Install 2 Roller Blind Chain Safety Tensioners (5-minute job)

$50

Cleveland QLD 4163, Australia

1st Jul 2026

I did a rollerbilnd job on a commercial project. I accidentally forgot to install the mandatory chain safety tensioners on 2 roller blinds before leaving site. Rather than driving back for such a small job, I'm looking for someone local to help. The job is very straightforward and should take less than 5 minutes for anyone with basic handyman experience. Requirements: Supply 2 roller blind chain safety tensioners / blind cord guides (available from Bunnings). Install them onto the wall using either: screws (preferred), or quality double-sided tape if more suitable. Clip the blind chains into the guides so they are correctly tensioned. This is a commercial site with easy access during business hours. I'll upload a photo of the required part so there's no confusion.

Interior carpentry, plastering and rendering work

$10

Sheldon QLD, Australia

3rd May 2026

Our living room and dining room have a mismatch of wall surfaces, heights etc, and we want to tidy this all up by some reframing, and then some plastering as well. This is going to be easiest if you come out and quote, but I have provided some photos. There are 6 walls that we're talking about. 1) A large facebrick wall that needs some framing to hang a sliding barn door on it, and then plastering over the facebrick wall. Aircon needs to be taken down and then hang back up etc. 2) 3 walls that have rough render on then, we want this replaced with smooth render 3) 1 dry wall we need built up to ceiling height and then plastered on both sides 4) 1 dry wall with a wooden top frame that we want removed (so the wall is staying, the 1970s style wood frame is going) and plastering redone. Ignore the budget. We have no idea what to expect, but this silly app makes you set a budget

Thanks for the assistance

I have noted gaps in the lead flashing, which likely allows wind-driven rainwater to enter the ceiling cavity (this happened during the recent cyclone (few months back) This is a pre-existing maintenance issue and I need fix it.
