We are looking for a skilled, reliable handyman or commercial maintenance professional to help us with a few office setup and repair tasks at our workspace in 2010 Surry Hills.

(Blinds will be on-site). >> TV Wall Mount: Securely mount a TV bracket onto the wall and hang the TV.

When: We need this started ASAP. Ideally, we would like someone to come out for the initial inspection visit early next week so we can get any needed flooring materials ordered immediately.
