Join the Bendigo Building Repairs Team

Trusted Trades. Local Roots. Built to Last.
Since 2009, Bendigo Building Repairs has been the go-to team for high-quality repairs, maintenance, and renovations across homes and businesses in Bendigo and the surrounding regions. What started as a one-person handyman business founded by Danny and Sarah Hipwell has grown into a 15+ strong team of full-time staff and skilled tradespeople — and we’re still growing.
We’re a locally owned, family-run business with deep roots in the Bendigo community. If you take pride in your craft, value doing things properly, and want to work with a team that treats you like family — we’d love to hear from you.
Building a Career, Not Just Doing a Job
Whether you’re an apprentice looking to learn the ropes from experienced tradies, a seasoned carpenter, tiler, painter or plasterer ready for your next chapter, or someone who keeps the wheels turning behind the scenes — there’s a place for you at BBR.
We’re growing across all areas of the business — insurance work, residential renovations, and commercial projects — and we’re always on the lookout for good people who want to be part of something local and reliable.

Locally Based, Locally Focused
Skip the long commutes to Melbourne. Most of our work is in Bendigo and the surrounding regions, so you’ll be home for dinner with the family.

Real Career Pathways
From apprenticeships through to senior leadership, we believe in growing our team from the inside. We invest in upskilling, training, and clear pathways forward.
