PAINT KITCHEN CABINETS + REFINISH TIMBER WORK BENCH

$380

Surry Hills, New South Wales

6th Jan 2025

Hello. Pls refer to the images attached for details Long story short the cabinets are pretty old and cheap but this is what I’m doing so before anyone tells me to replace them etc. I don’t want to hear it lol. Read da job and decide if you can do it or not. I will reimburse/transfer the cost of all additional consumables and materials bits bobs required to finish this. 1. REPLACE MDF PIECE - under the sink had a leak that’s now been repaired but unfortunately I let it go on for long enough for the water damage to rot that base board part. I’ve removed it and gotten a new piece of MDF cut to exact size to replace it. I was going to use furniture brackets to drill in and use to support the new piece but those got moved to storage so it’s easier if you get some new ones or whatever idea you think will work to hold up an 80cm x 60 cm piece of MDF 2. PAINT BASE CABINETS - Finish/go over my amazing midnight manic piece of work I started. Primer and paint provided. Oil base. Should have some sand paper and rollers/paint brushes left behind but get what you need from Bunnings. 3. Readjust the new door hinges I did a meticulous job guesstimating with the drill. They’re not exactly level and the one with the drawers overlaps the door part so you can’t open it properly lol. The doors will fit. Just needs fine tuning 4. ATTACH HANDLES - easy part 5. FINISH STICKY TILES - easy part WORK BENCH: Yeah idk. It’s an antique/vintage timber bench and thought I’d fill in the groove markings and gaps to make a flat even sealed surface more appropriate for food preparation area so I poured Agnew’s Water Putty to level the gaps and didn’t quite think through what my next move would be. I would say it can probs be mostly removed with a sand and a simple cleaning and sealing of the timber would suffice. Make it look acceptable.

Cut section in existing timber floor

$5

Surry Hills, New South Wales

28th Nov 2024

I'm having a new screen door installed, and the bottom track of the door needs to be recessed into my timber floor. As such I need a carpenter to cut my existing white oak flooring (and two skirting boards) along the length of an existing 3.2m wide bifold door. The cut section will be approximately 3.2 meters wide, and 100mm wide. In addition to that, I need to ensure that the joists beneath this section are also cut down to a depth of 50mm from the top of the floor. So the total section to be removed from the floor will be 3.2 meters, by 100mm wide, by 50mm deep. I've drilled a few holes in the floor in this section so I can tell that there is at least this much clearance available and you're not going to hit a concrete subfloor. The skirting boards along both walls that bracket this doorway will also need to have 93mm trimmed from them in the same location that the floor below is being cut. Both the skirting boards and the floor have been marked where they need to be cut. I'll also need someone to come back once the screen has been installed to add a ~10mm cork section to provide a seal between where the floor has been cut, and the 90mm wide screen door track.
