Outdoor Blind System Replacement – Keeps Breaking in Wind (East Melbourne) Striped is what we have for current system we want same as the black system Looking for an experienced outdoor blind / awning installer to fix an ongoing issue at a residential property in East Melbourne. The current motorised drop-down blinds keep breaking and coming loose, even in light wind. They’re installed using a metal wire guide system, which clearly isn’t suitable. The motors aren’t the problem — the system itself is. A nearby property has a much stronger, wind-resistant blind system that works really well. We want to replace the existing setup with something similar — a proper track-guided or rigid system, not wire cables. ⸻ What We Need • Inspect the current blind setup • Explain why it keeps failing • Recommend a better, wind-safe system • Remove or modify the existing system • Supply and install a strong, long-lasting replacement • Reuse existing motors if possible (or advise if new ones are needed) ⸻ Fabric • Happy to reuse the existing fabric if it’s suitable (preferred option we like the colour) • Or replace it with a similar or better outdoor fabric that handles wind ⸻ Important This isn’t a handyman fix or quick repair. We’re after a proper long-term solution from someone who knows outdoor blinds. Photos will be provided showing: • The current broken system • Where it’s failing • The nearby system we want to match ⸻ Please Only Reply If • You have experience with outdoor blinds / awnings • You’ve installed wind-resistant systems before • You don’t use wire guide systems • You can show examples of similar work ⸻ When Replying, Please Include • Your experience • Photos or examples of similar jobs • What system you’d recommend • Availability to inspect in East Melbourne

Bought a shed from Bunnings. Just looking for someone to put it together for me. It’s is the: Absco Sheds 1.52 x 0.78 x 1.95m Zincalume Zinc Single Door Garden Shed

Hi, I have a heavy, antique hardwood timber bedframe from marketplace that is attached at each corner by a singular bolt. This causes the side pieces to rotate and is not very secure. I’ve tried securing with a socket wrench and even using a power drill from Bunnings to drill a pilot hole and add a secondary bolt but I wasn’t able to drill the bolt in for some reason and it got stuck. Am looking for a carpenter who might be able to drill in a secondary bolt or another way to secure. Also as an aside, if you can also drill a hole in the wall to hang a print that would be awesome and a bit extra.

Repair 3 stripped screw holes on bed legs. One side of a towel rack needs fixing to the bathroom wall. (I suspect the whole is stripped or damaged as screwing the rack in place doesn't really do anything. It just keeps turning).

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.

I have purchased a new integrated fridge to replace the old one, and need someone to attach and hang the cabinet doors. It is a fixed hinge and I have salvaged the old hinges. The fridge model is a euro appliances E276IFBM.
