Fix loose floating shelf and reinforce plasterboard wall

$100

Melbourne VIC, Australia

12th Apr 2026

Hi, I need a handyman to repair and securely re-fix a floating shelf in a hair salon located in Melbourne CBD. The shelf is currently loose and wobbly because the screws in the plasterboard have come out or the holes have become too large. The internal plaster is damaged, so simple re-screwing won't work. The task includes: Plasterboard Repair: Fill and reinforce the damaged holes in the plasterboard wall. Secure Re-installation: Re-mount the shelf so it is perfectly level and can handle daily weight/use. You must use heavy-duty anchors (e.g., metal hollow wall anchors or heavy-duty toggles) to ensure it's rock solid. Paint Touch-up: Sand the repaired area and touch up with white paint (Vivid White or similar) to match the existing wall. Requirements: Please bring your own heavy-duty plasterboard anchors and tools. Please bring a small amount of white paint for the touch-up. Must have experience with plasterboard repair and mounting heavy items. Please provide a quote including all necessary materials. Thank you!

Replace door handle on bedroom doors with key lockable handles

$100

Melbourne VIC, Australia

6th Mar 2026

Replace both bedroom door handles with key lockable handles. I do not have the handles as I don’t know the measurements.

Parking is available but vehicle not more than 2m high and a bit of an awkward park. There is a loading zone at the bottom of Drewery Alley,

Hadi did a fantastic job and exactly what I asked for. His communications were timely and he was super flexible with time and was able to accommodate my times. The door locks look great. He did a neat tidy professional job and cleaned up after. 10/10 would recommend.

Blind curtains maintenance

Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia

7th Oct 2025

Hi Dannis, I noticed your offer on my curtain maintenance task isn’t showing anymore, so I just wanted to check in directly. I’m still keen to have you take a look — your services seemed great. In the same CBD apartment, I also have a plumbing issue: the hot water takes several minutes to reach all the sinks. Would you be able to check both the curtains and this during one visit? Ideally! Are you available tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon? Visits to this place are a bit tricky to arrange, but if you can’t tomorrow, we can work it out. Please note that I offer $200 since it was the offer I made when posting the task, but I know there may be extras associated with the job you have to do. Please note this is jot just one time job, there may be more jobs coming from now on and having a reliable person like you, will help. Thanks so much, Natalia
