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.

Painter / Plasterer Needed – End of Lease Wall Repairs & Touch-Ups
$480
St Peters NSW, Australia
19th Jan 2026
We’re moving out of a rental after 8 years and are looking for an experienced painter and wall patcher / plasterer to help get the walls back to a good, presentable condition. There are various marks, small holes, dents, and scuffs across the house from general wear and tear, hanging items, and a dog (some scratching on doors). This is very much an end-of-lease tidy-up, not a full repaint. The job is for 8 hours total, focusing on getting as much done as possible in that time rather than aiming for perfection. Property details: • 3-bedroom house • House will be completely empty • Walls + some doors need attention What’s included / not included: • ✅ Paint will be supplied (matched and ready) • ✅ Drop sheets provided • ❌ You’ll need to bring your own tools (brushes, rollers, buckets, sanding tools, etc.) • I will patch what I can the day before so it has time to dry Timing: • Monday 2nd February • Ideally 9:00am – 5:00pm (or as close as possible) Important notes: • This job is based on time, not a fixed outcome • We understand that repairs and painting don’t always go perfectly from A → B • Photos of example damage will be attached to give a clear idea of the work involved Looking for someone reliable, efficient, and experienced with end-of-lease repairs.
Soooo good, highly recommend
