Applying for a trade or builders licence through CBS.

For those aiming to obtain a minor trade or builder's license in South Australia, understanding the process might feel overwhelming. But don't worry, we're here to help break it down for you in simple terms.


Understanding if You're Eligible:

Knowing if you qualify for a builder's license in South Australia is crucial. The Consumer and Business Services (CBS) in South Australia oversees this process and has specific rules you need to meet. Making sure you've got everything right from the start is key to getting your trade or builder's license.


Knowing if You Really Need It:

Not every job in building requires a license in South Australia. Some tasks, like basic repairs or maintenance, might not need it. However, if you want to be a builder or work on larger projects, you'll need to obtain your builder's license through the CBS.


How We Can Give You a Hand:

At Licensing Advice, we specialise in providing clarity, application preparation and guidance throughout the South Australian trade and builder license application process. We understand the complexities involved and work closely with individuals to ensure they meet all necessary criteria before submitting any application. Our goal is to streamline the process, saving you time, money, and unnecessary frustration.


Whether you're unsure about your eligibility, need assistance navigating the requirements, or seek advice on the right path forward, Licensing Advice is here to support you. We'll help you understand the nuances of obtaining a trade or builder's license in SA, ensuring you're fully prepared for your application.
