I manage a large portfolio of premium properties, so having reliable and capable tradespeople I can trust is incredibly important.

John from Ample Trade is an absolute gun and my go-to for all the challenging jobs, big or small. No matter the size of the job or how complicated or unusual the issue, he always manages to find a practical solution and get it sorted.

John is reliable, knowledgeable, responsive and a genuine problem-solver. It’s invaluable having a tradesperson I can confidently rely on, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend John and Ample Trade.

John was fantastic. Stop shopping around and use this guy for all of your electrical and plumbing work. His skill level, professionalism and demeanour won’t be matched. I’m 55. Over the years I’ve dealt with various tradespeople across varied situations.

John is head and shoulders above the rest.

On top of that I felt very comfortable having him in my home and he left not a single mark behind. Excellent work. Astute. Polite. Clean. So good I got him to quote me on some other work that I’ll be getting him back to do.

Rose STRACHEN

John is the real deal. I have engaged his services across several properties and trust and respect his feedback on how best to address both large and small issues. His friendly nature and genuine care in ensuring the finished result is perfect for all involved (agents, property managers, owners and tenants) speaks volumes to his strong work ethic. Ample is simply awesome!

John has been out to my apartment in Sydney CBD a few times for different maintenance jobs and he’s been brilliant every time. He’s helped with plumbing, lights and general repairs and always gets everything sorted quickly and properly. Really knows his stuff, super easy to deal with and genuinely a great bloke. Would definitely recommend John to anyone looking for a reliable handyman in Sydney CBD or help with property maintenance in Sydney

Miguel Anton

I have been working with John for three years and he is absolutely sensational. My clients love him and his quality of workmanship is unbeatable. Would highly recommend Ample Trades. 10/10 service, reliability and quality.

Nicholas Rivett

Have been using Ample for quite a few years now and they are always willing to help out and attend to matters in a speedy timeframe. John is always contactable

Boyd Barton

I've used these guys on multiple properties before taking them to market, and I honestly couldn't recommend them more highly.

They're reliable, punctual, and always produce quality work. Whether it's repairs, patching, painting or general maintenance, everything is completed to a high standard and on time. They understand the importance of presentation when preparing a property for sale and consistently help us maximise the appeal of our listings.

Communication is excellent, pricing is fair, and nothing is ever too much trouble. It's great to have a tradesperson I can trust to get the job done properly every time.

Highly recommended to anyone looking for honest, professional workmanship.

Les Donayre

John who is a registered Electrician and plumber came in and saved the day with our apartment we are renting in. He fixed multiple issues at the same time. We were dealing with existing historical problems that were identified in our condition report.

Johns expertise, was on the ball and quicky solved all problems we had outlined. The fact that john had mulltiple trades under his belt meant something that would typically take a few people to fix was fixed by one person. Sweet.

We needed tap replacement, bathroom exhaust replacement, and the oven panel to be glued back on place. (Which in 1 day we csn take the tape off)

Overall would recommend John again. Thanks!

Billbo Swaggins

I recently used Ample Trade Services for some renovation work, including waterproofing and tiling, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations.

The team was friendly, reliable and communicated clearly throughout the whole process. They arrived on time, worked efficiently and maintained a high level of professionalism from start to finish. The waterproofing was completed with great care, and the tiling was finished beautifully with precise cuts, straight lines and excellent attention to detail.

What impressed me most was how organised and tidy they were, making sure everything was cleaned up before they left. It’s clear they genuinely care about the quality of their work and customer satisfaction.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ample Trade Services to anyone needing waterproofing, tiling or other renovation work. Their workmanship, reliability and service are second to none, and I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects.

Athanasia Mitropoulou

It’s not easy being the middle man with tenants and landlords but the guys at Ample Trade do have our backs. Shout out to John for getting things organised quickly, and Sam for getting it done. Calmly, politely and with diligence.

Justine Marino

We have been using John's service for our cafe and he can do everything! From plumbing to electrical work, building & interiors, he handles it all. Truly the best in Sydney for trade and maintenance work, and he does it super fast every time. Highly recommend for any cafe or business owner who needs a reliable all-rounder tradie!

Santy Lawrensia

After getting a few quotes, I decided to go with Ample Trade Services and I’m so glad I did. They were easy to deal with, answered all my questions and kept me updated throughout the job.

They completed the tiling in my laundry and ensuite, and the finished result completely transformed the space. Every tile was laid perfectly, the edges were neat and everything looked clean and polished. You can tell they pay attention to the little details that make a big difference.

What really stood out was how respectful they were of my home. They worked efficiently, minimised the mess and cleaned everything up before leaving each day.

It’s hard to find trades that are reliable, skilled and genuinely care about the final result, but Ample Trade Services delivered on all three. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them to anyone planning a renovation.

Andy Stavropoulos

Our story.

Sixteen years ago John started Ample.

am·ple /ˈam·pəl/ adjective

“Fully sufficient for a purpose.”

His dad's name had been trusted for 47 years, and that is the standard John grew up with. Over time, Ample built the capacity for every licensed trade, handled by one contact.

1979

AMNO General Contractors

Michael, John's father, started AMNO General Contractors, one of the only trades carrying electrical and plumbing under one name across the Eastern Suburbs. Trusted for 47 years.

2000s

Licensed electrician and plumber

John underwent his apprenticeship as an electrician and plumber. Every other trade a property needs, he now runs through a licensed team.

2010

Built for scale

John started his own business and named it ‘Ample’ with the purpose: to provide the perfect service Dad was known for, but on an abundant scale.

Today

Every trade, one standard

The trusted all-trades service for agents and property managers in the Sydney CBD and Eastern Suburbs.

Frequently asked questions.

Every trade a property needs, short of new builds. One list in, one team out. You stop working out who to call, send it to Ample and it gets done. We take the headache.

Yes, that's exactly the model. One contact for every trade across the property, one person who routes it, sequences it, and stands behind it. One relationship instead of a contractor rolodex.

As one turnkey job: fixtures off and back on, flooring, painting, sequenced by one hand so nothing gets double-handled. The property re-lists sooner, and it's one price for the whole job.

Send the list and we scope it as one job, one price, one team. Everything's quoted before work starts, and we respond the same day.

Because it buys the whole problem disappearing. The job's done once, properly, on the timeline you need, and it doesn't come back. Cheap costs you the chasing, the rework, and the tenant complaints. You pay for the convenience, and the convenience is the product.

The east side of Sydney, properly: the Eastern Suburbs, the CBD, and everything east of the Glebe to Tempe to Ramsgate line, down through Mascot, Botany and La Perouse to the Bayside beaches. One tightly held patch served deeply, not thin reach across the metro.

Sixteen years. John is a licensed electrician and plumber who started Ample after years as his father's apprentice, and his father's name was trusted in the trade for 47 years. Two generations, half a century of the same craft.

One contact. Every trade.

Send through what the property needs and we will respond the same day.
