For the right person, a Tidy Slabs Partnership is the smartest and safest way to take control of your work-life balance and give your income a handsome nudge upwards.
There’s way less risk than starting a company on your own, but you get the upside being a business owner because you partner with a company with a stellar track record, an awesome, supportive office team, national relationships and a pipeline full of the right work.
“It’s quick and easy. We’re in and out and onto the next job. There’s no way I could get these results on my own.” - Tidy Slabs Partner, Micheal Martin, 25. 6 years experience.
You don’t need any specialised skills, you need to be an LBP (if you’re not yet, we can help you become one). You need to be a motivated, hard worker who can communicate with us, our customers, and your 2-3-person crew. Once set up and running smoothly, our dedicated Tidy Partners can take home six figures - on top of their salary.
We work hard to keep your gig simple. We feed you the work and handle all the administration like sales, quality assurances, design and invoicing. You manage the site. You and your crew lay the foundations.
1. You can make a salary plus six-figures as a Partner. If you’re a hard worker, you can make a packet, without taking much risk.
2. You become a business owner without all the administration stresses. We feed you the jobs and you lay the slabs. Our head office does all the administrative work behind the scenes.
3. You focus on one thing and you do that well - laying slabs and smashing it.
4. You take control of your life, so when you do tha mahi, you not only get a handsome salary but you also get way more control of your work-life balance
5. Opportunities for growth beyond laying slabs. We live and breathe getting better, whether that’s watching Jocko Willink, upskilling on a course, or getting Ross (Tidy Partner) to teach us how to stick a pig. Life is short and we need to learn and grow into who we can be. We believe we should have fun doing it!
“Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.” — Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
To be blunt, people who want to get better - get better. People who get shit done - do well. Good people with good values - strive.
If you’re hungry to make more of your life. If you want more control and to enjoy the successes of your hard work, then you’ll do well as a Tidy Partner. You’ll need to be dedicated, organised and humble. We have a ‘No dickhe@d’ policy which speaks for itself.

It’s hard running a small business in New Zealand - 60% fail after two years. Quite often people who are good on the tools feel burdened with all the administration it takes to run a successful business. In this partnership, both teams do what they do best to deliver an exceptional service to our shared client
We do the sales and get the work, we set up the job, we suss the materials. You manage your team and deliver the slabs.
We get a trusted team to deliver on our promises to clients. We fizz on helping people, it makes us happy to see people prosper. We’ve had employed teams but find that people do better when they have skin in the game. Hard work = more pay!
The idea behind the Tidy Partner model is that there’s less stress because we both do what we do well. Too many small business owners struggle to fit administrative work into their day. They spend evenings doing the paperwork. We are stoked when we can pack all the mahi into a work day and when you’re with the family, you’re actually with the family. We’ve had all types of people run crews. If you’re curious and want to know what a normal day is like, here’s a sample.
Mate, get in touch. We’re happy to help people find their purpose, create a cool life. Whether you’re with Tidy or another company, what’s more important is that we help each other. So, don’t be shy. If we’re busy, we’ll call back.

In 2016, construction company owner Sam Faisandier was forced to use a sub-trade that let him down time
and time again. During the most complex part of the build, Sam noticed there was:
Sam’s idea was to handle this complex process by taking full control from grass to frame ready. Determined to provide a better solution. Sam, along with Andy Garvie and Paddy Faisandier, started Tidy Slabs. We began with better scheduling, better training and better communications. It wasn’t too long before design, earthworks, and on-site management were added to the mix.
