Put sauna together

$95

Lawson ACT 2617, Australia

16th May 2026

Sauna requires putting together, I can no longer help with this due to medical condition. My partner and I normally put together. Recently moved, the sauna is in the shed, in place ready to be put together. It’s quite easy to put together, it clicks into place with clips. The only awkward part is the last panel with door and frame to connect. Should take around 20 mins max. Would require at least 2 people. Photos attached - what it currently looks like verses what it looks like when together Located Kaleen - it won’t let me fix address

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.
