Darren did an excellent and very professional job repairing the holes in my plasterboard wall. He even went out of his way and fixed up little cracks on the corners of the wall. Anyone looking for a handyman then I would highly recommend Darren! Be warned of a different so called handyman making offers to do your works cheaply. He offered to do my job for $40 and when I accepted his offer through message he quoted me at $100! He is messing people around. There’s none of this crap with Darren, extremely happy with his quote and work. Highly recommend Darren.

Picture / Mirror Hanging handy man
$200
South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia
23rd Jan 2025
Hi, I was after a handy man to come and hang 4 framed pictures and 1 canvas print on various plasterboard walls in my house along with a wall hung mirror (50cm x 135cm) and coat hook. None of the pictures are of any value and should be straight forward. It is a project I don't want to attempt myself and the sizes of each item vary (please refer to pics). I also, don't have any tools or wall hooks. But I can buy wall hooks if need be. I work from home and can be flexible. Thanks Mark


Hamish was a very nice guy and did everything I asked. Would definitely hire again.

Hi there, Needing someone to help put a cupboard door back up as it came off (perhaps due to the weight or age). It’s a three hinge door, the screw holes are bigger now as the door tore them on the way down / over time they’ve worn. The original screws don’t fit the holes anymore, so needing some professional assistance. I’ve attached some pictures bellow. We need someone around 5:30pm tonight. Located in south Melbourne 3205 Thanks 😊
