Replace damaged post, cladding, gyprock. Repair leak.
$200
Balmain, New South Wales
6th Aug 2025
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. We can organise the gyprock separately if necessary. We discovered the problem when we replaced the concertina doors. Post can be replaced without removing the doors. Essential to find the source of the leak and rectify it. Price is negotiable.

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 !

I need a professional to install gyprock/plasterboard to cover an exposed section of a wall in my home. The area needing repair is shown in the attached photos.

I am looking for someone experienced in plastering or wall repairs who can complete the job efficiently and to a high standard. Requirements: - Must have experience in installing gyprock/plasterboard. - Must have your own tools and equipment. - Please provide an estimate of how long the job will take. - Budget: Please provide your quote including labor and materials.
