Looking for an experienced, quality-focused practitioner to instal a swing set in my back yard. This is the installation manual: https://share.lifespanonline.com.au/manuals/Kids%20Manual/LSK_Manual_Holt%202-Station_Digital.pdf I can be flexible with when this is done for the right person 🙏🏼 I’m looking to have it installed on a lower tier of my back yard so access is down a couple of steps carved into the rock.

Oscar is brilliant. He installed kids swing set for me on a complex site. Visited the house to scope it out and provide an accurate quote, gave thoughtful recommendations as to what would help make it safe, and then implemented the job quickly and to a high quality. He’s super friendly and courteous too. Thanks Oscar!

Help with a few handyman jobs! 1. Help hanging x2 IKEA curtain rods & x1 set of IKEA blinds. x1 set Vidga curtain track x1 set Racka rod x1 set Fridans blind This should be pretty straightforward, I just don't have the tools required, i.e. ladder, drill & saw. Once the rails are up, I can hang the curtains myself. Just installing the rails I can't do myself. 2. Install a small bolt-lock onto an internal door (just requires a screwdriver) 3. Fix an internal kitchen drawer. It’s coming off its hinges and the holes are worn in, so needs a little tweaking. 4. OPTIONAL - help replacing a ceiling pendant lightshade. Will require a ladder. Open to reasonable offers

Really nice guy and did a great job. Highly recommend!
