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.

Awning repair and reattachment
$250
Port Melbourne VIC, Australia
17th Oct 2025
In a big wind storm about a month ago - the awning above our front door was blown off. It then came crashing down and has bent slightly. We need it repaired and reattached please. You will need to navigate our staircase. I think you'll need to bend one arm of it back so it is straight. Then reattach with new attachments. It would be wonderful to get it done this weekend if possible.
Noah was great - friendly and did a great quality job.
QUOTE ONLY to Fix a balustrade slats falling out
$10
Aberfeldie VIC, Australia
17th Oct 2025
This is a repost to see if a carpenter can come out and look at this job. The slats keep falling out especially with the recent high winds. They sit in a groove in the bottom and upper handrail and do not fit lengthwise anymore as if the two rails have moved further apart. I’d like a quote to take into account the way to fix long term or if it needs full replacement. Two sections next to each other are doing it, as the photo shows one straight and one the angles down with the stairs.

I have an older tradie trailer that needs a repair to one of the hinges (see pictures). The hinge has rusted away.As a result, there's a small hole and the door doesn't shut properly. I am looking for someone to repair the broken bit.
Sebastian did some welding on a small tradie trailer that we bought second hand for camping. He helped by patching holes that had rusted away and advising on what else we could do. He was responsive and helpful and I appreciated not having to tow my trailer to a shop to have it fixed.
Install outdoor power point + remove old cabling

Hi! I’m looking to get a 10amp outdoor weatherproof power point installed in my car port, to slow-charge my e-Bike/car. The previous owner also left some questionable wiring in the adjacent shed area (looks like a permanently wired in extension cord) - it’s probably not compliant. I’d like to get rid of this. Quote for supply and install please.
Rhys did an amazing job installing a power point, and sorting out some complicated wiring from the previous owner. Really prompt and professional - you can’t go wrong!
