Introduction
Tradie Forms helps Australian tradies fill guided forms and download finished PDFs
Tradie Forms turns trade paperwork into guided web forms. Pick a template, work through the sections on your phone or computer, check the PDF preview, then download the finished PDF.
It is built for Australian tradies who need the paperwork done on site, not later from a flat PDF.
What you can fill
Tradie Forms supports three kinds of paperwork:
| Type | What it is for | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Compliance | Official certificates, notices, and reports | NSW CCEW, QLD plumbing forms, NT gas notices |
| Daily operational | Job paperwork for your crew or office | Site notes, checklists, pre-start style forms |
| Customer | PDFs you hand to the client | Completion, sign-off, acceptance, job records |
Most public templates are regulator compliance forms. NSW site safety records and other operational templates are in the library too. You can also request a template for a public template suggestion or a private template for your business.
What every template does
Every template in Tradie Forms:
- Breaks the form into practical sections
- Shows progress and validation warnings
- Saves as you work
- Lets you preview the finished PDF before download
- Maps your answers onto the PDF layout for that template
Some templates also support saved details, address search, ABN lookup, in-form licence search, signatures, diagrams, photos, email actions, submission portal links, import from ServiceM8, Fergus, or Xero, or Fill with AI on Solo and Team. Solo and Team can also share a completed PDF or request a signature with an expiring link. The Tools area includes Licence check and everyday PDF tools on Solo and Team.
How the app is organised
After you sign in at tradieforms.com.au/app, the sidebar is split into three areas:
| Area | Pages |
|---|---|
| Forms | Overview, Drafts, Completed, Jobs |
| Library | Templates, Saved details, Presets, Tools, Connections |
| Account | Billing, Account, Team, Settings |
The New form button and search button are at the top of the sidebar.
