Why homeowners use VeriTrade
A simpler way to find help for your home
Tell VeriTrade what work you need and connect with relevant local tradespeople without sending the same information to several different places.

Connect locally
Relevant local tradespeople can respond through VeriTrade.
Compare profiles
Review previous work, feedback and available verification details.
Stay in control
You decide who you contact and who receives your details.
Your job is not simply sold to the highest bidder.
Information before deciding
More confidence before you choose
VeriTrade gives homeowners more information before deciding who to contact.
Every trade profile is built from what a business chooses to share and what VeriTrade has been able to verify. You can review the details that matter to you — recent work, feedback from other homeowners and any relevant checks — before making contact.

Example profile — actual information varies by trade.
- Business information and profile
- Photographs of previous work

Available information varies by trade account. Homeowners should still carry out checks appropriate to the type and value of work.
Trust & red flags
Concerns are recorded, not ignored
- 1
A homeowner raises a concern
Customers can report concerning behaviour or problems relating to their experience.
- 2
VeriTrade reviews the information
The concern can be reviewed, recorded and investigated where appropriate.
- 3
Repeat concerns can trigger a review
Three red flags within 180 days can move a trade account into review.
The system helps VeriTrade identify patterns of concerning behaviour before more homeowners may be affected.
It does not guarantee the outcome of work, prevent every unsuitable business from joining or replace the homeowner’s own checks.
