General handyman work prior to sale of house

$600

Merewether NSW 2291, Australia

13th Oct 2026

We are intending to sell our house shorty and they are a lot of minor handyman jobs that need doing. Replacing some small bits of rotting timber, minor paint touch up, pressure cleaning paths, cleaning mould off external weather boards, spreading mulch on gardens, and probably a few other things that will crop up. I can't really guess how long it will take, but I'm happy to pay $60 per hour to get it all done. I've had to put in a budget (I guessed $600), but if it takes more than 10 hours I'll keep paying the hourly rate of $0. All I want is good solid work and I'll pay fairly for it

Ceiling fan installation

$200

Merewether NSW 2291, Australia

9th Oct 2026

No high or valued ceilings. No previous fans have been installed. Just light globes in each room. I'm definitely wanting at least one fan installed, possible 3 depending on prices. I can provided fans myself, or if you have advice on decent cheap fans, or recommendations, I'm living in community housing and have been told you would have to be a qualified electrician and supply a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical work at completion. Willing to negotiate on prices, depending on work needed and if I can afford all three. If not, I will just get one. Installed. Roof/ ceiling access available in unit.

Sanding down door and window frames

$280

Merewether NSW, Australia

28th Feb 2026

We had a botched painting job on our entry room and are wondering if anyone has the interest/skills/equipment to help us fix it? White paint was applied over red paint (without proper prep) and it’s now peeling. We think it might be timber underneath so it’d be great to sand it back to expose that timber. We could then treat/varnish the timber; just looking for someone to do the sanding please. The task is for the frame around the door and the frame around it those glass bricks, please see photos.

Highly recommend! Thanks very much Shane.
