Who we are

We build where others won’t go

Remote Trades Co Australia is a registered WA building contractor (BC106843) built for remote and regional project delivery. We currently service all of remote WA, building camps, warehouses and remote facilities and holding long-term maintenance contracts across some of the state’s most demanding locations.

As head-contract builder we take responsibility for the whole job — self-performing building works and managing a trusted network of subcontractors for civil, electrical, plumbing and specialist trades. Clients get one accountable builder, real systems and reporting, and delivery that stands up to remote conditions.

Safety on site
Site-specific inductions, JHAs and take-5s, fit-for-work crews — working under our systems or fully integrated with the client’s.
Live site reporting
Daily site diaries, photos and timesheets captured from site — clients see progress as it happens, not at month end.
Cost & program control
Every job costed in real time against budget and program, so there are no surprises at claim time.

About RTC

Built for the conditions

Remote Trades Co Australia is a registered Western Australian building contractor (BC106843) built to deliver in remote and regional Australia. We grew out of nearly two decades of hands-on construction across WA and the NT, and today build camps, sheds and remote facilities and hold long-term maintenance contracts for mining, resources, infrastructure and government clients.

As head-contract builder we self-perform building works and manage the trades around them — giving clients one accountable partner, real systems and delivery built for the conditions.

Behind the registration is a full delivery team — site leads, trade crews, and operations and mobilisation support — with a director who still gets on the tools.

Leadership

Codey Hopper

Director

Codey brings close to 20 years of hands-on construction experience across WA and the NT. Starting as a carpentry apprentice at 16, he has worked up through quoting, procurement, logistics and site supervision on residential, commercial, industrial and remote infrastructure projects. In 2025 he established Remote Trades Co as a standalone business focused on regional and mine-site construction.

Codey leads with a practical, boots-on-the-ground approach — personally overseeing key phases to keep safety, quality and program on track.

The team

One crew. Every trade.

RTC is director-led and crew-delivered. The people on our sites are the people who priced the job, planned the swing and answer the phone — backed by an operations team keeping every job visible, costed and compliant.

Director & site leadership
Hands-on leadership across every project, on the ground for key phases.
Site leads & trade crews
Carpenters, installers and riggers who know remote work — FIFO-ready and site-inducted.

Planning, compliance, logistics and live reporting behind every swing.
Managed trade partners
Licensed civil, electrical and plumbing subcontractors, coordinated under one contract.

Mental health

We look out for our own

Remote work is tough. Long swings, big days and a long way from home take a toll on even the best crews — and nobody on an RTC site has to carry that on their own.

If you’re struggling, or you’re worried about a mate, the services below are free, confidential and run by people who know the industry. Reaching out is the strong move.

Work with us

Good on the tools. Better in the bush.

RTC is growing, and we’re always looking for trades who suit remote work — people who turn up, sort problems on the spot and take pride in doing the job once, properly.

In return you get consistent remote and FIFO work across the Pilbara and Goldfields, proper systems behind you, gear that works, and a director-led team where your name is known — not a number in a labour pool.
