6 ConcreteWall RamPlugs drilled into walls of a small residential Unit

$160

Newtown NSW 2042, Australia

19th Apr 2024

Hoping to find an Experienced Professional Handyman for a small job. Could you please provide the Concrete Wall Plugs and bring an Electric Drill. I have included a photo of a pack of ten that could be purchased at Bunnings. They are about $20 for 10. They are 8cm long. I hope this is long enough to be strong to hold some pictures up (2 are heavy and covered in glass). Please make the judgement for the right WallPlugs with casings / anchors etc. They would need to all be from one set and look the same for consistency. I have made the markings in the walls for the whereabouts of the drilling after taking measurements of the picture frames and ropes etc, so it's all ready to go. I have a reliable chair that can be stood on for the job. There are about 6 places marked for 5 pictures and one mirror. I can move the furniture out of the way prior to your arrival. I can pay a flat rate of $160 that would cover the concrete plugs. The day I was hoping to get it done was Friday 26th April. Parking is usually free around here, its a less busy area. I'll check the Offers again tomorrow 20.4.24. Thanks

Professional, helpful and communicative. Very happy after having a number of paintings sitting on the floor for 3 years, now they are securely hanging from the walls. Thankyou Paul.
