How to Add Skills in Build Buddy: Guide for Mobile & Desktop

What skills do I need to add?

You don’t need to add skills if you're working with contractors or other professionals who will handle all aspects of your project.

However, if you are a contractor or tradesperson yourself, and plan to be doing work on your own project in Build Buddy, you can add your skills and insurances in your settings. If you plan on doing parts of the project yourself, such as installing appliances or managing minor tasks, it’s useful to list your skills and insurances here.
