What does a local tradesman do?

Tradesmen (and tradeswomen!) can help you tackle the tasks that need the expertise, tools, and knowledge that only a qualified local tradie can give. Whether you need a trade to help with home repairs or construction, you can find local tradesmen to help with tasks like:

Electrical & plumbing tradies

When you hire a tradie to work with electricity, gas, or water, they’ll need special qualifications, training, and equipment to keep you and your house safe from fires, flooding, and property damage. You’d need to hire an electrician to install your new light fittings or electrical equipment, like ovens. And you’d need a plumbing tradie to help with plumbing tasks, like fitting new taps and pipes, or gas plumbing tasks like installing or repairing heaters and stoves. Your tradie will start by asking questions about the issues you’re having, then they’ll do a physical inspection of the area to assess the work needed. They’ll use their specialist tools and equipment to repair, install, or replace parts to get everything working properly.

Carpentry & cabinet making tradies

Tradesmen are usually qualified professionals, so they’re ideally suited to tasks that need a higher skill level than a handyman. Carpenters and cabinet makers are in high demand for installing new cabinets, custom-making furniture and installing built-in robes and cupboards. They’ll measure your space to ensure the furniture and built-ins fit perfectly and match your existing decor. Then they’ll work with a range of equipment and tools (onsite or offsite) to cut and shape the wood, then assemble any parts to create your finished product.

Home exterior work tradies

Tradesmen can help provide a professional finish to your exterior building tasks. For example, installing or repairing balustrades. Your professional tradesmen will measure, fit and install glass, metal, or wood balustrades to make your balcony area or stairs safe while matching the design of your home. Once they’ve established a safe work zone, they’ll remove the old balustrades before installing the new parts. Another popular exterior task is installing or upgrading awnings. Your tradie can pull down old, broken, or faded awnings and help you choose a new awning to match your house and surroundings. Then they’ll carefully install the new awning so that it is safe and secure.

Concrete repairs & resurfacing tradies

When concrete is damaged, it can create trip hazards, and let in water, dirt and other pests, which can cause further damage. Concrete resurfacing can help repair damage and give your property an instant update with coloured concrete overlays and/or designs. Your tradie will first assess the damage, then repair or replace any broken areas. Then they may clean the existing area with high-pressure hoses or chemicals. Once the area is clean and prepared, they’ll mix up a thin, concrete-based surface compound that will cover the area.

Install 10A Power Point (Convert existing 20A hard wired connection)

$125

Robina QLD, Australia

14th Oct 2025

I’m replacing my existing hard-wired oven (20A) with a new oven that has a 10A plug. The current setup is a hard-wired 20A oven circuit (with existing cabling in place). I need a licensed electrician to: Disconnect the existing hard-wired oven connection. Install a standard 10A single power point (or double) (surface-mounted or flush, depending on what suits). Replace the 20A circuit breaker at the electrical switchboard with a 10A breaker to suit the new outlet. Test the circuit for safety and compliance (RCD, earthing, etc.) Notes: The existing cabling and circuit are already in place — just need conversion to a socket outlet. The new oven is 10A with a standard plug (comes fitted). Please bring all required parts (10A socket, 10A breaker, etc.) and include them in your quote. Location: Robina When: Flexible — ideally within the next week. Requirements: Must be a licensed electrician (please include licence number in your offer).

Rendered Letterbox Build

$1,600

Worongary QLD 4213, Australia

20th Sep 2025

Currently have 2 concrete steps to be cut out (as they were done at wrong height), I can arrange the concrete removal once the steps are cut/jackhammered out. Once removed, require just one concrete pad to the full width between the retaining and driveway (1600mm wide x 800mm deep) with a rendered letterbox built on top of pad adjacent driveway. I can assist with brick supply. As an alternative option can you also provide cost for one rendered brickwork letterbox only (no concrete stair removal and no extended concrete pad) Thank you so much

Really happy with Clinton’s work on our concrete pad and letterbox - he communicated well and made some great suggestions.
