Stain and clear coat timber shelves

$1,000

Redfern NSW, Australia

11th Jun 2026

Hi, I've got 5 lots of book cases with 6 shelves on each of them that need 3 coats of stain applied to each area and two coats of clear. Between each coat the timber needs to be sanded. Also, the whole area needs to be prepared, the screw holes patched, and everything taped so stain doesn't go on the paint. The timber is mostly ply with a hardwood capping. Also, there is a 1.5x1.5 area that needs to be painted cream, the same as the rest of the house. It was just rendered.

Perfect. Excellent work. Great guy.

I've like to get one long solid wood (walnut type of stain) shelf in my kitchen built and installed. Current photos of the kitchen with a small shelf are attached along with a rough mockup of what I'm looking for. Rough measurements: Left side shelf: L = 175cm Ideal depth = 32-35cm Right side shelf L = 41cm Depth = 26cm as right side wall has a window so can't go any deeper

Apply wood stain to rear panelling

$500

Redfern NSW, Australia

11th Mar 2026

I need two coats of wood stain/varnish applied to the second story panelling at the rear of our house. I've already sanded the vast majority of the surface, you'll just need to spend 1 hour doing the last bits of sanding and then however long it takes to apply the two coats of varnish. I'll provide the varnish, brushes, orbital sander and sand paper (although you can certainly bring any of your own equipment) so the main thing you'll need to supply is the ladder and a drop cloth. There is direct, rear lane access so easy to get everything set up and packed down. Preferred dates are: Sat 14 March - before midday Sun 15th - any time Tue 17th - in the morning

Zabi was great - really good communicator, fast and efficient and most importantly did an excellent job. Highly recommend.

Cabinet Maker to Cut & Re-Join Lacquered TV Unit Carcass

$300

Redfern NSW, Australia

11th Jan 2026

I have a high-quality lacquered TV unit that is 2600mm wide which does not fit into my apartment via lift or stairs. I am looking for an experienced cabinet maker or joiner only to assess and carry out cutting the carcass into two sections that can be brought inside and re-joined on site. This is not a simple cut job. The unit is a single carcass and needs to be handled professionally to avoid visible seams, misalignment or structural weakness. Key details: • TV unit approx 2600mm wide • Lacquered finish • Re-joining must be concealed internally • Outcome must be neat, square and structurally sound Important: • Interior join lines will be visible if done poorly so experience is essential • I am aware a perfect “as new” finish may not be achievable and want honest advice before proceeding • Please do not apply if you only do basic cabinetry or handyman work Please include in your response: • Your experience with lacquered furniture or custom joinery • Examples or photos of similar work if possible • Your proposed method Location: Redfern, NSW Timing: ASAP
