Awning window realign/hinge fix
$150
Honestly I would have given Ben a 1 star but he came back quite quickly to fix a few things so gave him 4 but still not impressed. For the price paid, it was very rushed. First off it was very difficult to communicate, his English was quite broken but I left him with the measurement plans of the kitchen, & laundry so he knew what was going to need to be plastered to paint and what needs to be plastered for tiles. I was shocked when I came back and the entire place was white, full of dust and floorboards were absolutely covered. No sheet, no plastic, and no care taken. My uncle who is polishing the floors and has been doing so for 30 years was appalled as was my builder friend. I spent hours sweeping, vacuuming, and cleaning up the next day after Ben. The tile guy came and said it was a poor job even after ben came back to smooth it out. Wouldn't recommend Ben unless you have an easy job with a few holes that need some patching.

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.

I’ve removed a built-in bookshelf from my living room, which has exposed internal framing strips and left some damaged plasterboard sections. I’m looking for an experienced plasterer to restore the wall to a clean, smooth, paint-ready finish. It’s just one wall only — approximately a little over 3 metres wide and 1.5 metres high. Multiple photos are attached but all of the same wall. Scope of Work: Patch and re-plaster damaged areas Replace or re-sheet any sections if needed (one area may require a new piece of plasterboard) Sand and finish the wall so it’s ready for painting Timing (Important): This must be done tomorrow — Thursday 11th, anytime in the afternoon. No flexibility outside this time. Notes: Flooring is being installed tomorrow morning Easy access, ground floor Photos attached All materials must be supplied by you — I don’t have any materials on site Please include in your quote: Labour cost Confirmation that all materials are included Your availability for Thursday afternoon only
Perfect job. The wall came out super clean and professionally finished — exactly what I wanted and more. He was on time, easy to deal with, and really knew what he was doing. Highly recommend for any plastering work.
