What does a local tradesman do?
Tradesmen (and tradeswomen!) can help you tackle the tasks that need the expertise, tools, and knowledge that only a qualified local tradie can give. Whether you need a trade to help with home repairs or construction, you can find local tradesmen to help with tasks like:
Electrical & plumbing tradies
When you hire a tradie to work with electricity, gas, or water, they’ll need special qualifications, training, and equipment to keep you and your house safe from fires, flooding, and property damage. You’d need to hire an electrician to install your new light fittings or electrical equipment, like ovens. And you’d need a plumbing tradie to help with plumbing tasks, like fitting new taps and pipes, or gas plumbing tasks like installing or repairing heaters and stoves. Your tradie will start by asking questions about the issues you’re having, then they’ll do a physical inspection of the area to assess the work needed. They’ll use their specialist tools and equipment to repair, install, or replace parts to get everything working properly.
Carpentry & cabinet making tradies
Tradesmen are usually qualified professionals, so they’re ideally suited to tasks that need a higher skill level than a handyman. Carpenters and cabinet makers are in high demand for installing new cabinets, custom-making furniture and installing built-in robes and cupboards. They’ll measure your space to ensure the furniture and built-ins fit perfectly and match your existing decor. Then they’ll work with a range of equipment and tools (onsite or offsite) to cut and shape the wood, then assemble any parts to create your finished product.
Home exterior work tradies
Tradesmen can help provide a professional finish to your exterior building tasks. For example, installing or repairing balustrades. Your professional tradesmen will measure, fit and install glass, metal, or wood balustrades to make your balcony area or stairs safe while matching the design of your home. Once they’ve established a safe work zone, they’ll remove the old balustrades before installing the new parts. Another popular exterior task is installing or upgrading awnings. Your tradie can pull down old, broken, or faded awnings and help you choose a new awning to match your house and surroundings. Then they’ll carefully install the new awning so that it is safe and secure.
Concrete repairs & resurfacing tradies
When concrete is damaged, it can create trip hazards, and let in water, dirt and other pests, which can cause further damage. Concrete resurfacing can help repair damage and give your property an instant update with coloured concrete overlays and/or designs. Your tradie will first assess the damage, then repair or replace any broken areas. Then they may clean the existing area with high-pressure hoses or chemicals. Once the area is clean and prepared, they’ll mix up a thin, concrete-based surface compound that will cover the area.

Electrician: Install outdoor power points & repair 2 existing

Hawthorn East VIC 3123, Australia

Looking for a licensed electrician to complete the following work at a residential property: 1. Repair an outdoor power point: There are two power points side by side in the front garden.

Install two new outdoor power points, possibly three: These locations are close to existing power points inside the house. Please quote for two installations, with the cost of a third as an optional extra. Ready to hire. Please provide your availability and indicate what your quote includes, including labour and materials. Thanks!

Seeking gas safety certificate
$175
Kew VIC, Australia
27th May 2024
Gas safety checks have been done and all checks passed. Appliances: gas hot water and cooktop. Central heating also exists but not operational. It appears that the plumber who conducted the tests is not licensed by VBA. The VBA's website says: "[the person is] not currently licensed or registered with the Victorian Building Authority". The main metre was also looked at (and repaired) by Multinet for a tiny leak less thatn a month ago. So the checks should be completed by a competent plumber in a under 15 minutes :) Obviously I am looking for a plumber who is licensed to do gas safety checks and issue the certificate.
Really appreciate the work Marius has performed. Great attention to details. Recommend him for gas appliances checks any time.
