Change balustrade - for trained & qualified carpenters only
$800
Balmain NSW, Australia
9th Apr 2026
1) Come in person to assess the situation properly, or just ask for additional photos if enough. 2) Agree on the exact specs of parts to be used for the job. I can then source them. 3) Do the job: replace the existing handrails, banisters and bottom rails with the new ones. The load-bearing posts are not getting replaced. Total length of handrail to replace: about 5m - same length for the bottom rail.
Thanks Steve, you nailed it and found a better solution than the one I had considered - Cheers !
Reset outdoor awning Somfy

Luxaflex Somfy outdoor awning not responsive to remote. Need help with resetting the motor
Mini awning/pergola off side of house to cover bikes
$500
Balmain NSW, Australia
21st Jan 2026
I would like someone to construct a small awning / pergola down the narrow side of my house to store my bikes out of the rain. The structure would need to attach to the side of the house. The long side of the awning would be attaching to a modern Hardie plank weatherboard clad wall, whereas the short side would need to attach to double brick. In the diagram below, the res depicts the structure I'm requesting to be built. Dimensions would be 5.2m by 0.9m. It would need to attach to the house at about 1.9m above the ground with a gentle slope so the rain could run off (no need for a gutter). So likely to need brackets and some support frames to then hold up something like a Suntuf polycarbonate clear plastic roofing. Please see photos of the area in question and aerial sketch. I would be keen for someone to inspect the site so we can discuss best design & materials before purchasing the materials. The main discussion points is probably whether it would require a support post at the near end. Im happy to either purchased myself or you can, but either way I will fund the materials so please don't include those in your quote.
Luke did a great job constructing an awning/small pergola down the side of my house. Great job, good communication and punctual & efficient.

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.

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 !
