Install Coat Rack On Wall

$250

Prahran VIC, Australia

16th Jan 2025

We would like two coat racks installed into our wall. We have attempted to do it ourselves but when drilling into the wall, we have had trouble getting the screws in deep enough to install the racks. We think there might be brick behind the plaster so would need something to drill into this. We also require a toilet roll holder installed which we have had similar trouble drilling into the wall.

Hamish did a great job. Good communication and friendly.

Electric recliner repair (switch replacement)

$125

Prahran VIC 3181, Australia

29th Dec 2024

I need a handyman that can fix electronics to obtain and solder a $6 Jaycar switch into my recliner sofa. https://www.jaycar.com.au/spdt-250v-3a-miniature-micro-switch-with-lever/p/SM1038 I have the part number and photos of how to fix but I'm not physically present at the moment so can't fit myself. The sofa is currently intact but stuck in an open position. It has two switches at each end (4x in total). One to open, one to close. Only one of these on one side has broken and this will need to be de-soldered and replaced with a new one. It took me around 1 hour when I did it previously. The fix can be crude as long as it works. It's not a precision soldering affair. Process: - Disconnect power pack - Flip sofa onto it's back by tilting it - pull back fabric on the broken side - use a stubby (or short) phillips screwdriver to undo the switch circuitboard - Desolder/cut off the broken switch - Remove the steel actuator lever off the new one (not needed) - Use pliers to trim tabs of the new one a little so it physically slots into the circuitboard holes - Resolder the new one in it's place - Refit is the reverse of removal, refit battery pack and test sofa (should work fine) Please refer previous work that you've completed in the response to the task. I'm looking for someone comfortable with soldering a simple circuit board (refer my pics). Apartment is located in Prahran, Melbourne, 3181.

JM fixed the electrics on my leather reclining sofa for me. The recliner was stuck in the up position. He replaced two micro-switches and without being asked also checked the wiring and found/fixed several spots where the wired had chafed. He re-insulated these and re-routed them so that they would not chafe again. He did this without being asked and for no extra charge. Very good comms, punctuality and quality of work. Will use again.

Front door alignment

$100

Prahran VIC, Australia

4th Dec 2024

Carpenter needed to re-align/re-hang the front door. Door has dropped on its hinges slightly, no longer latches properly each close - have to lift by the handle slightly for it to take. Everything is in good condition otherwise - door was taken off a couple months ago to shave the bottom, so I think this is a result of it not being hung properly when put back..

Thanks Terence! Quick, easy to work with, on time. Would recommend.
