Install 2 power points & 1 weatherproof power point (Quotes welcomed)

$10

Footscray VIC, Australia

17th Apr 2025

Hi Airtaskers, I live in an apartment unit and would like to arrange the installation of two internal and one external weatherproof power point. Internal power points: These will be installed on a drywall. There is an existing power point on the opposite side of the wall, which should make wiring more straightforward. External power point: This can either be installed on the balcony drywall (which has a 1-gang switch directly opposite), or on the concrete wall where the outdoor air conditioning unit is located—whichever is more suitable for the installation. The power points I would like to use are the Clipsal Iconic Double Switched Power Point - 10A Horizontal Mount in Vivid White. Product link: https://www.clipsal.com/products/power-points-switches/clipsal-iconic/double-switch-power-point-horizontal-mount-250v-10a-3025?itemno=3025-VW Ideally, I’d like the installation to be completed by 30th April. Please let me know your availability and if you need any further details to provide a quote.

Attach cabinet to drywall

$150

I have 3 IKEA Ivar cabinets (80cm wide each) that I need help securely mounting to drywall in my kitchen. There are studs in the walls, but since I want to be able to put cookware into the cupboards an anchor in between studs might be necessary as well. The cabinets are fully assembled; photos are references for the finished look I’m after. Ideally you will have suitable screws and anchors already; I am happy to help during the installation process!

Sil installed these cabinets on my wall and I love how it turned out! He was punctual, friendly and provided all tools for the job. Highly recommended.
