Commercial trades · Sydney CBD to Western Sydney

Commercial trades labour hire in Sydney

Licensed, ticketed trades for fit-outs, base builds and building services. Electricians, HVAC and fire technicians, plumbers, sprinkler fitters and carpenters, tested before they reach your site.

The work

Commercial trades that arrive site-ready

Commercial sites run on programs and handovers. A fit-out floor in the CBD, a base build at Parramatta, a plant room at Macquarie Park, a services upgrade near the airport: each needs the right trade on the right day, with the right ticket in their pocket and no learning curve on your time.

We supply Tier 1 and Tier 2 builders, fit-out contractors, facilities managers and building services firms with commercial electricians, mechanical services, fire and hydraulic trades, carpenters and facilities maintenance electricians, on whatever pattern your program needs.

Every worker is safety-inducted by Smart Industrial before they step on your site, and arrives with their tickets and paperwork ready for your induction, so day one starts on the tools.

The Smart Standard

How we trade-test commercial trades

Commercial trades are tested on the work in your scope, by someone from that trade. An electrician isolates, tests for dead, fault-finds a circuit and reads a switchboard schedule. An HVAC technician talks through commissioning, controls and refrigerant handling. A carpenter sets out and installs to a drawing.

Questions

Commercial trades FAQs

Are your commercial electricians licensed in NSW?

Yes. Electricians hold a current NSW electrical licence, checked on the public register before they start. For data and comms work we match cablers with the registration your scope needs.

Do your HVAC technicians hold refrigerant handling licences?

Where the job involves refrigerant, yes. We confirm the refrigerant handling licence before the technician is put forward.

Can you supply a full crew for a fit-out?

Yes. Tell us the trades, numbers and program and we will say honestly what we can fill. Crews are inducted by us and mobilised to your start date.

Who employs the tradespeople and handles pay?

Smart Industrial does. We pay wages, superannuation and entitlements correctly. You direct the work and approve timesheets, then receive weekly invoices, auto-generated from your approved timesheets.

Can we hire a commercial tradesperson permanently?

Yes. Temp-to-perm terms are agreed up front, so you can trial a tradesperson on program before making an offer. For a custom search, see permanent recruitment.
