Remove Timber Venetian Blinds & Install New Curtains and Rod

$200

Redfern NSW 2016, Australia

5th Oct 2026

I need someone to remove the existing timber Venetian blinds from a large bedroom window and install a new curtain rod for sheer curtains. The job involves: * Carefully removing the existing timber Venetian blinds, including brackets/hardware. * Removing any wall/frame-mounted blind hardware and cords. * Installing the new curtain rod I have already purchased. * Ensuring the rod is securely and neatly mounted. * Patch/fill any small screw holes from the old blind hardware if required. The window is large and the existing blinds appear to be timber Venetian blinds with a timber pelmet/headrail. I already have the new curtain rod and curtains. Photos of the existing window are attached so you can assess the job beforehand. Please bring your own basic tools and appropriate fixings for the curtain rod.

Install chin up bar (Epoxy/chemical anchor)

$100

Redfern NSW 2016, Australia

17th Sep 2026

I have a chin-up bar/swedish ladder that needs to be installed. The item has 6 designated fixture points and came with screws and accompanying holds (10mmx50mm). I have drilled the 6 holes into the wall, however it is only the middle two that have been able to go the full required 50mm deep. The lower and higher points have gone approx 25mm deep before hitting what I believe maybe a steel rebar/stud. I want to explore options getting this installed using the depths available, but also on top of this, to ensure stability, would also like to explore using a chemical anchor such epoxy or resin.

Noor is a legend, super friendly, super efficient and so easy to deal with. He took the time out of his weekend to come over and help us out with the job we posted and he was in and out with 30 mins. Highly recommend!!

Install wall studs to hang paintings across apartment.

$200

Redfern NSW 2016, Australia

7th Sep 2026

Looking for a handyman to hang eight paintings across my apartment. Each artwork requires two secure wall anchor points—16 fixings in total—to ensure the weight is balanced evenly and the frames sit flush and level against the wall. A discreet finish is essential, so the hardware must be neat and concealed behind the frames. The walls are standard apartment plasterboard, so you will need to bring your own drill, stud finder, laser or spirit level, and appropriate heavy-duty hollow-wall anchors or screws. Please mention what type of wall fixings you plan to use when you submit your offer. Flexible with date and time for the right person.

Kee was amazing, her set up all the painting and art very quickly and everything was perfectly centred. He was very nice and punctual.
