I need the mechanism on my blind replaced. I already have the correct replacement mechanism/part, so l just need someone to remove the existing one and install the new one. The blind itself is fine, it's just the mechanism that needs changing. Looking for someone experienced who can complete the job neatly and ensure the blind is working properly afterwards. lhave the replacement part ready to go. Please let me know your availability and price. Previously, I had someone come to look at it and they switched the two blind mechanisms, so the two blinds would need to be switched back and the new part added to replace the faulty mechanism.

Apartment Maintenance

Hi! Just need a couple things fixed in my apartment. -Toilet Seat Alignment (sorry sounds sillly) seat has gone sideways and it is a weird/odd attachment I can't seem to make it work (not sure what sort of tools you need to fix that). -Pulley cord in lounge room (I have had it fixed it a few times in the past due to me snapping it), it is functional and still work ergo not broken but the cord is super long and I would love to shorten it (probably snap it again in the future), I have more cord lengths so nothing will need to be purchased especially seen I want it shortened. It is up fairly high, I have chairs but no step ladder so might pay to potentially bring one or if you are super tall ever better :). I need this done before the 22nd of Feb. Available times all day Friday 17th & 19th. Available after 2pm Monday 20th & Tuesday 21st. In an apartment building, cant offer parking sorry. But close to train station and bus stops if that helps.
