What does a 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 help with home repairs or construction, you can find tradespeople to help with tasks like:

Electrical & plumbing

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

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.

Exteriors

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

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.

Remove a built in wardrobe

$5

Eaglemont VIC, Australia

22nd Feb 2024

Hello! We have a built-in wardrobe with hinged wardrobe doors that we need removed and disposed of. It needs to be dissembled out of the wall, you will need basic carpentry skills, and it is NOT a free-standing wardrobe that just needs to be carried out of the house - it is BUILT IN and needs to be taken out of the alcove/space - pls consider this before quoting. The doors DO NOT need to be removed. Just the internal drawers, shelves and hanging rail. You will need to bring your tools and a car, UTE or trailer big enough to remove the items. You will need two people to carry it out. This is close to what it looks like -https://www.mtmwardrobes.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_6065MTM-Wardrobes-Built-ins-scaled.jpg - Due date: Before Monday, 26 Feb 2024

Render a short brick wall

$500

Watsonia VIC, Australia

10th Jan 2024

I’m after a short brick wall to be rendered. Measures 12 mt long. It’s about 2 meters one end and 1.2 meters the other. I’ve been given a small budget to paint a mural on top of the render, so it doesn’t have to be a perfectly flat finish, (but flatter than brick is good for me.) Location is Diamond Village Shopping center Watsonia. No issues with access or timing. I’d be keen to have it rendered by early November - Due date: Before Sunday, 21 January 2024

Daniel has been a joy to work with, super straight forward and sent photos through of progress. Much appreciated!
