Install laminate benchtops & 2 cabinets

$500

Ashburton VIC, Australia

27th Jan 2026

I need someone to assist in removing and installing a new laminate benchtop and a couple of cabinets. This task requires someone with experience in installing benchtops or a cabinetmaker and I am curious as to whether one person can do the minor plumbing (new sink, faucet and water filter), or if I need a separate plumber for this. I think this job is straightforward as everything is pre cut to size, it's more so cutting holes for cooktop and sink. It's really an assembly job and getting everything right. I imagine this is a fairly quick job for someone who knows what they are doing. Please provide quote, detail your experience, what elements of this task you are comfortable completing and your availability. You will obviously need power tools. Task breakdown: remove induction cooktop carefully (I believe this is plugged in under counter - no electrician required) remove sink and tap (to discard) remove existing laminate benchtop (to discard) install new laminate benchtop over existing cabinets which has been pre cut to size, join and seal professionally cut holes in new benchtop for cooktop (same location) and new sink, (same area, different location that requires some of the cabinet below to be cut out too) put the induction cooktop back in and seal with appropriate heat resistant seal insert and secure and seal new sink to new benchtop attach double water filter to cabinet under sink, connect plumbing with new faucet in new sink - I should have all parts for this but as the location of faucet is changing this should be investigated more thoroughly assemble 2 kaboodle cabinets (one is for bins - please set up, the other is microwave and drawer) and join together, secure to floor and wall to create small breakfast bar (I can assemble if needed) install pre cut laminate benchtop over breakfast bar cabinets, join and seal secure spare wall cabinet (pictured) above fridge in corner (screw into wall) cut one 900 slice through pine benchtop for laundry area

Trim Bottoms of 5 Timber Doors – No Tools Provided

$300

Glen Iris VIC, Australia

7th Jun 2025

Hi there! I need a handy person to trim/shave the bottoms of 5 internal timber doors that are now catching on the new carpet after recent installation. All doors are currently hung and just need a small amount trimmed from the bottom You will need to bring all your own tools (e.g. planer, drop sheets, screwdriver, etc.) Task includes removing each door, trimming it neatly, and rehanging Must have experience with this type of job and work cleanly and carefully Important note: It’s currently wet and rainy here, and although the doors don’t feel damp, the atmosphere is humid. I’d appreciate your advice on whether it’s best to wait for drier conditions or trim a minimal amount now and potentially recheck later if needed. Looking to get this done soon, but I can be flexible with timing.
