A verified tradie contact you with a quote. You compare and pick who does the job — no pressure.
Electricians, plumbers, gasfitters, and air conditioning technicians must hold a current contractor licence and trade certificate for any work, even a $50 job. Hiring an unlicensed person for these trades is illegal and dangerous.
Carpenters, painters, tilers, bricklayers, fencers, concreters, roof plumbers, glaziers, waterproofers, and plasterers need a contractor licence for residential work over $5,000 in most states (thresholds vary by state).
Marketplace platforms verify identity but not qualifications. Anyone can list themselves as a "plumber" or "electrician" without holding the required licence. Find A Tradie exists to solve this — every tradie is checked before they can quote on your job.
Describe your job in plain words — we'll do the rest.
