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.
