About TradesHelper
We build simple, rock-solid tools that save independent tradespeople hours of frustrating paperwork every week.
Built From Trade Legacy
We founded **TradesHelper** in 2026 as an independent software project born out of long family and business connections to the trade. TradesHelper founder, Bren Warren, comes from a family that has run a plumbing and heating business in Wales, UK for decades. He first identified the need for the app while helping his brother with their digital paperwork and day-to-day administrative headaches.
Combining this direct trade background with deep software experience, Bren spent years providing digital administration services directly to tradespeople—setting up digital tools, invoicing systems, and websites for plumbers, electricians, carpenters, and other professionals.
We saw firsthand how frustrated independent contractors were with bloated, corporate admin software. We don't build complex, expensive CRMs. We build lightweight tools that do the heavy lifting for you, so you can rescue hours from paperwork and get your evenings back.
Our Philosophy
Enterprise Standards, Simplified for the Field
We believe that administrative tools should work in the background, not get in the way of your physical trade. We focus on absolute privacy, high-performance security, and zero-bloat design.
UK GDPR & Privacy-First
Fully compliant with UK GDPR regulations. All customer records and financial histories are hosted in secure European data centres.
Instant Note & Receipt Parsing
Hands-free tools reading supplier invoice receipts and creating customer profiles directly from jotted notes.
UK Tax Compliance
Built specifically around the UK trade landscape (standard VAT rates and CIS deductions) right out of the box.
