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.

Small re-plastering job. Have taken one line of tiles from the top of our kitchen splash back and left the rest. It is about 3 metres wide and 10 cms high. Quite a little job but neither of us are skilled enough to then make sure the new plaster fades evenly into the plaster above it.

I am looking to have someone render and square up three brick retaining walls in the backyard. The first two pictures are the ‘priority’ walls. The third is one I’d like done too… depending on cost. The three last pictures are the kind of straight, square, white, minimalist finish I am after :) I don’t have heaps of money… I am separated and doing my best to afford things as I can along the way… obviously I am happy to pay for materials (!) and negotiate the cost of completing the job upfront. I don’t want to pay by the hour as this has caused me problems before :(

Had a plasterer come in and do some work a few years back we're now experiencing the cornice (the things that join the walls and roof lmao) falling down in one of the bedrooms. Wanting to have it repaired ASAP. Only 2 sides have come down, one has snapped and will most likely need replacing but again, I'm no plasterer. Price is just so I could post, please leave quotes. I have knauf patching plaster, Cornice adhesive & tape here but not replacement plaster corners. (Long things) So please include those in the pricing. If you prefer your own products that's also no hassle ☺️ Also happy to chat 'off the books' pricing.
