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.

Licensed Electrician – Install Outdoor 10A Power Point
$250
Armadale VIC 3143, Australia
3rd Nov 2026
Hi, I'm looking for a licensed electrician to provide a written quote and install a standard 10A power point inside my ground-floor garage for charging a Tesla Model 3 using a Tesla Mobile Connector. **Important – Victorian EV Charging Requirements** A dedicated wall-mounted EV charger (such as a Tesla Wall Connector) is NOT required. The Victorian Government confirms that EVs can be charged using a standard Australian 10A household power point (Level 1 charging). Reference: https://www.energy.vic.gov.au/renewable-energy/zero-emission-vehicles/charging-your-electric-vehicle The installation must still comply with Victorian electrical safety requirements, applicable Australian Standards and Tesla's instructions, including any dedicated-circuit requirements. **Existing Setup:** - Existing outdoor power point on the upper-floor balcony, connected to my electricity meter. - Garage located approximately two levels below. - Preferred cable route is vertically down the external brick wall using protective conduit. - New standard 10A outlet to be installed inside the garage, protected from weather. **Scope of Work:** 1. Assess whether the existing balcony circuit can safely support regular overnight EV charging. 2. Provide a written quotation for landlord and body corporate approval. 3. Install a standard indoor 10A outlet using the existing circuit only if compliant. 4. Ensure appropriate electrical protection, earthing and testing. 5. Provide a Victorian Certificate of Electrical Safety. **Budget: Maximum $250**, including quotation, labour, materials, GST and certification. I am renting, so installation can only proceed after landlord and body corporate approval. If a dedicated circuit or additional electrical work is required, please explain before proceeding. I am seeking a safe, compliant and cost-effective solution without purchasing a wall-mounted EV charger. Photo of proposed installation route attached. Thank you.
This weekend, electrical job, CBD: exhaust fan, power points

Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia
3rd Nov 2026
I own an apartment that has two power points and an exhaust fan in a bathroom that have never worked since I bought it in 2023: I’d like a licensed electrician to take a look at what needs doing. The unit fit out was done in 2004. If it needs replacing, ideally you can install a new exhaust fan on the day. It looks the same as the picture attached. I’m happy to pay additional $ for parts as required. Unfortunately there’s no parking in the building but there is street parking and parking garages nearby. The unit is in the CBD near town hall. This Saturday or Sunday only please, and please note what’s included in your offer.
Very easy to work with, great communication and explanation of what was going on, sorted everything out. Legend 👍

Plastering Work

Coburg VIC 3058, Australia
3rd Oct 2026
Had a bad roof leak in one of our bedrooms due to the heavy rain over the last few days, which resulted in us having to have a large section of the plaster cut out to remove damage. We need this repaired and repainted asap as this is our 2 year old’s bedroom. If you can also do repairs on eaves/cement sheet, we had our balcony repaired a few months ago due to water ingress and damage, and need the cement sheets replaced outside by the front door/entryway. All photos attached.
Cannot recommend enough. Work is of a high standard and Jovanni is wonderful to deal with! 😊 thank you so much!

I need an experienced carpenter or builder to inspect my back verandah and quote on repairs. There is significant water damage and rot to timber around a verandah post and handrail.
