Find a trusted tradie in Adelaide

One good Adelaide tradie, not five sales calls

Looking for a reliable tradie in Adelaide shouldn’t mean filling in a form and then fielding calls from half a dozen strangers all week. We do it differently. Tell us what you need and we match you with one vetted local tradie, with their licence, insurance, ABN and reviews already checked. That’s it.

We’re free for homeowners, and we’re not a directory. We don’t hand your number around to whoever pays the most. Just one good tradie for the job in front of you.

Built for Adelaide homes

Adelaide has some of the loveliest housing stock in the country, and a lot of it comes with its own quirks. Bluestone and sandstone cottages, returned verandahs, grand old villas with high ceilings and tessellated tile paths. They’re beautiful, but they ask for a tradie who knows how older homes are put together, whether that’s lime mortar, rising damp, lath and plaster, or wiring that’s well past its prime.

Then there’s the weather. Our summers get properly hot, so air conditioning is less a luxury and more a survival tool. We see plenty of jobs for split system installs, ducted reverse cycle, ceiling fans, and shade and verandah work to keep the heat off the western walls. When the cool change finally rolls through, it’s often gutters, downpipes and the odd leak that need sorting.

Common jobs we match folks with around town include:

• Plumbers for blocked drains, hot water systems, leaking taps and bathroom renos
• Electricians for switchboard upgrades, safety switches, downlights and EV chargers
• Air conditioning installers for split systems and ducted reverse cycle
• Roofers and gutter specialists, handy after a hot dry summer
• Builders, carpenters and renderers for extensions, decks and character restoration
• Painters, tilers and landscapers to finish the place off

Licensed, and we check it

In South Australia, building and trade work is licensed through Consumer and Business Services, usually just called CBS. The exact licence a tradie needs depends on the type of work and its value, and thresholds can change, so it’s worth a quick look at your state’s body if you’re unsure. The good news is we do the checking for you. Before we match you, we confirm your tradie holds the right CBS licence, carries insurance and has a valid ABN. If you’d like to read up first, our guide to tradie licences breaks it down in plain English.

From the beaches to the Hills

We cover the whole Adelaide metro, from Semaphore and Port Adelaide in the north-west, down the coast through Henley Beach, Glenelg and Marion, across the leafy eastern suburbs like Norwood, Burnside and Unley, and out to Modbury and Golden Grove. Up in the Adelaide Hills around Stirling, where homes are spread out and a bushfire plan matters, we’ll find someone who knows the terrain too. A bit further afield in regional SA? Ask us anyway and we’ll do our best.

However big or small the job, having one trusted local who turns up and does it properly makes all the difference. When you’re ready, tell us what you need and we’ll match you with a good Adelaide tradie. No fuss, no sales calls.
