Grants, rebates, apprentice incentives, subsidised tickets and training — most trade businesses are leaving five figures on the table because nobody has time to dig through forty government websites. We do the digging on your business, by name, and check every program at the source on the day.

Get my assessmentRead a real one firstWe pull your ABN, GST and licence position first — the housekeeping that quietly decides eligibility and gets applications bounced before anyone reads them.
Federal, state and council money — grants, asset write-offs, training subsidies, apprentice incentives (often $20,000+ stacked for a first apprentice) — each one checked against the funder's own page, with the closed ones listed so you don't waste an evening.
A watch-list for grants about to open, and a plain-English call on the three things actually worth doing this quarter. If nothing's worth your time, we say that instead.
Don't take our word for it. This is the exact assessment a Queensland plastering company received in August 2026 — shared with their permission. If it's not worth $495 on your business, don't buy it.
Open the real report ↓Close ↑Hi name,
We ran redacted Plastering through the same eligibility check we do for every client, and checked every item against the funder's own page on the day. Here's the honest picture.
First, the good news most new businesses don't get: the company has been registered with an ABN and GST for eighteen months — and that matters, because the grants that exclude younger businesses on trading history are ones they'll clear the moment a round reopens.
Right now, none of Queensland's general cash grants for small business are open. So today the money is in the construction-specific pipeline, training subsidies, hiring incentives and tax settings. Two grants are worth watching closely — and one of them was practically written for a plastering company.
The program name is sitting on the official grants schedule marked “opening soon”. No guidelines published yet, but it's as close to a bullseye as it gets — being ready in week one matters, because Queensland grants routinely exhaust their funding early. We flag it the day it opens.
01 — $20,000 instant asset write-off, now permanent from 1 July 2026: laser levels, stilts, sheet lifters, scaffold, trailer, tools — anything under $20,000 per asset, written off in the year you buy it. (This one's shown in full so you can judge the quality.)
02 — an industry fund that pays 75–100% of course costs for building-industry workers — tickets, licences, and the qualification pathway. The current funding window closes date.
03 — program: five hours of one-on-one digital advice for $110.
01 — program: $10,000–$16,000 for a first-ever apprentice, with plastering qualifications named on the eligible list. Capped statewide, first come, first served — open now.
02 — program: up to $10,000 to the apprentice and $5,000 to the employer.
03 — program: half the apprentice's wage paid while they're away at block training.
04 — program: course fees covered entirely.
Three free programs worth using · one licence check that quietly gets applications bounced · a calendar note for the grant this business qualifies for the day it reopens · and five closed programs named, so nobody wastes an evening on them.
