Job is to install a new chandelier on the ceiling rose in entry hallway.

Assembly/erection of a modular IKEA shelving unit

$160

Fitzroy VIC, Australia

27th Aug 2025

Assemble/erect an IKEA modular shelving system against a wall using a mix of studs and wall plugs/anchors for plasterboard. ONLY VERTICAL BEAMS NECESSARY TO BE INSTALLED The shelving itself is quite heavy and needs to be safe to withstand extra weight on top. It’s likely only one stud will be accessible due to the standardised 60cm width of the shelves. A stud finder that can detect electrical wires will be essential. Bring your own equipment, ideally including extra wall plugs/plasterboard anchors. Ideally set up sooner than later, however has to coincide with when I am home.

Mohsen was very punctual, he came within 2 hours of request, installed our tricky shelves with great precision and they look exactly as we wanted.

I’m after a skilled tiler to complete a small-format tiling job on a heritage fireplace hearth in my Edwardian home in Fitzroy.
