Garage door repair

$100

Belconnen ACT, Australia

20th Sep 2025

My automatic garage door not opens fully up and not close properly. When pressing the close button on the remote, the door starts rolling down but then the roller wheel misaligns when coming down and sit outside the track. It looks like the issue is coming from the left corner roller area, which may be due to misaligned. The corner panel also appears slightly misshaped, likely causing the door to bind. Please see the attached photo for reference. Work required: Inspect the corner roller and alignment. Adjust or replace the roller if necessary. Check and realign the corner panel. Ensure smooth and safe operation of the door after repair.

Very good and experienced Handyman I've ever worked with. I will hughly recommend Jass. Thanks.

$350

Griffith ACT, Australia

11th May 2025

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.
