Roller blind repair required (not gripping)

$70

Southbank VIC, Australia

23rd Jan 2026

One of our blinds doesn’t grip well as you roll it down. When you roll it down past the half way mark it begins to tumble down to the ground. So for example you can’t have it rolled 3/4 of the way down as it’ll just tumble all the way down. Hoping there’s someone that knows how to repair this rather than go for a replacement? I have attached pictures but I also have a video I can send that demonstrates this

Friendly and did a good job!

Install threaded garden tap

$300

Southbank VIC 3006, Australia

16th Jan 2026

Hi all I need a garden Tap installed at a venue in Southbank, Melbourne CBD. It’s in a tight space on our roof but accessible with a ladder or via the entranceway stairs if you’re good at yoga. We have all our water mains and utilities on the roof so you should have a few options. I have been told the yellow/brown plastic pipe circled in red is water. Trade is from 11am everyday, Tuesdays and Fridays would be ideal for the install as we have staff onsite from 7am. 9am everyday other day. Doesn’t need to be anything fancy or look pretty, it’s just so we have water access for gardening and cleaning that is hidden under our stairs and accessible to be turned on and off without getting onto the roof ourselves, as we plan on having a garden hose permanently attached to it.

Thanks Steven! Great to work with you out needs

Installation of 2 ceiling fans

$400

Southbank VIC 3006, Australia

4th Dec 2025

I need a licensed electrician* to instal 2 Fanco Gaia DC ceiling fans with dimmable lighting. I would need these installed such that they do not disturb the ceiling or make noise while working. I believe there is electrical cabling brought up to the ceiling cavity (an electrician working on other matters 2y ago was instructed to do so). Please provide an Airtasker price without bringing cables and in comments let me know how much would it be additionally if the additional cabling work is needed. Two bedrooms are 3m x 3m and 4.2m x 3.2m, if that matters. Photos show: 1) External view of the fan (from website) 2) Ceiling cavity 3) Installation manual [sorry for terrible order - it is not possible to arrange the sequence of photos on website] *The fan must be installed by a licensed electrician to comply with the manufacturer's warranty, hence I'd need a certificate. Carpark provided (for vehicles under 2.1 m high). [Budget is indicative only]

Ali installed two ceiling fans for me and did a stellar job. Highly recommended.
