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.

$120
Kooyong VIC, Australia
1st Jun 2026
Looking for a licensed electrician to supply and install a 4-point power outlet (4 GPO) in place of an existing single power point. Important: The existing power point is installed within a skirting board that is 100mm (10cm) high, so the replacement power point must be 100mm high or less to ensure it fits neatly within the skirting board and does not protrude above it. Scope of works: * Supply a white 4-GPO power point. * Remove existing single power point. * Install new 4-GPO power point. * Test all outlets and ensure everything is working correctly. * Dispose of old fitting if required. Notes: * No wall repairs, patching, plastering or painting will be required. * Photos of the existing outlet and the style of outlet I’m looking for are attached. * Looking for a neat, straightforward installation with minimal fuss. I’ve listed this job at $120, so please keep quotes realistic and close to budget where possible. If there are any genuine reasons the cost would be significantly higher, please explain what additional work would be required. Location: Kooyong Timing: flexible
Matt was absolutely brilliant - accommodating, efficient, trustworthy. Did the job quickly and on budget. Highly recommend.
Replace the batteries in motorised awning sensor
$75
Brighton East VIC, Australia
29th May 2026
Our motorised folding arm awning is not retracting as it should, and we have been advised it’s likely because the motion sensor batteries need replacing. We require someone with a ladder and tools to locate the awning’s motion sensor/s and replace the batteries (3x AAA batteries, provided). Instructions included in the photos section. Would prefer someone with experience in servicing motorised awnings in case other repairs may be necessary.
Dean was really friendly and knowledgeable, completing our job in record time! He was also great at communicating his ETA (due to traffic delays out of his control) which was much appreciated. Highly recommend his services!
