's the amazing part: the fundraising is already at 92% of the target. With just 2 days to go, we only need 8% more to make it happen.

Every donation brings us closer. Please spread the word with friends, family, and colleagues — and if you can, donate at: https://fundraise.bridgebuilders.com.au/events/my-kids-postie-bike-ride/red-team/
