How do I find a good tradie in Brisbane? Check the licence, get the scope in writing, compare quotes like for like, and keep the deposit within the rules.

1. Check the licence

Ask for the licence number and look it up on the QBCC register (and the Electrical Safety Office register for electricians). Make sure the class covers the work and the name matches the business you pay.

2. Get the scope in writing

Exactly what work, which materials, what is not included, and how variations are priced.

3. Compare quotes properly

A cheap quote that leaves things out is not cheaper. Compare the same scope, warranty and payment terms.

4. Keep the deposit within the rules

Check the current QBCC deposit limits before you pay anything up front.
