Jeremy quite literally saved our as*es! He was professional from the first message/ phone call. He was organised, asked the right questions, made us feel comfortable and outlined exactly what he would be doing and how. He was punctual and worked with us to complete our task. Our task was not an easy one!! We had 2 heavy stone benches we needed dismantled with care so they didn’t break and he did that for us. He was transparent with us from the start. It took a lot of patience, he knew exactly what he was doing, very savvy and a man of knowledge in his field. He not only dismantled it with care, he helped us lift it off, take it down the steep stairs and drive way and he moved it with his van to another location. Jeremy was super positive, kind and helpful. We literally couldn’t have done this without him! We will definitely be reaching out to him again for future jobs. Thanks a lot Jeremy :-) Sarah

What do console repair services include?

The game console repair service includes all the tasks necessary to make a non-working or malfunctioning game console work as intended. To repair popular consoles like the PS4, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch, your console repairman can do troubleshooting followed by the needed repairs. After completing the repairs, they can test the system to ensure the console is back to its original working order. 

Troubleshooting the problem 

Your console repair specialist begins by inspecting the different functions and components of your gaming console. They may also check each game disc for dirt or scratches if reading or loading errors occur. Your specialist inspects the cables, controllers, connection ports for issues. The monitor or TV and the Wi-Fi are checked as appropriate for any video, audio or connectivity problems. Once the problem is found, your console repair specialist works on the necessary fixes.  

Checking connections

Your console repairman checks all the connections that lead to and from the gaming console. This includes the HDMI cables, the HDMI ports on both the TV or monitor and the console, the power plugs and the controller ports. Your specialist can also check your internet for connectivity problems and do the appropriate fixes. 

Cleaning the internal parts

Defective gaming consoles can trace some of their problems to issues with heat management. The cooling fan usually causes this, along with the heat sink and other internal parts choked with dirt and debris. 

Your console repair specialist disconnects the console, shuts off the power and opens your game console’s case. They then clean the fan, heat sink, hard disk if any, and other parts with a non-static brush or blast from a can of compressed air. The case is reassembled once all the cleaning is done.

Rewiring the console and controllers

Some issues on your gaming console or its parts may be due to wires that have snapped or got cut from excessive bending. Your console repair specialist can check the wires on the controllers, HDMI cable or other connecting cables, and the power cable. Should any cut wires be discovered, your specialist can install new wires and splice or solder new connections.  

Replacing the non-working components

Any parts that no longer work on your consoles, such as the cooling fan on your PS4 or Xbox or the PS4 hard disk can be replaced if necessary. Note that your specialist may not have the replacement parts ready, so you must purchase these. Some specialists may offer to go to the console repair store to get these parts for you for a small additional fee.  

Testing the game console after repair

After your hired repair specialist has applied the fixes, they can test the console. They can check that the game loads up and works, both controllers function and respond as they should, and the video, audio and internet connectivity work as expected. If any issues arise, your repair specialist repeats the diagnostic and repair process until the console works without any problems.

Plumber to supply and install laundry taps

$500

Ascot Vale VIC 3032, Australia

18th May 2026

We have some capped off pipes and waste next to our toilet where we used to have a bidet. Looking to get a quote from a qualified plumber on installing laundry taps for the capped off copper pipes and any additional work required for the wastage to allow washing machine run off (either in the wastage where the bidet was or into the trap of the sink also in the water closet. There is low clearance between the pipes and ground - I will need guidance from someone qualified on what standards need to be met for laundry taps. I would prefer quote to be inclusive of supply of laundry taps, but if you need me to supply, let me know. I don’t care what they look like. Please if you provide a quote can you include the work included/provided so I have understanding of the effort involved!

Thanks Brayden! Happy w the work and he is also very polite, considered and communicative.

Looking for a handyman/carpenter to supply and install wardrobe hanging rails in a rental property.
