Install IKEA double curtain rods & curtains – 2 windows

Job includes: • Install brackets securely into the wall for both windows • Assemble, install and level 2 × double curtain rod setups • Existing roller blinds to remain in place and operational • Ensure rods and curtains clear the existing roller blinds • Hang supplied rod-pocket curtains directly onto the rods — no rings or hooks required • No hemming or curtain alterations required • Please bring your own drill, ladder, masonry drill bits, appropriate plugs/anchors/fixings and all other installation tools required Wall fixings: This is an 1890s terrace, so the walls may be solid masonry/brick with older plaster.

Paint and repair drill holes in wall

$250

Erskineville NSW 2043, Australia

22nd Aug 2026

Moving out of a rental and need a small wall repair completed professionally. There are several holes in 2 different areas from a TV wall mount and a wifi access point on a rendered internal wall & ceiling. I had already filled the holes with standard plaster/filler before learning that the wall is rendered, so I’d like someone experienced to inspect the repair and redo/remove the existing filler if required. A few of the original wall plugs were too deep to remove and have been filled over, so these should also be dealt with properly if necessary. Scope: - Inspect existing filled TV mount holes - Remove/rework existing filler if unsuitable - Properly repair holes using material suitable for a rendered wall - Sand/finish so the repair blends into the existing wall - Apply appropriate undercoat/primer - Touch up/repaint repaired area - Paint colour is Dulux Polar White Quarter – Matt (exact paint details available) There is also one small ceiling hole from an Ethernet cable that I'd ideally like patched and painted at the same time. The property is only around a year old, so I’m looking for someone who can achieve a clean, professional finish rather than just a basic patch job. Please only offer if you have experience with rendered wall repairs and painting.

Great job well done. Will hire again
