Ceiling water leak repair
$5
South Melbourne, Victoria
11th Jun 2025
Internal water leak on ceiling from. Inspect. Stop leak internally and on roof. Tin roof. 100 year old house. We have received a quote which is unclear for the following: Quote we received from someone else 👇 Roofing works - Cut back all overhanging bamboo and clean out box gutters either side of glass roof. - Cut back overhanging plants and clean quad guttering - Replace box gutter causing water ingress issues. - Install rainhead with overflow - Paint any surface rust with Liquid flash to extend life of roof/flashings. - Remove all rubbish from site and leave site tidy. Description We just need the leak stopped and don’t need to cut or remove the neighbors plants and we don’t have evidence that box gutter needs replacing. Let me know your thoughts and see attached photos of internal leak. (Property is tenanted and so you will need to gain access from the agent)

Picture / Mirror Hanging handy man
$200
South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia
23rd Jan 2025
Hi, I was after a handy man to come and hang 4 framed pictures and 1 canvas print on various plasterboard walls in my house along with a wall hung mirror (50cm x 135cm) and coat hook. None of the pictures are of any value and should be straight forward. It is a project I don't want to attempt myself and the sizes of each item vary (please refer to pics). I also, don't have any tools or wall hooks. But I can buy wall hooks if need be. I work from home and can be flexible. Thanks Mark


Hamish was a very nice guy and did everything I asked. Would definitely hire again.

A couple of bolts on our food processor have come loose, I’m not able to get there and the tools aren’t there. They bolts are easily accessible from the outside and a hex is on the other side of the bolt which will need to be held so it doesn’t spin while tightening. I need this job done asap please, it’s the quickest $50.00 you’re likely to make. Literally a 2 minute job. - Due date: Needs to be done on Thursday, 1 December 2022

Thanks so much for coming out to our cafe Marc. We were in a tight spot with being half way through food processing. Marc was able to come on very short notice fortunately and got us back up and running in no time. Friendly, fast and a great service. We hope to have you back. Thanks again Marc
