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.

Patch gyprock holes on the wall
$100
Coolalinga NT 0839, Australia
27th Jan 2026
I am looking for someone to patch my gyprock wall. There are six small holes, the largest one being about 100mm by 100mm. Before you patch the holes, the blue cable that you see in the image has to pass through the lowest hole (not yet completely drilled). Your job is to patch every hole except the one at the bottom, where the cable will pass through. The holes are above the wardrobe so access is a bit of a challenge. Clearance between the top of the wardrobe and the ceiling is only 300mm. you will need to bring your own ladder. I supply the following (you can google them for details): 1. 2X Pfeiffer wall patch 15cm by 15cm 2. Sika filler – 101 fine surface filler 3. Fine sanding block 4. A lot of 13mm gyprock if you need it for the back 5. CSR Gyprock rapid patch mix (powder) I don’t have 10mm gyprock. You don’t need to paint it when you are done, I can paint it later.

Build and install awning
$800
Millner NT 0810, Australia
25th May 2025
I need someone to build and install an awning. I have steel available for it already, just need the frames built and installed. I can order the Colorbond too. I have attached a photo of my neighbours awning and basically want to get the same constructed. I can help with labour to install, I just don’t have the facilities to cut and weld the steel.
I gave Brooke instruction to build an awning same as my neighbours, and it ended up looking rather different and nothing was square. Wasn’t happy with the result and I have had to engage someone else to take it down and build it properly. Brooke was pleasant to deal with, but he lacked the tools, technical skill, and attention to detail for the job that I gave him. Never cleaned up either and left metal swarf, screws and concrete dust everywhere.
