Dee provided excellent communication advising us of his whereabouts and time of arrival. We really appreciated that. He was decisive and effective. He listened to what we wanted and recommended solutions. Once we agreed on the work he was fast, efficient and tidy. He also offered to dispose of obsolete fans and cleaned up after he had completed the work. It was a pleasure to have him do work in our home.

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.

Wall plastering
$500
Grange QLD, Australia

I need a professional plasterer to finish a newly built room. All gyprock is already installed on the walls and ceiling. This is a finishing job only—taping, mudding, and sanding. Room Dimensions: 2m x 4.2m with 2.4m high ceilings. Key Requirements: Square Set Finish: No cornice is being used. I need a perfectly flush, clean square finish on all wall-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall internal corners. Uneven Joins: A few boards have uneven joins (see photos) that will need a professional touch to feather out and ensure a flat surface. Full Finish: Tape and set all recessed and butt joints, external corner beads, and all screw heads. Sanding: Final sand must be paint-ready. Cleanliness: You must clean up all dust and plaster debris from the floor and site upon completion. Details: Materials: Please include the cost of all tape, base coat, and topping compound in your quote. Timing: Ready to start as soon as possible. Location: Grange Equipment: Please bring your own stools, tools, and drop sheets. A vacuum-attached sander is highly preferred to manage dust.
James did a fantastic job. Incredibly thorough and diligent. Cleaned up very well afterwards. I highly recommend him. Our job was for plastering of a new room, getting it to ready to paint
