Fantastic job. Highly recommend

Easyshed assembly

$200

Knoxfield VIC, Australia

15th Feb 2026

Easyshed assembly required

Failed to show up twice at nominated time. Only found out they weren’t coming after I initiated the messages. Third time lucky I guess. Shed was built with some imperfections and not as per directions in some steps (particularly for front panels) where screws were used instead of rivets (see photo) Also request an additional fee to be paid on top of what Airtasker hold onto, which is an interesting concept.

Quote - Driveway Drainage & Groundworks

$100

Belgrave VIC, Australia

22nd Jan 2026

*Listing is for Quote/Inspection Fee: $100* We are seeking an experienced contractor to inspect and quote for drainage and groundworks to stop water flowing underneath the house. The problem:
During rainfall, water runs down the driveway and makes its way underneath the house. This needs to be permanently rectified before re-stumping / re-levelling works can occur. We know the type of work required and are looking for someone to inspect the site and provide a quote to carry out the works. Scope of works likely to include: 
• Driveway drainage to intercept and redirect water away from the house
• Installation of surface and/or sub-surface drainage (e.g. spoon drains, agi drains, stormwater connection)
• Excavation using appropriate machinery (bobcat / mini excavator)
• Re-grading ground levels where required
• Reshaping or terracing the area running alongside the house to improve drainage Important:
• Solution must permanently stop water flowing underneath the house
• Works need to be practical and budget-conscious
• On-site inspection is required before providing a final quote
• We are not looking for full driveway replacement Ideal contractor:
• Experience in drainage and groundworks
• Plumbing background preferred for drainage works
• Own machinery (bobcat / mini excavator)
• Able to clearly quote for the agreed scope of works Photos can be provided prior to inspection, and site access is available.

Grant took the time to discuss with us in depth about the requirements of the scope of works. Gave us plenty of options to go with. Highly recommend.

Balcony Shed Assemble

$100

Ringwood VIC 3134, Australia

21st Nov 2025

Hi! I’m a mum with three kids and I’ve already assembled about half of this metal shed (see photos). The rest of the assembly is a bit too much for me to complete alone, and the instructions are quite confusing. I’m looking for someone experienced with sheds/DIY/flat-pack assembly who can: ✅ Finish the remaining installation ✅ Ensure the shed is assembled properly without bending or damaging any panels ✅ Work efficiently so I can get it completed soon ✅ Install it safely on my balcony (space is tight but manageable) Everything is here on-site — all panels, screws, parts, and tools available. Just need someone who knows what they’re doing to help wrap it up! If you have shed-assembly experience, even better. Please let me know your availability and your quote. Looking forward to getting this done quickly — thank you!

Very Polity and helpful man.

Remove outdoor Steel pergola

$200

Ringwood North VIC 3134, Australia

13th Oct 2025

Looking for someone to remove 2.5m x 2.5m x 2m high outdoor steel free standing awning/ covering, and another timber one. Please see photos. It is made of small square metal beams and timber. There are no walls on the sides. The timber one has posts embedded into the ground. Looking for someone to remove it only, and help move items to front of house. We will dispose of the material. Flexible with dates but looking to do it sooner rather than later.

10-stars all around! Thank you very much, Nelson. Great airtasker, did exactly what I wanted with the removal of 2 pergolas and disposing of the material at an affordable price. He was punctual and has the ability to get the work done. I will highly recommend him - and will use again. He is the Airtasker you are looking for!
