House / Property repairs
$480
Newtown, New South Wales
28th May 2026
Need a lateral thinking, experienced handyman to attend to the following: 1. Resecure light fitting in lounge room 2. Fix ceiling and resecure bathroom fan. Would suggest installing support backing inside ceiling eg timber noggin or plasterboard backing plate, then fixing the damaged edge - cut back to clean square and patch with new plasterboard. Then reinstall fan securely, fill + paint with undercoat and 2 coats of ceiling paint (Zinsser) 3. Separation/cracks in kitchen slate floor (relic of the 80s). Will take advice but initial thoughts was using a dark/matching coloured flex silicone Job is in Newtown in an investment property (single storey house). Prefer someone licensed and with reviews.
Ronen did an excellent job with the repairs in my house. He was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. The quality of the repairs was great, and he made sure everything was completed properly and to a high standard. Communication was smooth throughout, and he was easy to deal with. I’d definitely recommend Ronen to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy handyman.
