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.

Looking for someone experienced to supply and install a canopy/awning over my front entrance in Mermaid Waters. I’m after a simple, modern design, ideally black or charcoal with a clear or lightly tinted polycarbonate roof, to suit the existing house. The main purpose is to protect the front door and new smart lock/doorbell from direct rain and weather. Happy with an affordable prefabricated canopy from Bunnings or similar if suitable.

Task to include: • Supply of suitable canopy/awning • All required brackets, fixings and materials • Secure installation above the front door • Appropriate sealing/weatherproofing around fixings • Suitable fixing method for the existing exterior wall • Clean-up after installation Budget is around $500 all inclusive, but I’m open to reasonable offers depending on the product recommended and installation requirements. Installation needs to be suitable for an exposed Gold Coast entrance, including appropriate structural fixings for the existing wall and proper weather sealing. The canopy needs to withstand heavy rain and typical summer storm conditions. Please advise before installation if you don't consider the supplied fixings appropriate. Please let me know what canopy you would recommend/supply, total price including installation, and your earliest availability. Photos of the entrance are attached.
