Ask Baily instead of Hipages
Hipages publishes a directory — you still have to call 3–5 contractors, chase quotes, and vet licensing yourself. AskBaily scopes your St Kilda project with AI, then routes you to one builder who has already cleared City of Port Phillip permit + overlay checks for the inter-war art deco apartment and edwardian villa your home likely is.
