Repair plaster and install hooks
$500
South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia
9th Aug 2025
We have had a laundry drying rack attached to our laundry wall which was probably not attached to a strong enough point on one side. (Photo below) We would need the plaster repaired and if there is a stronger way to instal to have the rack re attached (there is some air conditioning wiring behind the wall so may not be possible to do this but we’d like your view!). Also we have some hooks to be installed in a separate wall which does have some blocking behind it and should be more solid. And a small acrylic shelf with custom holes attached in our pantry. If you think we need a more specialist plasterer for the first job let us know but hope this is a job you could do! Finally we have a cupboard in my son’s bedroom where it would be useful to have one or two additional shelves (just melamine or something similar) and wondering if you could advise on how to do this. Thankyou !!


Very careful, helpful and a high standard of work. Daniel did a range of tasks and did everything really well. Thankyou!

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
