Handyman needed Sunday for several small jobs
$400
Campbell ACT 2612, Australia
18th Sep 2026
I’m looking for an experienced handyman to help with several jobs following a house move. I would prefer to have the work completed tomorrow, Sunday. The work will be across two locations, Campbell and Yarralumla, so you will need to be able to travel between both. The jobs include: - Replacing the mesh in two standard-sized flyscreen doors - Hanging one large, heavy painting, including drilling into masonry and installing a suitable heavy-duty fixing - Installing angle brackets and chicken wire around a small courtyard to prevent a dog from escaping - Cutting, shaping and securely wiring the chicken wire into place I expect there will be approximately four hours of work. I have all the required equipment and materials. However, you are welcome to bring your own tools if you prefer working with them. Experience completing similar handyman work is preferred.

Extract stuck washer-dryer combo & reattach/repair cabinet hinges
$200
Lyneham ACT 2602, Australia
17th Sep 2026
Hi guys, I need an experienced handyman to help fix a situation left behind by removalists in my apartment laundry. This is for an end-of-lease inspection, so care and a professional standard are required. 1. Extract and Reset Washer-Dryer Combo (Main Task): The removalists tried to pull the washer-dryer combo out but failed, and now the machine is completely wedged and stuck out of its cavity. It is a very tight fit. I need someone who knows how to safely pull the heavy machine completely out without damaging the floor, walls, or the pipes behind it, and then carefully push it back in once the door is fixed. 2. Reattach/repair Cabinet Door Hinges: Because the machine was forced, the cabinet door hinges popped open/separated. A friend has advised that the wood itself is likely not broken, and the hinges just need to be clicked/re-aligned back together. However, to do this, the washing machine must be fully pulled out first to give you enough space to reattach them.
Great service! He did the job very carefully and finished it really quickly. Highly recommended!

Roller blinds in the spare room, fell tonight and I'd like someone to put the blinds back in its place. You will need a ladder. The last person I got to come and do this for me, did a dodgy job and the blinds chain were actually stuck so I will need you took look at that for me as well. I found out after he had long left and there were dirty finger prints on the blinds so please ensure you have clean hands before doing the fixtures. Thank you.
Jeff went above and beyond to reinstall my blinds for me. I'm extremely grateful for Jeff's efforts. Being clueless to these sprt of things, I was really thankful that Jeff took on this task and even replaced the old blind chains for me and now it rolls incredibly smooth!! Thank you so much Jeff!! Would highly recommend!! 🌟 10/10!

I have an irrigation system that runs off two taps. One in the front yard and one in the backyard. The system in backyard has six stations running from an old upright garden tap. The line splits into six lines and solenoids. The manifold line is split and needs replacing. I would like to take the opportunity to reconfigure the inlet, removing the tap and creating a better manifold connection. It is currently very difficult to conduct maintenance like solenoid replacement, etc. The system runs off an automatic wi-fi timer that works very well.
Terrific tradesman.
