Top Clothesline Installation related questions

You should check when you buy your clothesline whether it can be installed on the type of wall or fence you have. Some clotheslines may not be installed on a Hebel or weatherboard wall, as they don't offer enough support. Your local council may also restrict clothesline installation on a fence.

When choosing a clothesline, you should consider how much laundry you need to dry and how much space you have outside. A rotary clothesline can be ideal for a large family that needs plenty of space for clothes, while a fold-down clothesline can be a great space-saver in smaller gardens.

If your clothesline needs to fit into a narrow space, your installer may be able to cut it down to the size you need. Some companies offer custom clotheslines that can be designed to your specifications, sometimes at no extra cost.

The standard height of a clothesline installation is 1.8 metres from ground level, but you can tell the installer if you would prefer it higher or lower. If your clothesline is being wall mounted, it's recommended that the brackets are attached 50mm higher than the person who will mainly be using it.

If you have an existing clothesline, most installers will take down and dispose of this for you, but this may cost extra. This does not normally include removing a concrete base. If this service is not offered, you will have to dispose of the clothesline yourself.

The cost of installation will depend on where your clothesline is being installed and any other services you need, such as drilling or rock breaking. The average cost of clothesline installation and repair on Airtasker is from $60 to $120.

What do Clothesline Installation & Repair services include?

Clothesline Installation and repair services include installing common clotheslines, such as the rotary clothesline and wall-mounted clothesline. For rotary clotheslines, this includes digging a hole in your outdoor space to anchor it, positioning the clothesline and filling the gap with concrete. After the rotary clothesline is installed and the concrete has dried, the clothesline head is put in place. 

As for the wall-mounted type, this includes positioning and bolting the wall brackets onto an exterior wall and threading the clothesline wires. Clothesline repairs include replacing damaged or missing clotheslines and replacing damaged brackets or clothesline heads. Note that you must supply the clothesline and a bag of concrete, gravel, digging tools and water when having a rotary clothesline installed.

Installing Rotary Clothesline

A handyman can install a new rotary clothesline for you in your backyard. Decide on the best spot to place this, as they will have to dig a hole at which the rotary clothesline’s pole will be anchored. At the spot you have chosen, the fixer will dig the hole then put the clothesline’s pole in place, ensuring that it is perfectly straight using spirit levels.

The handyman will then fill the void with a mix of concrete, a bit of gravel and some water.  After the concrete has set, they complete the installation by attaching the clothesline head and extending it.

Installing Wall-Mounted Clothesline

As for the wall-mounted type, a handyman will first bolt on the mounting brackets on an external wall of your choice. While taskers will usually have all the tools and safety equipment, refer to the instructions and requirements of your wall-mounted clothesline. You can advise a handyman of what tools they need for the job.

You aren’t obligated to do so, but you can lend tools or safety equipment. After the wall mounts are bolted on, they will proceed to place the front bar. They will complete the installation by stringing the wire or rope through the front bar.

Clothesline Repair

A handyman can also perform simple repairs to either type of clothesline, whether it’s a rotary or wall-mounted type. They can replace the clothesline wire or rope, fix damaged wall-mounted brackets or transfer a rotary clothesline to a new spot if its current anchor has weakened and caused it to become misaligned.

Install my clothesline & rubbish bin

$120

Margate QLD, Australia

20th Jun 2025

Primary Task – Clothesline: Removal: You will remove from the brick wall, the 2 x existing wall-mounted clotheslines: one being slightly larger in dimension than the other. Assembly: Following the instructions provided in the box, you will assemble the new clothesline. The specific product I have bought is made by ‘Hills’; it is described as a single wall mounted clothesline with dimensions of 2200mm (W) X 1200mm (D). Installing/ Fixing: You will now install/ fix new clothesline to the brick wall, utilising existing fixing points to mitigate the need for drilling of additional holes. Additional Info: You will need your own tools including a masonry drill (for brick work). As well as the instructions contained with product, there are also online resources/ videos that may be very helpful. E.g. https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGF2c1ByTE1TemEwaVF5WXVqMjJuZGNhVzdld3xBQ3Jtc0tsU3R0aU51MVBNekJIbjhpS3UyTS0yMzJ4MF9XZHhseUh2X3BNSUJJWDgyVDBmbXRCUjQ3UzRHWWJpNzdqM0staXE2dm1Yb19VdVBiUnZJLVNOSDlfWFFHdFJXa3hpMmFVbWlvOWdqZ1hxVllyRVE1RQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.TheClotheslineStore.com.au%2F&v=nI0G0PFcpUI Secondary Task – Rubbish Bin: Installation of a new 12 Lt ‘Swing Bin’ to under bench kitchen cupboard (see photo). Installation instructions in the box. NB: I have already checked and confirmed the product is suitable for the space (i.e. it does fit). Fixing screws and required brackets come with the product. You will need your own screwdriver or power drill.

Very good work by Paul. Efficient and no nonsense....I like that.

Install 2x window blinds and one clothesline in a new property

$170

Southern River WA 6110, Australia

12th Jun 2025

window blind (0.9mx2.1m) - expansion nylon plugs and screws are provided. Measurements have been roughly marked and partially pre-drilled, and you need to double check again all the measurement. I had to stop as I hit steel and didn’t have the appropriate hand drill for it. The wall is made up of wood on the lower half and steel on the upper half. To ensure a secure installation, nylon expansion plugs should be used. The clothesline measures 2.2m x 0.68m and will be installed on the plain wall as shown. I’ll be on-site to indicate the exact installation location. I’ll be on-site to assist if any help is needed. You’ll need to bring your own tools and equipment to complete the job, but all wall plugs and screws will be provided as they come with the package.

At first, I was curious how an Airtasker with over 1,800 reviews could maintain a perfect 5-star rating. But after working with Abdu, it became clear why. From the initial communication and punctual arrival to completing the job flawlessly and cleaning up afterward, everything was handled with professionalism. On top of that, he’s a genuinely friendly and enjoyable person to be around. I’ll definitely be using his services again.
