Plastering: 4 small wall patches + install 1m cornice (West Footscray)

$350

West Footscray VIC 3012, Australia

27th Jun 2026

Hi, I am preparing my apartment for inspection and need a local plasterer or skilled handyman for a few small repair jobs. Plaster Patches: There are 3 small wall/corner patches and a larger patch in the bottom of a cupboard that need to be cut out, replaced/filled, and sanded back perfectly smooth ready for paint. The plaster has pulled away due to old, resolved moisture (the area is completely dry now, no active leak). Cornice: Need approx 1 metre of cornice installed above the cupboard. I already have a length of cornice on site. You will need to cut to size, bring cornice cement, cut the mitre corners, and install/blend it. Please bring your own plaster, base coats, and tools. I have the wall paint ready to go. Looking to get this completed ASAP. Thanks!

Jovanni was very efficient and did a great job patching up, sealing and painting. Will call him again for future patch and paint jobs.

I need someone to repair my roller blind. The fabric has come off the roller tube and prior to that the winder wasn't working properly (it would unravel).

As it's a long, wide blind, I'm happy to help with the rehang if required.

Good afternoon, We need some maintenance for our main HVAC unit (model as shown in the in pictures). It works well, but we need some general maintenance. Only comment is that the airblade doesn’t remain at the selected position (and drops to a lower level) - if we were to be able to sort this out that would be fantastic. Ideally this could be done on Friday 6th June (morning) but we can be flexible for the right person. We are located in West Footscray (Hansen Reserve side). Thanks, Andre
