SafeSource

High Value/Risk Projects

What SafeSource is

SafeSource is a done‑for‑you buying service for major projects - especially $100K+ renovations and custom builds - where getting it wrong is expensive, stressful, and hard to unwind.

It helps you decide what you actually need, which suppliers or builders to invite for quotes, and how to structure that process so you can compare like‑for‑like instead of guessing.​

This can be focused guidance on which contractors to approach for a six‑figure kitchen or main‑floor renovation, or a full turn‑key sourcing process that starts with an RFP/tender package to design‑build firms for a custom home or major renovation, in a format good contractors welcome and weaker ones tend to avoid.

You share your project, budget, timing, and biggest concerns. We then:

  • Clarify your goals and constraints.

  • Recommend a tailored SafeSource roadmap - for example, a curated shortlist of vetted contractors for a major renovation, or a structured tender to select the right design‑build team for your custom home.

  • Explain exactly what we’ll do for you and what you’ll receive (such as a builder shortlist, comparison summary, or RFP package) before we proceed.

When to Use it

SafeSource is best utilised when:

  • You’re planning a big spend around $100K+ (new kitchen or bathrooms, main‑floor renovation, basement redevelopment, or a full custom‑built home).

  • You’re staring at wildly different quotes (2‑page “plus/minus 15%” vs 40+ pages of detail) and have no way to compare them fairly.

  • You feel overwhelmed by the process, conflicting advice, and “everyone has a guy” referrals.

  • You don’t have the time - or appetite - to spend weeks lost in research, reviews, and back‑and‑forth with salespeople, and you want a structured, professional sourcing process instead.

  • You want a process that good, reputable contractors are happy to work with—and that quietly filters out the ones who aren’t.

SafeSource can stand on its own or work alongside SafeGuard and SafeSelect—giving you structured sourcing, apples‑to‑apples quotes, evaluation, and deeper contract review if your project needs it.

What Happens Next

Pricing

SafeSource pricing is based on the complexity of your project and the sourcing process we use - whether that’s targeted contractor shortlisting or a full RFP/tender for a custom build.

Each engagement has a clear minimum fee and then scales with scope, so you only pay for the level of structure and support your project actually needs

We’ll outline the recommended approach, the minimum for that level of support, and any additional options before you decide to go ahead.
