Mount tv to apartment wall (plasterboard with studs)

$85

Kingston ACT, Australia

23rd Mar 2025

I would like someone to mount my tv onto my wall. 📺Tv size:50” 🗜️Mount: supplied ✅ tilt tv wall mount 32”-80”, 600mm x 400mm. 45kg rated. Screws for attaching mount to tv back included. 🧱Wall: plasterboard 🧰Tools: supplied ✅ you are welcome to bring and use your own, but if you need to you can use my DRILL , STUDFINDER, LEVELLER and drill BITS if you need to. 🔩Screws: Please supply the required screws/plugs. ❗️ 📏 ideal mounting height: 76cm from the floor Other information: ❓I have tried using magnets and a studfinder to find some studs but cannot seem to drill into a wooden batten. It is possible that they are thin metal ones which are apparently common with new apartment builds, but I am not an expert. I would like someone who has experience with these kind of walls/set ups, and can mount the tv securely. ⚠️I want to avoid only mounting into the plaster as the tv will sit on the same wall as the front door, so impact/vibrations from that opening and closing is a factor I want to consider. ⏱️ preferred time: as this is located in an apartment complex I will avoid drilling outside 7am and 7pm out of consideration for my neighbours. I look forward to viewing your offers. Thank you 🙂 ➕ I am also seeking someone to drill a 2 bike hooks into a concrete wall, if this is someone you can also do then flick me a message and we can work out a package deal. (As this is concrete you will need to bring your own hammer drill and tools)

Jamal was great, on time, had quality tools and did quality work.

Handy person to fix two power points and hang picture ledges

$50

Dickson ACT 2602, Australia

31st Dec 2024

I have two power points that have randomly become unstuck. One appears to have just come unstuck from the wall and with the waterproofing bit I can't work out how to put it back in, the switches all work it's just unattached as per the pic. The other one is attached but the button that activated the bathroom fan isn't working, it's like the fan just isn't attached to the button which you can see from the flat button. These are issues in two separate bathrooms for clarity. I also need someone to hang four picture ledges, two sets of two next to each other. Happy if you want to quote just for one of the tasks, I also know it's going to cost more but no idea what so happy for quotes.

I didn't realise I didn't have the screws for the task and Jamal had brought everything I needed. He also had the switch needed to fix my light on hand. Thanks Jamal!
