Handyman service - indoor installations and repairs

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.

A handyman can also help with soundproofing a room. If you're wondering about soundproofing cost, pricing varies based on materials, room size, and labour—get a quote to find the best option for your budget.

Find a handyman near you who can tackle tasks like setting up your shed foundation, patching up windows, getting your mower back in action, building a garden shed within your budget, and installing some outdoor blinds.

Need extra privacy? You can also have a handyman screen on your porch to create a more secluded and comfortable outdoor space.

Handyman service - bricklaying and building work

Small Custom Double Glazed Fixed Window Install & Supply

$1,000

Seacliff Park SA, Australia

21st Jun 2025

When we moved into the house, I built a little office under the house. I never put a window in to the outside world, and it kind of feels like a dungeon down there. I (think) we need about a 450 x 450 or 500 x 500 Double Glazed Fixed Window. I've done my best guess as you can see from the pictures. You can see on the outside of th ehouse where I estimate the window would end up, but that would have to be professionally measured of course. I cannot find a window to suit online, so need someone skilled in this area to supple one for the install as well if possible. It's double brick you'll be drilling through also.

Repair coffee machine

$100

North Brighton SA, Australia

22nd May 2025

I have a Breville Barista Express coffee machine. It keeps blowing out a rubber gasket ring, which now continues to occur even when the ring has been replaced. I believe the problem is quite common to the model and the solution is a matter of lock-tightening several internal screws which hold in the portafilter collar so it's able to work under pressure. The trick is pulling apart the internals to access the screws, and put it all back together - something I don't trust myself to do. It's explained pretty well in this video: https://youtu.be/W1iGAJGVSh4?si=1tZ8woFF4FTCYvOP Happy to drop off locally or arrange pickup, whatever suits

Very impressed by Werner’s communication and professional approach. Kept me up to date with photos and description of the repairs which were done promptly and carefully. Highly recommended.
