Handyman for end-of-lease wall touch-ups + power point cover

$150

South Yarra VIC 3141, Australia

12th Aug 2026

We’re moving out of our South Yarra apartment and want to get it inspection-ready to secure our bond back. Looking for a general handyman to come give the place a once-over and patch up minor marks and damage before our final inspection. What we need: • Walk through the apartment and touch up scuffs, marks and small dents on walls and ceilings (paint colour matching where needed) • Fill and patch a few small gouges/chips (wall corner, architrave, wall dents) • Supply and fit a cover plate for a double power point that’s missing its faceplate • If possible, repair a small chip in a floor tile — happy for you to take a look, but not a dealbreaker if it can’t be done Please bring your own filler, paint/touch-up supplies and a standard power point cover. If you need us to confirm the paint colour or socket brand beforehand, just message us. Melbourne / South Yarra. Flexible on timing except for Monday as the cleaners will be there — let us know your availability and quote. Thanks!

Colin is a true handyman and professional. Was great working with him

Fix my kitchen door so it closes

$100

South Yarra, Victoria

7th Aug 2026

Our kitchen door doesn't close, i think because floor has been redone to a higher level than original. It looks like someone has already tried to file back the bottom. Can you get it to close cleanly, with enough clearance so building movements won't have it jammed in future?

Great! Really good service.

I’m moving out and need an experienced plasterer or handyman to repair and paint damaged plasterboard areas across 2 bedroom. There is 8 spits. Mesh patches have been added to some areas. ( a grandparent started and got sick ) This is a make-good job rather than a full renovation

Hekmat is a professional painter and plasterer who really knows his stuff. From his equipment to the quality of his work, everything was fantastic and made it all easy. He communicated clearly, turned up when he said he would, and followed through on every detail. Genuinely nice guy, no drama at all, the whole experience was awesome. I’d use him again in a heartbeat. highly recommend

After a handyman for a roughly two-hour job at an end-of-lease apartment: • Fill and sand around 10 holes in the walls from artwork that was mounted (some may be heavier anchors/wall plugs, not just small nail holes) • Remove a wall-mounted TV bracket and patch/fill those holes • Paint touch-up over the patched areas — I have all the original matching paint on site, so just need it applied Should be a straightforward job for someone with the right gear. Please bring your own filler, sanding tools, and brushes/roller. Happy to confirm timing once you’ve had a look at the holes.
