Built on the tools,
not in a boardroom.
Trade Handy started with one working tradesperson on the Sunshine Coast who was tired of watching good trades get a raw deal and good clients get burnt. So he built the thing he wished existed — a place for real trades, honest connections, and jobs that actually get done properly.
The trade deserves better than lead auctions.
Every tradesperson knows the drill: pay to chase a job, get thrown in a ring with four others, and hope the client isn't just price-shopping. And every client knows the other side of it — five phones ringing after one enquiry, no idea who to trust, and a deposit handed over on a handshake and a hope.
Trade Handy was built to end both of those. No lead auctions. No getting hammered by callers. No deposit into a stranger's account. Just the right trade for the job, connected properly, with protection sitting quietly underneath so both sides can get on with the work.
It's two-sided on purpose. Clients find and hire vetted local trades. Trades connect to trades — subbing work out, referring a mate, teaming up on the big ones. And people looking for work can put their hand up and be found. One platform, real connections, everybody covered.
People first. Always.
Real trades
Vetted local people who do the job right the first time — the kind you'd have back. Quality over noise.
Honest connections
Client to tradesperson, tradesperson to tradesperson, worker to business. Straight, direct, no middle-man games.
Fair both ways
The tradesperson gets treated properly and paid on done. The client gets protected and never burnt. Both sides win or it's not worth building.
One platform, three ways to connect.
