Install stainless steel wall shelf onto brick wall

$50

Prahran VIC 3181, Australia

22nd Sep 2026

Looking for someone to install a stainless steel wall shelf onto the brick wall pictured. Shelf, brackets and original mounting hardware/fixings are all supplied. I also have the installation instructions. It needs to be mounted securely and level on the front of the brick wall, underneath the TV, just below the power points. Please take appropriate care when drilling and ideally have a detector to check the area before drilling. Should be a fairly quick and straightforward job for someone with the correct masonry drill/tools and experience mounting into brick. Located in Prahran. Happy for you to use your own suitable masonry fixings instead of the supplied ones if you think they’ll provide a better/safer installation.

Fix loose top hinge on internal door

$125

Prahran VIC 3181, Australia

26th Jul 2026

Hi there, The top hinge on one of my internal doors has come loose because the screws have stripped out of the frame. The door is currently sagging and won't latch properly. To save us both some questions, here are a few quick details: Door Type: Standard internal hollow/solid core wooden door with a standard metal hinge. The Issue: The screw holes in the jamb are maybe stripped or come out, so it likely needs longer screws, wood plugs/dowels, or wood filler so the screws can bite again. I'm not 100% on issue but video below. Tools/Materials: I don't have the specific longer screws or wood filler on hand, so you'll need to bring your own standard toolkit and fixings. I'm not handy. Access: Easy parking available right out front, with permit, ground level. Please let me know your availability to pop by and knock this out. Thanks!

Would hire again, thanks Brendan.
