Licensed Tradies in Queensland

Queensland Building and Construction Commission is the primary regulatory authority responsible for licensing trade professionals in Queensland. The body ensures that all licensed tradespersons meet the necessary qualifications, training requirements, and professional standards before being permitted to carry out regulated work.

Trades that typically require licensing in Queensland include building and construction, plumbing, electrical work, gas fitting, and various specialist categories. Each trade category has its own set of requirements, including formal qualifications, practical experience, and in many cases, ongoing professional development.

Consumer protections provided by the licensing system in Queensland include statutory warranties on building work, access to dispute resolution mechanisms, and the ability to verify a tradesperson's credentials before engaging their services. Queensland Building and Construction Commission also has the power to investigate complaints, impose penalties, and suspend or cancel licences where appropriate.
