What if the biggest thing holding your building business back isn't a lack of staff, it's a lack of the right systems? In this episode, Mick Hawes sits down with Andrew Sirianni, Managing Director of Dcode Group, to talk about one of the most practical topics for any builder or tradie running a small team: how to use automation and custom software to get more done without growing your headcount.

Are your quotes costing you time, profit… or both? In Part 2 of EP 169 of The ToolShed Podcast, Mick Hawes sits down with Joey Hidalgo to unpack one of the biggest bottlenecks in a building business, estimating. Most builders don't struggle because they can't quote… They struggle because they don't have a system behind it.

EP 169.1: How to Hire a Virtual Estimator & Scale Your Construction Business FAST

In this episode of The ToolShed Podcast, I sit down with Joey Hidalgo, founder of The Measuring Company, to unpack one of the biggest hidden challenges in the building industry, estimating. Most builders don't struggle because they lack work. They struggle because estimating becomes a bottleneck. Late nights, second-guessing numbers, and trying to stay competitive without truly understanding costs are all too common. Joey shares how what started as helping a few builders with their quotes quickly revealed a much bigger issue across the industry. It's not just about pricing it's about the absence of systems behind it.
