Plaster repair: Small chip on wall corner
$120
Taylor ACT, Australia
25th Apr 2026
I am looking for someone to help repair a small plaster chip on a wall corner, which is roughly the size of a 20-cent piece. As the metal corner bead is slightly exposed, the repair will require appropriate filling and sanding to ensure a smooth, durable finish that sits flush with the wall. Please let me know your availability to take this on, and clarify if you will be bringing your own materials and tools or if there is anything specific you need me to provide. I would also appreciate it if you could confirm your experience with patching and whether you are able to assist with matching the paint finish to the existing wall. Colour matching does not need to be perfect.

Handyman needed for 2 simple indoor tasks (Heater mount & window seal)
$100
Spence, Australian Capital Territory
11th Apr 2026
Hi there, ​I am currently recovering from an injury and am unable to use one of my hands, so I need a reliable handyman to assist with two simple jobs around the apartment before the colder weather sets in. ​The Tasks: ​Window Insulation: Apply an EPDM sponge to the right vertical side of a window sill to act as temporary weather insulation, as the window is stuck a little bit open and I'll hire a handyman to fix it properly later. You don't need to do the whole sill, just that one side. Note: I already have the EPDM sponge ready to go, and it has an adhesive backing so no additional glue is necessary. ​Mount Bedroom Heater: Securely mount a heater to the bedroom wall. I already have the heater here, and I believe it comes with wall mounting brackets in the box. It also comes with castors, which will be our Plan B if wall-mounting ends up not being possible. I have a stud finder available for you to use. ​Tools and Hardware: Please note that I will only be providing the EPDM sponge, the heater (along with its included brackets and castors), and a stud finder. You will need to bring your own tools and any other necessary materials (such as your preferred screws or wall anchors for the heater, just in case the supplied ones aren't suitable) to complete the work. ​Location is an apartment in Belconnen. Please let me know your availability!
Very polite and very friendly, thank you for a stellar job!

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.

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!!

It’s the thing that’s in your bathroom and it’s hanging down and maybe it can just be pushed back up but I don’t have a letter. I don’t really know. Be nice but do not fall down. I also am worried about the fans in the bathroom being full of dust, but that’s a whole issue and also concerned about my whole Aircon and fans needing a full clean out.
