Basic repair of wooden bed frame (drilling of screws)
$50
Kensington, New South Wales
8th Apr 2025
Expected time of task: 5 mins. Wooden pegs that connected two sides of a wooden bed frame were broken during a move. I require a simple repair by drilling of screws to hold the two wooden pieces together in the absence of the pegs. Happy for this to be in situ solution to last only as long as the bed remains in its current position.

Installing a ceiling fan
$200
Kensington, New South Wales
25th Mar 2025
A previous Airtasker did a poor job installing a ceiling fan. Instead of securing it properly, he placed a piece of wood and screwed it in, leaving it loose. There is a metal beam available, so the fan needs to be securely mounted to it using a proper bracket or support. The electrical connection is already in place—everything just needs to be connected to the control unit. The job is straightforward: securely mount the fan to the metal beam and complete the wiring. Please help . Christoph


Lin was a pleasure to work with! He fixed a major mistake from another electrician, explained everything clearly, and labeled everything for easy understanding. His communication was excellent, and he ensured I had all the information I needed. A true professional with the right credentials—highly recommended! Thank you, Lin!”

Fix ceiling fan speed, possibly by replacing capacitor
$70
Kensington, New South Wales
10th Feb 2025
3 speed ceiling fan. When 1 is selected it is incredibly slow (near useless), 2 is only slightly better while 3 is super fast. We want to see if the 1 and 2 speeds can be increased, possibly by reconnecting wiring for the capacitor or a new capacitor. Note the fan hasn't suddenly broken as it has worked as described above for years. An electrician once looked at it and guessed it was because the fan was 4 speed but the switch on the wall was 3 speed. I am not convinced this is the case


Will use again.Thankyou

Gate hinge replacement / repair (automatic gate)
$300
Kensington NSW, Australia
19th Jan 2025
The head of the dynabolt holding a gate hinge to wall has broken. The hinge is now loose. You’ll need to allow for : - removing the large gate including the motors swing arm - replacing the lower hinge (or just the bolt) - remounting the gate and making sure the gate swings correctly to work with the gate motor (no problem with the motors operating the gate previously). It may be possible to reuse the lower hinge, but it could be difficult digging out the old bolt and then securing a new bolt in that same place in a secure way. I’ll leave that up to you. Please explain how you intend to do the repair with your quote.


Absolute perfection and exceptional technical skills including gate repairs, welding and all trades. You won’t find better.

Fridge keeps freezing everything i put inside. I tried by unplugging the unit, cleaning and defrosting the fridge however it still freezes my items in it no matter what settings of “cold” i use. It did get a little better as there isn’t anymore ice producing in the top first shelf inside the fridge. I believe it’s a compressor/gas problem. It might need a top up. Thank you
