What do shelf hanging services include?
Common shelf installation services include building wardrobe and pantry shelves and hanging wall shelving. Your professional will ensure your shelf has the right fittings, angles, and is structurally sound. Popular shelf installation tasks include:
Install a floating shelf
A floating shelf is attached to a wall with no visible means of support, and are popular for their modern, minimalistic look. To begin installing your floating shelf, your handyman will assess the space and use a stud finder to mark the most secure spot for the brackets. They’ll use an electric drill to make a hole and secure the brackets, using a level to ensure everything lines up perfectly. Once the brackets are installed, they’ll measure the space between them and drill into the shelving to fit these exact measurements. Then they’ll slide the shelving into the brackets.
Install a hanging shelf
Your hanging shelf installer will make sure the best type of nail is used for your wall material and the best position to install your shelf. They will use a level if you’re installing more than one hanging shelf to ensure they’re mounted evenly. Your installer will advise how much weight the shelf will be able to bear and answer any questions you may have.
Install a wardrobe or pantry shelf
Your shelving installer will advise on the best kind of shelving to suit your space - fixed, adjustable, corner, floating, or pull out. They will then measure the space. If you’re hiring them to make the shelving too, they’ll let you know how long it will take them to build your custom shelving. Once the shelves are ready, they’ll use their tools to expertly screw your new shelves into place. If you opted for sliding or rotating shelves, they’ll ensure the shelves pull out smoothly.
Install a garage shelf
Getting your garage or workshop organised with shelving can help with storage and productivity. Your handyman will advise what type of shelving will best suit your space and align this with your weight-bearing requirements. With overhead shelving, your installer will attach the brackets to the ceiling where the joists are located - this is the strongest point in your ceiling.
Your handyman will properly measure the space for your overhead shelving and make sure it will not interfere with your garage door, lighting, and work area. They will then install your shelving, with the longest part going across the joists so that your new shelves will have the most support possible and not overburden the joists.

I want to install 3 shelves in my laundry nook, next to the cabinet. I already have the shelves, and I am wanting to use ledger boards to support them though I am open to recommendations on the best method. I’m also happy to go get the materials cut to size/whatever other supplies we may need. I’m in an apartment, the walls involved are firewalls, I’m told there are two extra layers of plaster inside. The studs are metal, though I don’t think they are positioned anywhere useful. Also want to make sure we don’t drill into anything important inside the wall of course! I’m not sure how easy or complicated this job is so open to negotiation on price.

I want to put a dryer on the shelf in my laundry cupboard. There is a shelf there, but I am not convinced it will take the 55Kg weight of a heat pump dryer. There is a solid MDF board to fix it to. This is necessary because the taps and power are on the back wall just above the washing machine.


Good communication, good work.

Need help patching holes + installing a floating shelf and soundbar Looking for someone to help with two small jobs: 1. Laundry cupboard – patch some wall holes and install a floating shelf (approx 110cm). If you can also buy a shelf for me I can pay for the cost of material and a bit extra for getting it 2.

I need two rows of shelving installed near the ceiling of my study. You'll need a stud finder, measuring tools and a drill, and be able to specify what we can pick up from Bunnings on the day. Happy to pay for the materials if you can provide the transport. Nothing fancy at all! Just need someone with the skills to screw the right planks of wood to the right type of brackets, and secure it to the wall. This is really about creating more storage space in my study with something simple and minimal. Photos show the area I need worked, and the black lines in the next photo show where the shelving would go. Shelf depth needs to be under 31cm and the width of the wall spans roughly 270cm.


Amazing job, what a great guy! Thank you so much Jacob, really appreciated your work and expertise!
