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.

Ethernet cable install (And extra power point)

$300

Double Bay NSW, Australia

27th Nov 2025

I need to run a connection from the living room space to two locations with ethernet jacks. 1 port one floor up directly above the living room. Another one 5 rooms away. Both cable runs could go long the outside of the house if in wall/roof or floor cabling is difficult. (If networking is your thing, you could connect a basic mesh system or ubiquity but I'm happy for just the cable and wall plugs to be installed. The house is brick. I'd also like a powerpoint installed directly opposite a powerpoint on the other side of a brick wall.

Tradesman needed

$500

Randwick NSW, Australia

24th Nov 2025

Window Tinter or Tradesman needed to apply blackout film to three windows in the master bedroom. As per the images, we started to do this ourselves but were not able to finish the job as it requires two people and a 3+ metre ladder. The highest point of window is approx 3.5-4 metres high. The ladder is only needed for the larger window which is approximately 2 metres high and 4 metres in length. The blinds may need to be removed and then screwed back in as the film needs to cover all of the window (especially the top section) so no light can come through. The job will only take approximately 1.5 - 2 hours. Black out film is provided. Need someone ASAP.
