Sound Proofing Apartment front door and bedroom window
$2,000
Footscray VIC, Australia
12th Mar 2025
I have a window in my bedroom that lets in a lot of street noise. I also believe I might need to soundproof the walls. Additionally, I can hear other tenants entering and talking while waiting for the elevator through my apartment's front door. My window has double glazing and can be retracted outwards, but I don't mind if it becomes fixed. I've looked into products like seals and retrofit glazing, but I prefer a professional to assess my situation. I want to ensure the front door and window have the best solutions in place to reduce the noise.

Home handyman
$250
Footscray VIC, Australia
11th Feb 2025
Four odd jobs around my apartment that would suit an experienced handyman: [1] Replace or repair the loose toilet seat/lid on my toilet. May involve sourcing replacement parts, and I will pay or reimburse at cost (receipt required). [2] Diagnose faulty extractor fan and repair, if possible. Note, it is possible an electrical technician certification needed to complete this job. Happy to exclude the repair as part of negotiated price. [3] Replace kitchen mixer tap with a new one. May involve sourcing replacement mixer following consultation and I will pay/reimburse at cost (receipt provided). [4] Fixing IKEA 3-track curtain track to ceiling (3 x 140 cm, end to end). I have the materials, fixings, and a small step ladder, but I have a long term shoulder injury so I can’t reach above my head for extended periods.


Great communicator and genuine interest in doing a good job. Thanks Scott!

Manual roller shutter maintenance
$200
Footscray VIC, Australia
7th Feb 2022
I have two manual roller blinds that need fixing (both in bedrooms). One is in working order but the bracket that holds the open/close winder has come loose from the wall. It needs to be reattached and may need a piece of wood put behind it to give the screws something to grip onto. The other one is stuck (half open) and the wire inside the mechanism needs to be either unstuck or replaced. I have a painter working on the house this week so would ideally like this done asap so that they can paint after the blinds have been fixed. - Due date: Before Friday, 11th Feb 2022
