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 Paddington project with AI, then routes you to one builder who has already cleared City of Sydney + Woollahra Municipal Council permit + overlay checks for the federation and victorian terrace (paddington terrace) your home likely is.
