Build an external timber box to cover gas meter
$50
South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia
24th Oct 2026
I need to replace an existing wooden box which covers our gas meter. The box sits on external decking so needs to be weather proof. Right hand end of the box needs to be open for the gas pipe. The dimensions of the box are W- 53cm, H-53cm, D-37cm. See images of existing box.
Repair timber front-door jamb and align smart-lock strike plate
$250
South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia
21st Oct 2026
Repair front door jamb and recut latch recesses Looking for a carpenter or experienced handyman to repair the timber around our front door’s strike plate. The smart lock works properly, but the existing recesses have been poorly cut and adjusted over time. This sometimes prevents the door-closed sensor from sitting correctly, triggering an alarm even when the door is closed. The job involves: * Checking the door and hinge alignment. * Repairing the damaged area with a fitted timber insert. * Accurately recutting the recesses and refitting the existing strike plate. * Testing that the door closes and locks reliably without triggering the alarm. * Sanding, priming - I can paint as needed at a later date. Getting the recesses and alignment right is the main priority. Photos show the area with and without the strike plate.

Pressure wash and re-stain 5m x 5x deck with two coats
$700
South Melbourne VIC, Australia
30th Apr 2026
As per photographs, our deck could do with a refresh, preferably two coats. It will require a few visits to allow for moving things to one side to stain and dry before moving things back onto freshly stained area. It’s about 5m x 5m and has three steps. 1. Pressure wash 2. Replace some lifting nails with special screws we’ll provide 3. There’s no need to move the large rectangular planter boxes, just reach under to stain, but will need to move smaller pots, table and kennel to one side of deck at a time to stain - we can help 4. Stain one side at a time using mop applicator AND a brush, the gaps between the boards are large enough that the inside edges need to be stained using a brush 5. Care is necessary to avoid drips, because our deck is over a common entrance where neighbours drive their cars in and out so we don’t want drips falling on their cars - we will warn them of timing 6. We have the stain and can buy more as required
