TaskerAsker is an Australia-first two-sided marketplace built to connect homeowners, renters and small businesses with verified local trade professionals. We were founded with a single mission: make it easier — and safer — to find quality tradies in Australia, without the long phone tag, suspicious quotes, or guesswork about whether the person showing up actually has an ABN. From a leaking tap in Bondi to a kitchen renovation in Geelong, the platform exists to take the friction out of every step between deciding to hire and getting the job done.
TaskerAsker started with a frustration most Australians know well: it should not take three days, six unanswered phone calls and a guessing game about ABNs to get someone qualified to quote on a small job. We built a marketplace where customers describe a job once, verified local tradies opt in to quote, and prices, profiles, reviews and timing all sit in one place so the hiring decision can be made in minutes rather than weeks. Today TaskerAsker serves customers in every Australian state and territory across a broad range of trade and service categories.
We connect people who need a job done with vetted local providers across a wide range of trade categories. Every provider on the platform is required to verify their identity, supply a current Australian Business Number (ABN), and where relevant prove their licence details before they can quote on customer jobs. Customers post jobs for free and receive up to three personalised quotes from providers in their area, with the option to compare side-by-side and message any of them in-platform before committing.
Trust is the foundation of every TaskerAsker hire. We verify ABNs against the Australian Business Register, require state licence details for regulated trades, hold all platform-paid jobs in milestone-protected escrow, and back every hire with a published customer guarantee and an independent complaints and resolution process that escalates to state Fair Trading bodies when needed. Every tradie also agrees to our tradie code of conduct before activating their account.
Beyond the marketplace itself, TaskerAsker publishes free practical content for Australian homeowners: cost guides that benchmark fair prices for common jobs, price calculators for instant estimates, pre-hire checklists that walk you through what to verify before you sign, a tradie Q&A library answering everyday questions, and a blog covering seasonal maintenance, hiring advice and home-renovation tips written specifically for Australian conditions.

Yes. Posting a job, receiving up to three quotes, messaging tradies and comparing prices on TaskerAsker is always free for homeowners and renters. The only money you spend is what you agree to pay the tradie you hire.
Verified tradies pay a small per-lead credit only when they decide to quote on a job they want. There are no monthly subscriptions, no commissions on the project price, and no hidden fees — the lead-credit price is shown upfront.
Every tradie has their Australian Business Number (ABN) checked against the public Australian Business Register before they can quote. Regulated trades — plumbers, electricians, gas fitters, builders, asbestos removalists — must add their state licence number, and we re-verify ABNs on a rolling basis.
TaskerAsker covers a wide range of home and small-commercial service categories — from everyday trades such as plumbers, electricians, cleaners, painters, handyman, landscapers and removalists, through to specialists like asbestos removers, antenna installers, arborists and pool technicians.
Press, partnerships and media enquiries go through the TaskerAsker contact form with the subject line Press or Partnership. We aim to respond within one business day.
