Need to repair the blind

Install 3 x DC ceiling fans + light kits, replace 3 wall switches

$700

Footscray VIC 3011, Australia

31st Aug 2026

Licensed A-grade electrician needed to install 3 x FanForce Revo DC ceiling fans with LED light kits in a double-storey home in Footscray. Fans and light kits are already on site. I need labour plus supply of switch mechs/plates. These are DC fans with no wall control (remote and Wi-Fi app only). Every existing rotary fan speed controller/dimmer must be changed to a plain on/off isolation switch. 1. Living room (ground floor), 48" fan. Straight swap for an existing 4-blade AC fan on a short downrod, flat ceiling. 2. Study/office (ground floor), 36" fan. Replaces a decorative glass pendant on a rotary dimmer. I've seen older photos of this room show a fan installed here at some point, but please do not assume the existing fixing is fan-rated. There is no roof space above this ceiling (bedrooms above), so it can't be reached from above. The old pendant is being binned. 3. Bedroom (first floor), 36" fan. Replaces an existing 3-blade AC fan, flat ceiling, roof space above with manhole access. The wall controller is broken and the plate can't be screwed back on (see photo). Whatever this needs to be made good, please include it. Also: - Test each fan before leaving (speeds, reverse, light, dimming). - Flag anything needing rectification and quote it separately. - No rubbish removal needed, just stack it in one corner. - Vic A-grade licence/REC, please include your number in your offer, and a Certificate of Electrical Safety on completion. - Bring your own ladder, tools and switch mechs/plates. Product: FanForce Revo, 2 x 36" (FF10431-WH) and 1 x 48", white, each with the 24W LED light kit. Manual: https://www.fanforceaustralia.com.au/s/FANFORCE-REVO-INSTRUCTION-MANUAL-FINAL.pdf Install video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhJ9oPcVZAE Photos attached. Budget is for the straightforward work; if the study/office point needs new fan-rated fixing, say so in your offer.

Treadmill Maintenance (zero faults)

$140

Footscray VIC 3011, Australia

11th Jul 2025

This is a Sole F85 treadmill. There is nothing wrong with it (as far as I know). It's sort of been rotting in my living room and I'd like to start using it. In fact my only complaint would be that it's at a slight angle when walking when it should be 0 degrees incline. Aim is the following: 1)Lubricate the thing and kindly show me how to do it properly too. Ideally you have some lubricant please. 2)Help me fix the angle of the treadmill, if in fact it has an angle issue. I hope the fix for this is very quick. 3)General servicing. I want to actually use it regularly now and I figure it could use a bit of care before I start.
