Build 2 Trade app home screen

Australia's first digital networking platform for builders, tradies & suppliers.

Builders struggle to find reliable tradies when they need them. Tradies struggle to find steady, quality work. The calls, delays and mix-ups slow every project down. Build2Trade puts builders, tradies and suppliers in one place, so the work gets done.

One place for everyone on the job.

For Builders

Post your project once and get quotes from local tradies who actually do that trade. Compare, hire, schedule, track costs and download a full project report on every job.

For Tradies

See real projects near you that match your trade. Send a quote in minutes, win the work, get paid, and build your reputation with reviews.

For Suppliers

Get in front of builders and tradies the moment they need materials. Receive quote requests, send quotes, invoice and deliver, and sell from your own online shop.

Every job, in one report.

Download a project report as a PDF or an Excel file: hired tradies and their quotes, budget against spend, every expense and every trade's schedule. Ready for your client, your accountant or your next site meeting.

  • Hired tradies and their quotes

    Every trade with the tradie you hired and their quoted amount (excl. GST), plus the trades still waiting on a quote.

  • What the job is costing

    Budget or PO, the accepted quotes total, and the total project cost with expenses added in.

  • Every expense, itemised

    Date, item, category, supplier, quantity and unit price, paid or unpaid, with totals by trade.

  • Schedules and scope

    Start and end dates, budget and sub-trades for every trade, and which ones are hired or still pending.

Less paperwork. More building.

Upload your plans and Build2Trade's AI helps set up the project: trades, scopes and notes. It can draft a material list, compare the quotes you receive side by side, and fill in an expense from a photo of a receipt. You always check and approve before anything is saved.

  1. Examples shown. You check and approve everything: AI never publishes or saves on its own.
