Superstar. Arrived on time, diagnosed missing lines, hooked up a new telephone line and cleaned-up. Recommended

NBN activated, need to run telephone line to a new or existing point

$100

Alex was awesome. He made an offer the day I posted and showed up the next. It was a very tricky job to install a new telephone line to the top, furthest most apartment in a double brick building from the 1930s. But he worked very carefully and quickly, finishing up by replacing the wall jack and leaving everything just as it was when he arrived. Thanks Alex!

What does a telephone engineer service include?

Telephone engineers can do more than just install a new phone line in your office or home - they can help you troubleshoot connection problems with your broadband or fax lines, help improve the reception you get on these devices, and more. While the specifics can vary from Tasker to Tasker, here’s what you can expect when you request a telephone engineer service on Airtasker:

Phone line and socket installation

Got a new home or office and need your phone lines installed quickly? We can find a Tasker to do this for you! This service is also ideal for those who’d like a second phone line installation or those who want it set up in a particular room or area. Telephone engineers can also reposition or install a new socket in an area that’s easier for you to reach. 

No need to worry about purchasing any equipment or tools for this - your specialist arrives with all these in their kit! Just provide the phone line, point to where you’d like it set up, and they’ll hop to it.

Phone troubleshooting and repair

If you’ve been experiencing problems with your telephone, like cordless phones with receivers that are too far away, or previous repairs that were done poorly, a Tasker can help sort things out. Detail your phone’s issues in the task post, so prospective telephone engineers will know what equipment to bring. 

Then, they’ll assess your phone units, the electrical outlets, DSL filter, and the connector box. Once they find the problem, they’ll do the necessary repair or replacement, test the phone, and be on their way.

Internet connection installation and troubleshooting

Phone lines are pretty much linked to your internet connection, so you’ll need to consult a telephone engineer if you’re experiencing slow internet speeds or want to set up a new computer. Taskers can check your cables and phone line extension. If necessary, they can set up a socket closer to your workstation to improve your broadband or wireless connection.

Still, got IT troubles after troubleshooting with your telephone engineer? It might be time to upgrade your computer.

Completing your home or office phone line set-up

Your office or home workstation may need more than just a working phone line and an internet connection - you might also need to install a fax machine, hide unsightly cables, or put in a Sky TV installation! The good news is that our telephone engineers are usually equipped to handle these kinds of tasks, too. 

And if phone line connections are just the start of your office to-do list, we can also help you with chores like assembling furniture or work stations. With Airtasker, you can get your new workplace set up in no time at all!

Move telephone line into another room

Manly NSW, Australia

4th Dec 2021

Currently my the only phone line in the house is in my bedroom. I need to move this to the living room about 5 meters away. The current phone line comes in from outside and line just needs to be extended. There is already a hole drilled in the wall in the living room which currently is used by the old telsta cable service. So thentelstra cable can be removed and the phone cable fed into the living room through this wall. Also need a phone socket point put in the living room. Thanks James and julie - Due date: Flexible

Existing set up is HFC and we now need FTTC connection. That means telephone line from Telstra/NBN box on outside wall to our current Telstra connection box and smart modem. Easy access via ceiling space. Distance from outside box to modem and connection box is around 15m. Will need the telephone jacks for connection box only as we do not want/use a landline phone.

I need a phone line re-run so that I can connect to nbn. My apartment is on the second floor of an old brick building. There's currently something that looks like the telephone wire (see photo), but it is cut off and the nbn technician wasn't able to detect a signal from any of the wires at the telecom box on the ground floor.

Alex was awesome. He made an offer the day I posted and showed up the next.
