We aim to be as responsive as possible, and our Tradies are dedicated to ensuring they can help you when you need them. As we grow and add more quality Tradies, we’re aiming for an average wait time of approximately 10 minutes, and we hope to achieve this on a more consistent basis.

This depends on how complex your topic is and how much information you need about it. Most of our calls take equal to or less than 10 minutes. Our second most used category is equal to or less than 20 minutes.

Yes! Our Tradies are a mix of those who have recently retired or younger ones working after hours. They are selected based on their qualifications, skills and problem solving skills, and verified to ensure you’re provided with the best advice possible. Our top rated Tradies are forwarded to you first.

We always strive to provide great value and we hope that we can help you solve your own scenario or educate you about your topic. However, sometimes you might need to engage a local Tradie to come to your site and provide a physical solution. For example if your job requires a licensed professional to safely complete it for you, your Video Tradie will advise you of this.

The cost is dependent on how long the video call takes.
