We need a tradesman to remove and replace an inbuilt bath. The bath is 1500 long, 700 wide and 470 high. We will provide the new bath.

Pool gate repair

Canterbury VIC, Australia

Repair 4 soft close kitchen drawers

$300

Canterbury VIC, Australia

22nd May 2025

Our kitchen was installed around 2010 and four of the soft close drawers no longer 'catch' and stay shut. They are all 'press to open'. The company which installed the kitchen is out of business and I can't find replacements of the fittings at the rear of the cabinets which seem to keep the drawers closed. New slide mechanisms with a similar soft close and push to open may be required. We are willing to buy replacement parts or have you supply them.

Sound proof a side fence

$200

Canterbury VIC 3126, Australia

8th May 2025

I would like to make this side fence more soundproof to eliminate traffic noise. Not sure if metal or wood backing to each part of the fence but am open to ideas. Would also consider a vinyl wrap or something similar if it will help with noise. The gate still needs to open and close normally so I think 3 separate backings will be needed. And it needs to look aesthetically pleasing!

Install timber wall panels and floating shelf

$300

Canterbury VIC, Australia

7th Apr 2025

Hi there, I’m looking for a reliable and experienced person to install some timber wall panels in an interior room. There are 7 panels to be installed - I’d like panels to be screwed (using black screws) into studs rather than using glue. Wall is 400 (w) x 300cm (h). Each panel is 60 (w) x 280cm (h) so there’s no need to cut panels for height, but you’ll need to make some cuts in panels to allow for a couple of in-wall speakers and GPOs (see photos). I’d also like an IKEA floating shelf (110cm) installed over the timber panels once installed. Wednesday 9 April or Friday 11 April works best for me. Thanks Lawrence.

Lina is a wizard with the tools, if I could give 6 stars, I would. Super responsive, punctual, hard working, did a great job and it was a pleasure to deal with. I’d very happily work with him again.
