Whether you need assistance with installing newly bought homeware or fixing old ones to avoid purchasing replacements, you can hire a handyman to cover for you. Have them work on installing curtain rods and blinds, fitting the kitchen sink, setting up pet doors, and even wallpapering. If a home security system is what you need installed, you can book a separate service to make this happen.

Reservoir VIC 3073, Australia

My upstairs bedroom roller shutter doesn’t work thanks to tenants switching it on while the windows were still wound out causing the motor to jam up.

Photos are attached for your reference. Property is located in Reservoir 3073, walking distance from Reservoir train station.

Handyman Wanted: Wall Panel Installation + Small Jobs

$800

Research VIC 3095, Australia

27th Sep 2026

Handyman Wanted: Wall Panel Installation + Small Jobs I have one main job and a few smaller jobs I’d like completed. Main job: Installation of wall panels on four walls I have purchased decorative wall panels from Bunnings and am looking for someone experienced to install them on one feature wall in each of four rooms. Approximate wall measurements: 1. Office: 2.8m × 2.4m 2. Kids’ bedroom: 3.4m × 2.4m 3. Kids’ bedroom: 3.4m × 2.4m 4. Lounge room: 4.0m × 2.4m I already have all of the wall panels ready to go. The job includes removing anything necessary from the existing walls (the kids’ room have their names in LED), accurately measuring and cutting the panels, and securely fixing them to the walls. I would like them screwed into the wall studs so they can be easily removed later if needed. I have attached photos of each wall and photos of the panels from Bunnings. Other small jobs: I also have a speaker cavity and an old heater cavity that we no longer use. I would like both filled/plastered so I can paint over them. There is also a leaking tap in our downstairs rumpus room that needs repairing. I understand these jobs require slightly different skills, so please just mention in your bid if you can complete the wall panels but not some of the smaller jobs. Located in Research (Eltham area), VIC 3095. I am generally home Thursdays, Fridays and weekends.

Ryan was an absolute machine! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Communication before the job was excellent, he arrived on time and worked tirelessly all day until everything was perfect. He even stayed back to make sure everything was spotless before leaving (which I did offer to do 😆). His attention to detail and work ethic were outstanding. Honestly, I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
