Earlier this year, we launched Show Up: Win A Brand Makeover, our trade makeover competition with Checkatrade, to help UK tradespeople stand out, build trust and grow their business with stronger branding.
Hundreds of hardworking tradespeople entered, and five winners were selected for their passion, ambition and plans for the future.
The rebrands are now complete – woo! The vans are wrapped, the logos are live and the business cards are in their toolkits.
Each winner received:
- A design consultation and a £500 rebranding package from 99designs by Vista
- £1,000 to spend on VistaPrint marketing materials
- A free VistaCreate Pro subscription
➕ One grand prize winner also received a £3,000 cash grant to invest in their trade business.

Meet Claudiu
After three years of growing Aqua Painting on Checkatrade, Claudiu was ready to make a bigger mark.
