I highly recommend National Licensing. They are very experienced and knowledgeable. I have been busy working. & have no time and no idea how to prepare the required paperwork. After 6 weeks, my builder licence was approved!

Called them about builders licence, they asked about experience and proof of trade cert 3 & 4, they did all the paperwork ready to submit, get my licence back in 4 weeks. Easy to deal with. Fast service

National Licensing is professional and very responsible. They assisted and prepared the document for my builder licence application. I think they are very competent and trustworthy.

The whole licensing process felt overwhelming at first, but these guys made it simple. Clear advice, quick turnaround, and no hidden surprises. The fees were reasonable and fair, and I liked being invoiced instead of paying big fees upfront. Highly recommend.

I didn’t have the time to chase paperwork and requirements. They handled everything, kept me updated, and got my licence sorted without the stress.

Professional, straightforward, and easy to work with. They knew exactly what was needed for my business to get licensed fast.

From start to finish, they made the licensing process smooth. Expert guidance and no fuss – just results. They also helped with my PM certificate, all under one roof.
