Where is the Tradie Diary? The Tradie Diary Has a New Name: The Construction Diary

If you’ve relied on The Tradie Diary to stay on top of your projects, don't worry, we haven't taken it away - we've just revamped it. The Tradie Diary has now been renamed to The Construction Diary—but rest assured, it’s still the same great diary that tradies across Australia know and trust.

And it now has its very own home.

Why the Name Change?

The new name, The Construction Diary, better reflects the broad range of trades and industries using the diary every day—from builders and electricians to concreters, plumbers, and more. It’s all about making it easier for you to recognise exactly what the diary supports: construction professionals managing real work, in the real world.

But the diary itself? It hasn’t changed a bit.

The Construction Diary is still for you whether you're a plumber, sparky, labourer or sheep shearer - we've got you covered.

Why the Move to a New Site?

With a new name, came a new look that was bigger, bolder, and better. So, why not give it its own home too?

We moved The Tradie Diary, now known as the Construction Diary, to its very own site:

  • To better serve Australia’s trades with industry-specific tools and bundles
  • To separate Early Childhood and Construction ranges
  • To give you faster service, clearer navigation, and more relevant content

We’re still the same team, with the same great diaries — just in a new location!

Head to The Construction Diary to find the Diaries you know and love.

Thanks for supporting Australian-owned businesses!

So, is the NEW Tradie Diary, The Construction Diary, still for me?

It sure is! The Construction Diary is designed for Aussie and New Zealand Tradies looking to manage their day with the reliability of pen and paper. No matter your Trade or Sector - the Tradie Diary helps you keep your notes organised on the page rather than one blank page filled with measurements, notes, and reminders.

So, no matter your Trade, your role, or where you are at in your Construction and Building career - The Construction Diary for Tradies is here for you.

Still the Same Tradie Diary You Know and Love

While the name has evolved, the diary retains everything that made The Tradie Diary a must-have worksite companion. Here’s what’s still inside:
