Patch blueboard, including render and seal

$500

Richmond VIC, Australia

20th Mar 2026

A section of blueboard (fibre cement sheet) has fallen off an external corner on the upper storey of my house (see first picture). The blueboard was originally added over exposed polystyrene panel ends at the corner junction when the extension was built around 15 years ago. It appears to have been adhesive-only fixed, which is likely why it failed. Scope of work: - Safe access to upper storey exterior (you'll need your own ladder/scaffolding) - Scrape back any degraded polystyrene surface to solid foam (it has been exposed for about a month) - Cut and fit new blueboard sheet to cover the exposed area - Fix with both construction adhesive and mechanical fixings (screws into frame) - Seal all edges with polyurethane sealant - Apply a skim coat of acrylic render to match surrounding finish on new board - not the whole wall - Painting is NOT included — I'll handle that separately While you're here I would like you to also seal the other corner (see last photo). Please include all materials in your quote. I am retired so flexible on timing. There is onsite parking.

Went above and beyond to complete task. Highly recommended.

Manual roller shutter window blind repair or removal.

$750

Richmond VIC 3121, Australia

7th Jan 2026

I have two manual winder operated window roller blinds that have both broken. One has seized up and the handle will not wind in either direction. The other one the shutters have disconnected. See photos attached. This is on the first story balcony of a Victroian terrace house. As both blinds are locked down, external access is required via a ladder from the front of the house. I either need to them repaired, or if this is too difficult or expensive, then I would like to have them both removed. This needs to be done by a professional and not a general handyman. Please provide details of your past experience in repairing manual roller blinds. I have set a notional budget of $750 but this is not a fixed priced job as it needs to be diagnosed first.

Youbert removed my very old manual roller shutters on my external windows. His communication was good, he was punctual, and he did to job efficiently with no fuss. Highly recommended.
