Looking for an experienced plasterer/painter to repair several large holes in internal walls caused by impact damage. The job includes: - Repairing and patching the damaged plaster/gyprock walls - Sanding and preparing the repaired areas - Matching the existing wall finish - Priming where required - Repainting the repaired areas/walls Some holes are quite large, so proper plasterboard repair may be required rather than just filling. Please bring your own tools and let me know if materials are included in your offer. Looking for someone experienced who can leave a clean, professional finish. Location: Melbourne
Great service and a really good experience overall. Communication was super quick and easy, and he came out on short notice and got the wall fixed perfectly. He was friendly, positive, professional and clearly knows his trade really well. Very reliable and trustworthy, and the whole job was handled smoothly from start to finish. Highly recomend

I have a new, solid wood front entrance door that needs to be installed. The old door and door stop needs to be removed and the new door stop and front door installed.

Dishwasher fix and maintenance

Essendon VIC, Australia

Hi Airtaskers! Unfortunately the dishwasher is not functioning properly. During operation, the dishwasher produces normal motor sounds; however, at the end of each cycle, the dishes remain unclean and a small amount of water is left at the bottom of the unit. Additionally, water was observed on the floor on one occasion. The dishwasher is a Westinghouse and probably close to 10 years old. Seeking a handy man to inspect and repair any obvious issues.
Great communication. Highly recommend!
