Need extra privacy? You can also have a handyman screen on your porch to create a more secluded and comfortable outdoor space.

Handyman Needed – 4 Small Kitchen & Wall Mount Repairs

$300

Annandale NSW 2038, Australia

11th Oct 2026

Looking for a reliable handyman to complete four straightforward jobs around the home. 1. Kitchen pull-out bin: Install an existing pull-out kitchen bin and attach it to the cabinet door. All components are supplied. 2. Dishwasher timber panels: Secure the already cut and fitted timber panels above and below the dishwasher using small brackets. The main challenge is accessing the fixing points. This may require temporarily sliding the dishwasher out and repositioning it, or using an extended drill/screwdriver attachment to access the area without moving it. 3. Dyson wall holder: Reinstall a Dyson vacuum charging dock that has pulled out of a hollow Gyprock wall. Requires suitable heavy-duty plasterboard fixings. 4. Kitchen cabinet covering:* Glue back a section of decorative laminate/veneer that has separated from the cabinetry above the cooktop. All parts and materials have already been purchased, including brackets, screws and adhesive. Just need someone with the right tools and experience to complete the work neatly. Nothing needs to be manufactured or custom-cut. These are relatively small jobs. Located in Annandale, NSW.

Highly recommend Michael! He was professional, efficient, polite and incredibly helpful. He quickly identified and resolved an issue we’d been unable to fix ourselves, going above and beyond to get the job done properly. He also left everything exceptionally clean and tidy.
