I need help fixing my queen size bed. The centre beam falls loose
$100
East Melbourne VIC, Australia
13th May 2025
The centre beam is metal and it sits in two joist brackets. The beam is slightly too short and occasionally falls out if the bracket at either end, causing the mattress to slump. I’ve checked the rest of the bed frame and nothing appears to be loose. Mondays or fridays before midday are best for me.

Blind reset
$50
East Melbourne VIC, Australia
27th Dec 2024
A large blockout blind got unravelled. So it was removed by me. It’s 1800mm long and too large for one person to reinstate. I’ve a ladder. I think it needs a second person with a foot ladder for the blockout blind to reinstate. If you have a foot ladder it shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes.


It was bad as an experience. He texted me at 11.30pm the night before. He had no idea which I expected. All in all I wanted someone who knew what to do.
