Reverse roller blind roll direction + reposition curtain track

$150

Paddington NSW 2021, Australia

3rd Sep 2026

1. Reverse the roller blind roll direction – currently the blind rolls off the front of the roller; I’d like it changed so it rolls off the back (or vice versa), so it sits closer to the window/glass. 2. Reposition the curtain track – the sheer curtain track is currently mounted slightly proud of the pelmet/bulkhead. I’d like it moved back so it sits tucked underneath the pelmet, out of sight. What’s needed: • Basic tools for removing/reinstalling the roller blind bracket and curtain track • Care taken not to damage the pelmet, cornice, or wall paint • Curtain re-hung neatly on the repositioned track once moved Photos attached showing the current blind, track position, and pelmet for reference. Looking for someone with blind/curtain installation experience. Happy to answer questions about access or the room before booking.

I'm looking for an experienced shower screen / glass door specialist to inspect and repair a sliding shower screen in my airbnb property located in Paddington, NSW.

Replace any damaged rollers, fittings or hardware if required. Advise whether the glass panel also needs replacing. Ideally, I'd like someone available today or as soon as possible, but I understand this may not be possible. Please let me know: Your earliest availability.

My salon ceiling has water damage and a small section around a downlight that has cracked.

Fix internal door that won’t close properly (alignment + latch issue)

$110

Paddington NSW, Australia

28th Mar 2026

We have an internal door that no longer closes properly — likely due to slight movement in the house and/or a latch issue. From what I can tell: - The door seems slightly misaligned in the frame (may need planing/sanding or hinge adjustment) - The latch/strike plate may not be lining up properly - The handle itself might also need attention (happy to replace internal mechanism if required, but would like to keep the existing handles) Looking for someone who can: - Adjust hinges and/or sand the door if needed - Realign latch/strike plate - Replace internal latch mechanism if faulty (I can cover cost of parts if needed) NOTE: This functional fix only - it doesn’t need to be a perfect cosmetic finish. If any sanding is required, that’s completely fine and doesn’t need repainting or detailed finishing. We’ll be renovating in the future, so priority is just getting the door to close properly. Location: Paddington Date: Must be done before end of Wed 1 April (or as soon as possibles

Matt was so great! Punctual and very knowledgeable. Would recommend without hesitation.
