In this episode of Trade Legends, we sit down with Andrew, a seasoned HVAC professional from Australia, to explore his journey through four decades in the trade. He shares how he fell into the industry almost by accident, what kept him passionate over the years, and how the HVAC landscape has changed both in Australia and globally. Andrew offers invaluable advice for young people considering a trade career, emphasising the importance of curiosity, hands-on experience, and finding work that genuinely sparks your interest. His perspective highlights how vocational paths can lead not just to stable employment, but to a deeply fulfilling life and career.The episode also delves into Andrew's accidental leap into product innovation. What started as a simple idea to make installations cleaner and faster grew into a bracket system that's now gaining international attention. He explains the problem it solved, the process of testing and refining it within his own team, and how the demand from contractors and consultants led to its eventual commercialisation. With backing from Aspen Pumps and strong interest from the UK and US markets, Andrew reflects on the journey so far, the potential global impact of the product, and what the future may hold for both his business and the HVAC trade as a whole.

We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Jens and Lachie — better known on stage as Skank Sinatra and Iva Rosebud — to this week’s episode of The Heart Of It.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant sits down with Michael and Nicole Kowalczyk from the Tailored Property Group to discuss how determination, education, and strategy can lead to a successful portfolio. Starting from modest beginnings, Michael, a tradie, and Nicole, a nurse, began investing in property in their early 20s. By 2017, the couple struggled and found themselves financially stuck with negative gearing of $40,000 while Nicole was pregnant, adding pressure to their situation. After realising their buyer's agent wasn't meeting their needs, they took control, educated themselves, and transformed their portfolio within two years, emphasising that trust and referrals were the driving forces behind their business growth. This belief shaped the foundation of their company, Tailored Property Group, which focuses on personalised, strategy-driven advice. Unlike typical data-heavy agencies, they prioritise actionable strategies aligned with client budgets. Their approach has paid off, with their clients achieving an average capital growth of 28.6 per cent in 2024, underscoring the importance of grit, education, and a clear purpose in property investing. They advise investors to set clear goals, form a solid team, and embrace calculated risks, highlighting that property is not just a financial tool but also a means to achieve life goals.

Welcome to Episode 1 of Tradie Month! Now, you know we love a listical, and in true Tim & Dan fashion we are making a list of the 5 biggest killers of cashflow for tradies.  

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. - 選挙運動期間中、二大政党は揃って「住宅の供給を増やすため、国内のトレイディー（技術職）の数を増やす」と発言しました。

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. Builders welcome the move to fast-track tradie qualifications, but say there still won't be enough workers to build more than a million new homes that have been promised in the next five years without skilled labour from overseas. - अस्ट्रेलियामा यति बेला निर्वाचन अभियानको बेलामा दुवै ठुला पार्टीहरूले अस्ट्रेलियामा ‘ट्रेडी' वा प्राविधिक श्रमिकको सङ्ख्या बढाउने योजना घोषणा गरेका छन्। निर्माण व्यवसायसँग सम्बन्धित निकायहरूले ट्रेडीहरूको योग्यता छिटो प्रमाणित गर्ने कदमलाई स्वागत गरेका छन्। तर उनीहरूको भनाइ छ कि दक्ष विदेशी श्रमिक बिना पाँच वर्षभित्र वाचा गरिएको १० लाख भन्दा बढी नयाँ घर बनाउन पर्याप्त श्रमिक छैनन्।

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. - Pangako ng mga pangunahing partido na magtayo ng maraming bahay upang punan ang kakulangan, maitutupad nga ba ito sa gitna ng kakulangan sa mga manggagawa?

Most people recovering from an illness as serious as breast cancer would probably take it easy and do as little as possible - but not Nelson woman Wendy Ramsay. At 56, Wendy has just become a qualified tradie. A tiler to be exact - having just finished her apprenticeship under the Building and Construction training organisation BCITO. That's despite a difficult battle with cancer.
