About Tradeworthy
A suburb map of local tradies
For Melbourne homeowners, and a free way for tradies to be found by the people in their own suburbs.
The idea
What it is
Tradeworthy is a map-based directory. Homeowners search by trade and suburb, see who's listed nearby, and call direct — no lead fees, no bidding war, no middleman.
We're starting in Melbourne's northern corridor, before we look at anywhere else.
For homeowners
Search a trade and a suburb, see the tradies who work there on the map, and call the one you want direct. Their number's on the listing — no forms to fill in and wait on, no callback from someone else first.
For tradies
Signing up is free for tradies right now. Add your name, trade, the suburb you're based in, a mobile number and an email address, and you're on the map. Add your ABN too and it unlocks the Verified badge. Pricing isn't decided yet — we'll be upfront if that changes.
Today there's no lead-selling and no bidding system — homeowners see your listing and contact you directly.
Trust
The Verified badge
A Verified badge means the tradie's ABN matched the ABN Lookup register.
If a tradie hasn't supplied an ABN, or it doesn't match, their listing stays up but shows as unverified. That's all Verified means right now — an ABN check, nothing more. We're not checking trade licences at this stage.
