App-y to see this one

A new app makes it easier to check your builder's licence, calculate your home warranty insurance premium and so much more.

MASTER Builders Australia have welcomed the latest tool for Queensland building trades, a new contractor app designed to make choosing a builder easy.
The app, released by the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC), contains information and useful tools such as a licence checker, home warranty insurance premium calculator and access to a range of publications such as the National Construction Code 2015 and the QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide.
Contractors can also use it to access and submit forms online, track defects or locate the nearest QBCC service centre.
QBCC Commissioner, Steve Griffin said the app would be a handy and valuable device for all trade contractors and a valuable addition to the QBCC’s recent suite of digital innovations, such as the home owner app and online licence renewal process.
The QBCC contractor and home owner apps are available from the iTunes and Google Play stores.
