Michael was fantastic. Our front door hasn’t been able to close for some time due to foundations moving… it ended up being a time consuming and tricky job, but he problem solved until he’d fixed it and we were both happy. Delighted! He’ll be back to fix another door soon! Highly recommend! Thanks Michael!!

Repair door frame (& repaint)

$250

Northcote VIC, Australia

28th Jan 2026

Door frame has partially come away (approximately from the bottom up to the middle of the frame). In addition, the fly screen door closer pump has been ripped out of the door frame, including the screws. The door frame may require repair or reinforcement so the door closer pump can be securely reinstalled. Once repairs are complete, the closer pump needs to be refitted correctly. Any areas affected by the repair will need to be patched and repainted where necessary. Paint can be provided. All other materials required (screws, fixings, bog, patch filler, etc) must be supplied

Good job and professional. Thanks

Chair repair

$90

Northcote VIC, Australia

3rd Nov 2025

I have a pair of midcentury chairs, they’re not precious and have been well loved but I’d like to save them from landfill. One of them has sustained a little damage after someone leaned back too far on it and I think it might need to have the arm taken off and the dowel replaced and re-glued. I don’t expect it to be a cosmetically perfect job, but I would like to extend the life of the chair.

What the heck! What a joy - professional fast and delightful and such a great job. Couldn’t recommend more and will use again.
