What does a telephone engineer service include?

Telephone engineers can do more than just install a new phone line in your office or home - they can help you troubleshoot connection problems with your broadband or fax lines, help improve the reception you get on these devices, and more. While the specifics can vary from Tasker to Tasker, here’s what you can expect when you request a telephone engineer service on Airtasker:

Phone line and socket installation

Got a new home or office and need your phone lines installed quickly? We can find a Tasker to do this for you! This service is also ideal for those who’d like a second phone line installation or those who want it set up in a particular room or area. Telephone engineers can also reposition or install a new socket in an area that’s easier for you to reach. 

No need to worry about purchasing any equipment or tools for this - your specialist arrives with all these in their kit! Just provide the phone line, point to where you’d like it set up, and they’ll hop to it.

Phone troubleshooting and repair

If you’ve been experiencing problems with your telephone, like cordless phones with receivers that are too far away, or previous repairs that were done poorly, a Tasker can help sort things out. Detail your phone’s issues in the task post, so prospective telephone engineers will know what equipment to bring. 

Then, they’ll assess your phone units, the electrical outlets, DSL filter, and the connector box. Once they find the problem, they’ll do the necessary repair or replacement, test the phone, and be on their way.

Internet connection installation and troubleshooting

Phone lines are pretty much linked to your internet connection, so you’ll need to consult a telephone engineer if you’re experiencing slow internet speeds or want to set up a new computer. Taskers can check your cables and phone line extension. If necessary, they can set up a socket closer to your workstation to improve your broadband or wireless connection.

Still, got IT troubles after troubleshooting with your telephone engineer? It might be time to upgrade your computer.

Completing your home or office phone line set-up

Your office or home workstation may need more than just a working phone line and an internet connection - you might also need to install a fax machine, hide unsightly cables, or put in a Sky TV installation! The good news is that our telephone engineers are usually equipped to handle these kinds of tasks, too. 

And if phone line connections are just the start of your office to-do list, we can also help you with chores like assembling furniture or work stations. With Airtasker, you can get your new workplace set up in no time at all!

Need a phone line relocated through door frame

$125

Darlington NSW, Australia

25th Sep 2023

I’m getting some screen doors installed on our upstairs balcony, but the phone line currently runs through the bottom of the door sill and will block the screen door from opening and closing properly so I need it relocated out of the way. I think it could be sunk lower into the sill so it is out of the way. Need someone to think through and implement this. Thanks. - Due date: Flexible

Great work, good communication, highly recommended

Phone line testing

Potts Point NSW, Australia

26th Mar 2021

Hi there. I've moved into a new apartment and haven't been able to get the internet up and running. From speaking with my ISP, it looks to me like it's an issue between the NBN box in the basement and my apartment. I need a qualified technician to come in and help determine (A) Which of the phone ports in my apartment are live and (B) That the port is definitely connected correctly through to the incoming NBN connection and therefore help me to determine if this is a fault that's internal or extarnal to the building. Thanks.

Very thorough!

Rewire internal phone line from boundary point

$200

Redfern NSW 2016, Australia

21st Aug 2020

I live in a terrace in Redfern. I need to have some internal phone line wiring repaired or replaced. I've been having issues with my modem disconnecting from the internet. The problems have been getting worse over the past six months. The NBN technicians have tested the connection up to the network boundary point and said that they don't see an issue. I’m looking for someone to rewire from the Telstra put just outside the house through to inside the house. Probably 10-20 meters of wiring, all up.

Prompt service and thorough. Would've given five stars, except he left some sawdust in the area he was working.

Remove a phone line splitter

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

23rd May 2020

Hi, I have moved into an apartment and when I connected by NBN internet connection I am not getting the speeds I am paying for. It is suspected that the reason is due to the phone line being split by a splitter. I'd like it to be wired in a way that only one port is active. I am located in Ultimo and available during the day. Thanks

Run phone line from Nbn box to inside terrace

$60

Chippendale NSW, Australia

29th Feb 2020

The previous tenants ripped out the connection from the Nbn box to the telephone. I’m not sure how it should be connected and if what we have in the Nbn box is what is required. Anyway I need someone to make it work so I can plug my Nbn modem in. It doesnt seem that inside has a phone socket either so one may need to be installed. There is some telephone wires which I am unsure are connected but the wall plug has been ripped out as well.
