Why Frank

Not a directory. Not a bidding war.

One builder per postcode

Most platforms send your details to five builders and let them fight over you. Frank matches you with one — the one who earned the right to be there.

Every builder is verified before you see them

Licence confirmed. Insurance current. Track record reviewed. Not a badge they bought — verified facts you can check yourself.

Frank is paid by the builder, not by you

That is why Frank is selective. When the business model rewards quality over volume, the recommendations get better. Simple maths.

Three steps. No surprises.

Enter your suburb

Frank confirms a verified builder covers your area. Licence confirmed, insurance current, track record checked — Frank has done the work so you don't have to.

Lodge your $500 service fee

$500, fully refundable. It tells your builder you are serious. It tells Frank you are ready.

One introduction. One conversation.

No auction. No five quotes from strangers racing to undercut each other. One builder who knows your area and has capacity for your project.

Frank Verified

What Frank Verified means

Every builder on Frank carries the Frank Verified seal. It is not a membership badge. It is not something they paid for. It means three things have been independently confirmed.

Licence

Licence checked against the state authority register. If it lapses, they come off Frank.

Frank

Verified

The seal is earned. About half of applicants do not pass the vetting process.

Service fee

The $500 that proves you're serious

Before Frank introduces you to a builder, you lodge a $500 service fee. It exists for one reason: to protect builders from tyre-kickers, and to protect you from wasting time with a builder juggling twenty speculative enquiries.

Your $500 is held by Frank, not the builder. If you proceed, it is applied toward your build. If you decide not to proceed, it is returned in full. No questions, no conditions.

The service fee is the reason every introduction through Frank is a real one.

$500

Commitment
deposit

← Refunded in full if you choose not to proceed
✓ Held by Frank — not the builder
→ Credited to your build if you proceed

Questions homeowners ask

Before you search

Is Frank actually free for homeowners?

Frank is free to use. The only cost is a $500 deposit (service fee) lodged before matching begins. If you proceed, it is applied toward your build. If you choose not to proceed, it is returned in full. Builders pay a monthly subscription to Frank — that is the entire revenue model, and the reason Frank is selective about who joins.

What if I don't like the builder Frank recommends?

Tell Frank. No obligation, no pressure. If the match is not right, Frank will review the situation and, where possible, connect you with a verified builder in a nearby postcode. The introduction is a recommendation, not a commitment.

How do I know the builder won't go broke mid-build?

Every builder on Frank has their licence and insurance verified before joining. Frank monitors both on an ongoing basis. If either lapses, the builder is removed from the network. Your home building insurance also protects you if the worst happens — and Frank confirms it is in place.

What areas does Frank cover?
