Gyprocker/Plasterer

$1,100

Kambah ACT 2902, Australia

2nd Jul 2026

Proven professional gyprocker/plasterer to: 1. Gyprock sheet both sides of a sliding door cavity that has been removed and replaced with studs/noggins ready for sheeting. 2. A non-load bearing wall has been removed (4.5m wide *2.7m high) and gyprock sheet required to lhs and rhs and ceiling where wall removed, including adding cornice to both ceiling sides. 3. Replace gyprock sheets to several ceiling holes that were cut out as inspection ports prior to the wall being removed. Gyprock to be left to a very high standard ready for me to paint. Ignore the far wall in the photo with the insulation batts. That won’t be gyprocked as part of this work. Job can be done in 2 parts: Part 1 to be done ASAP sheet old sliding door cavity and lhs of wall where wall removed. To make way for cabinetry install along that wall. Part 2 : remainder of work over next 4 weeks.

AMAZING worker! Nothing to hard. Very easy to deal with. I am blown away by his work ethic. 11/10.

Install indoor sensory hammock, patch holes in roof plasterboard

$150

Whitlam ACT, Australia

23rd Apr 2026

Trying to hang a sensory hammock for the kids that needs to be fixed into a joist with 2 bolts. Looking for you to also chuck some spackfiller or w/e in the holes I've drilled. I’ve used a stud finder to find what I thought were the ceiling joists, but driving a nail/drill bit through hits air. The roof has a bedroom above it if that provides any useful info.

Fantastic!!!! Showed up within 30 mins of booking, great communication. Job done.

Plasterboard/Gyprock wall patch repair (~40cm L-shape hole)

$200

Canberra ACT 2912, Australia

7th Mar 2026

Hi, Looking for someone experienced with gyprock / plasterboard repairs to fix a wall opening left after some plumbing work. The hole is roughly 38.5cm x 37.5cm and currently L-shaped. It will need a proper patch so the wall is solid and finished neatly. Ideally the job would include: • installing a plasterboard patch • taping the joints • applying compound • sanding to a smooth finish Basically looking for the wall to be finished paint-ready. I can provide the matching paint if painting is included. Please only quote if you have experience with gyprock wall repairs. A few things to confirm in your offer: • your total price including Airtasker fees • whether your quote includes both labour and materials • whether the job includes patch, taping, compound and final sanding • whether it will be left paint-ready or if painting is included • whether you have public liability insurance • whether you provide any workmanship warranty / guarantee Photos attached. Looking for someone reliable who can do a clean, professional repair. Budget around $200 but open to reasonable offers. Thanks!

Great job fixing the wall - hardly tell there was a hole before. Very efficient and professional.
