What do shelf hanging services include?
Common shelf installation services include building wardrobe and pantry shelves and hanging wall shelving. Your professional will ensure your shelf has the right fittings, angles, and is structurally sound. Popular shelf installation tasks include:
Install a floating shelf
A floating shelf is attached to a wall with no visible means of support, and are popular for their modern, minimalistic look. To begin installing your floating shelf, your handyman will assess the space and use a stud finder to mark the most secure spot for the brackets. They’ll use an electric drill to make a hole and secure the brackets, using a level to ensure everything lines up perfectly. Once the brackets are installed, they’ll measure the space between them and drill into the shelving to fit these exact measurements. Then they’ll slide the shelving into the brackets.
Install a hanging shelf
Your hanging shelf installer will make sure the best type of nail is used for your wall material and the best position to install your shelf. They will use a level if you’re installing more than one hanging shelf to ensure they’re mounted evenly. Your installer will advise how much weight the shelf will be able to bear and answer any questions you may have.
Install a wardrobe or pantry shelf
Your shelving installer will advise on the best kind of shelving to suit your space - fixed, adjustable, corner, floating, or pull out. They will then measure the space. If you’re hiring them to make the shelving too, they’ll let you know how long it will take them to build your custom shelving. Once the shelves are ready, they’ll use their tools to expertly screw your new shelves into place. If you opted for sliding or rotating shelves, they’ll ensure the shelves pull out smoothly.
Install a garage shelf
Getting your garage or workshop organised with shelving can help with storage and productivity. Your handyman will advise what type of shelving will best suit your space and align this with your weight-bearing requirements. With overhead shelving, your installer will attach the brackets to the ceiling where the joists are located - this is the strongest point in your ceiling.
Your handyman will properly measure the space for your overhead shelving and make sure it will not interfere with your garage door, lighting, and work area. They will then install your shelving, with the longest part going across the joists so that your new shelves will have the most support possible and not overburden the joists.

Handyman - install shelves x3 on brick wall

Turramurra NSW 2074, Australia
20th Jun 2026
I need: • Two cat shelves installed on masonry walls (each needs 5 holes drilled) • A hanging clothes rack reinstalled (it’s pulling out of the wall) • An aerator replaced in a bathroom tap (I have the spare part) • Hook up mini Weber Q BBQ (I moved it on the balcony and have no idea how to reconnect it to the LPG) I have attached pics of the 2 x cat shelves so you can see what’s involved. Plus pic of the wall hanger to be reinstalled. Happy to negotiate costs - especially as I’m asking for weekend work. I’ve been let down by a number of trades that simply haven’t responded or turned up. Your review are amazing!
I posted a task on Sat AM requesting work to be done that weekend. Tim replied within a few minutes of posting the ad, and arrived within the hour. He was courteous, prompt, worked to a high standard and tidy. Tim was fantastic and I’d absolutely use him again. Thank you so much Tim ⭐️

Install shelving above washing machine
$150
South Yarra VIC, Australia
21st May 2026
I'm looking for an experienced and qualified carpenter to cut and install shelves above the washing machine in my laundry. I will remove current shelving system. Cost is negotiable (honestly no idea how much a job might cost so ignore $ amount). You will need to measure before and source materials for which I will pay for. I'd like solid wooden shelves ideally, yet open to melamine or other material. Each shelf needs to be approximately 600mm x 700mm. As you can see from the photo, it's a brick wall.
I couldn't have been happier with the shelving that Vernon installed. He exceeded my expectations, helped with some early decision making, and was also a delight to work with. I'm already thinking of other tasks I need done.
