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.

$450
Manly West QLD 4179, Australia
26th Aug 2025
Looking for a professional renderer to apply a durable,smooth, weather-resistant finish to a north-facing exterior brick wall of my home in Brisbane. The wall measures approximately 7.35m (L) × 0.9m (H) — total coverage is 6.615 m²**. Substrate: - Brick — mostly solid and stable, ready for rendering but some salt/humidity damage in small areas. Preferred materials: - Acrylic render (preferred for flexibility, UV resistance, and waterproofing). - Open to cement render with polymer additives if suitable for brickwork . Requirements: - Proven experience with exterior residential rendering. - Ability to recommend and source appropriate materials (or advise if I should supply). - Clean, professional finish with attention to detail - Must be familiar with Brisbane’s climate considerations (UV, humidity, expansion). Access & Timing: - Easy site access. - Flexible with scheduling — happy to coordinate around your availability. Budget: - Open to quotes based on scope and material choice. - Please include labour, materials (if supplied), and any prep or cleanup costs. Bonus: - If you can share photos of previous work or offer advice on finish types, that’s a plus. Looking forward to hearing from experienced pros.

Quote Plasterer required to set finish ready for painter Tingalpa ASAP
$30
Tingalpa QLD, Australia
23rd Aug 2025
I've had the hallway widened by 30cm, need a plasterer to finish off ready for painters, plus some other small plaster fill in work where things have been removed from walls, need this done before next Thursday 28th. I realise its late notice, but the chap doing the hallway widening can no longer get it done. All i ask is that when sanding is done that you have a fully functioning extractor to minimise the dust.


Communication was prompt, turned up on time, Russell does excellent work. If you want a professional job, then Russell will deliver 💯 .

I recently had Cale repair the ceiling at my townhouse, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. His workmanship was excellent, with a very professional finish that blended seamlessly with the existing ceiling. Cale was reliable, punctual, and took great care to keep the work area tidy. It’s clear he takes pride in what he does. I would highly recommend Cale to anyone needing a high-quality plastering job!!
