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.

Repair gyprock corner
$250
Southeast Outer Brisbane QLD, Australia
25th Oct 2025
Repair to gyprock and base plate including painting to match
Waterproof and render chimney
$1,000
Coorparoo QLD 4151, Australia
22nd Oct 2025
This project addresses ongoing water ingress through the mortar joints and sand-cement capping of a clay chimney stack. The structure shows signs of moisture penetration, likely due to age-related deterioration of the pointing and porous materials. To mitigate this, the chimney will be treated with a full surface render system, incorporating fibre-reinforced and cementitious components to seal the substrate, followed by a render suitable for painting.
Minor welding repairs to Rusted Awning

22nd Oct 2025
As per stated .. minor welding repairs to awning. To weld / join new flat bars to badly corroded sections
Plastic awning relocation
$120
Coorparoo QLD, Australia
21st Oct 2025
We put these plastic/perspex awnings up but had to shift one higher so it cleared the door. We'd like the bigger one to be the same height as the smaller one. It's probably about a 30 minute job. This might be a 2 or 3 person job due to the size - it's not heavy, it's just a bit awkward as the middle bracket isn't screwed in and can come apart if not supported. I can help to hold the middle up if this will be easier for you. Ideally the old holes will be filled and the slight gap from the top of the awning to the wall sealed.
