Install a curtain rail and repair holes
$150
Newtown NSW 2042, Australia
29th May 2025
This is trickier than it sounds due to the material of the walls which seems to be some kind of hollow brick so neither the standard method for solid brick nor gyprock will do. The existing curtain rail needs to be lowered due to the installation of an air conditioner. There may be various other jobs we will offer as well (separate to this)


Good job, Tim was on time and completed the job well.

Hang painting, lamp, power strip on a brick wall. Install a door sweep
$100
Newtown NSW, Australia
7th Apr 2025
looking for someone to help hang a bunch of things. A painting, a power strip, and a light all on a brick wall. The light has a plastic rim that will need to have a small cut out to make room for the wire. Also need to install the door sweep. The door sweep will need to be trimmed to fit. The existing rubber door sweep will need to be removed. it would be awesome if you have time to do this tonight (Monday) but if not then we can work out a time for tomorrow as well. I’d estimate this would take less than 40 minutes altogether maybe much quicker depending on how you work


Super speedy, direct communication, efficient and tidy!! thank you so much!

Airconditioner maintenance (re-post)
$200
Newtown NSW 2042, Australia
20th Feb 2022
***Reposting task with lower cost as requested by a few Airtaskers*** Air conditioning in house can be turned on for 4 different areas of the house, on have issues in 2 of the areas. 1) in the main Bedroom the air conditioner has become very loud and does not cool like it used to 2) Turing the the air con for study/office currently causes a leak in the roof of an adjoining toilet. This does not happen when it is raining only occurs if we have the air on on for this room for a while. (Photo of leak coming through roof in toilet attached) Air conditioning only installed just before we moved in about 3 years ago and it is not used frequently. Access seems very reasonable (based on me having 0 experience in the field) but I can see what appear to be several access points (2 photos attached) upstairs where the issues are and the attic has access also (2 Photos attached)


Really lovely guy, who took the time to explain what was going on - showed us what he had to do and why he had to do it. And he even checked the rest of the place for us. Highly recommended.
