Install a cat door

$100

Northcote VIC 3070, Australia

30th Jun 2026

I recently brought my cat to live with me in a rental share house. He needs to be able to come and go from my room at night, but I don't want to sleep with my bedroom door open. I have purchased a second-hand door, and a cat flap. The new door is exactly same size as my current bedroom door (standard 820 x 2040 x 35mm, hollow in the middle). The handles are at the same height. I'd like to have a cat flap installed into the new door, have my current bedroom door removed for safe storage, and have the new door installed into the frame.

Another 5 star review for Ramsn. He did a great job. Super friendly, punctual, efficient. Highly recommend 👌

Dryer vent + duct tube reinstallation - 1st Floor Apartment

$250

Northcote VIC, Australia

15th Jun 2026

Looking for a handyman to correctly re-install the external venting for my Electrolux dryer (EDV605H3WB). Unfortunately a previous Airtasker did the work incorrectly and the dryer vent was not reaching the outside. All materials are supplied. The job involves: • Fitting the rear venting kit to the dryer • Running the duct hose through the existing window opening (glass already cut, but sealant poorly applied -- see photos) • Mounting the external vent on the outside of the window • Checking the dryer wall mount is secure and level -- it’s mounted on brick, and seems to not be at the right angle, so I'm not confident the previous installation was done correctly. I will be home to help take down the dryer etc, so I think one person should be enough, but please specify in your reply if you would have two people attending etc. Access and equipment required: • External vent is at the rear of the building, approx. 6--7 metres off the ground, so ladder would be required. It’s right above my allocated car park, so access should be fine. • Brick drill bits if dryer needs to be re-mounted Supplied materials: • Electrolux Universal Dryer Venting Kit with Rear Deflector (ULX104) • Blauberg 100mm White Weatherproof Exterior Wall Cowl (Bunnings) Please only include additional materials in your quote if you think something else will be needed. Photos attached show the current interior setup, the window, the exterior wall.

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
