I'm a carpenter and in my experience, home owners who think a renovation can simply be priced from the start and expect that price not to change are dillusional. Old homes especially in qld are always never plumb, square or straight. This becomes more evident when stripping away existing walls etc. If I simply worked on an initial set price without variations I would work for minimum wage. Anyone who puts on a tool belt for a living knows its an extremely hard job to do and simply put there's a reason why there's a skill shortage. I've had clients tell me to install new windows out of plumb and level to suit walls because they didn't want to pay for me to fix the walls. Tbh ppl just want everything for free

Just build a new frame around the window, let them pay extra to cover the holes
You’ve mentioned that you hold come property as personal and others in a trust. A video explaining your reasoning for this would be I interesting.
