The bottom third of the post is badly damaged but the whole post will need to be replaced along with the external cladding and the internal gyprock.

Balustrade fixed to look like an internal balustrade. 🤦🏻♀️.
$50
Balmain, New South Wales
12th May 2025
Hello ! Looking for someone to cover the existing balustrade or replace it to look like this one. We had this installed in November last year and it is so ugly and unfinished. I have a reference of what we have and what we are thinking we need.


It’s obvious to see why Ben and Sidney have so many five star reviews. I am now going to have them do a whole scope of work for us. Their work ethic, communication, taste and kindness is unmatched and I’ve been using this service for a very long time now. So grateful to have found them. Run, don’t walk !
