What does a tradesman do?

Tradesmen (and tradeswomen!) can help you tackle the tasks that need the expertise, tools, and knowledge that only a qualified local tradie can give. Whether you need help with home repairs or construction, you can find tradespeople to help with tasks like:

Electrical & plumbing

When you hire a tradie to work with electricity, gas, or water, they’ll need special qualifications, training, and equipment to keep you and your house safe from fires, flooding, and property damage. You’d need to hire an electrician to install your new light fittings or electrical equipment, like ovens. And you’d need a plumbing tradie to help with plumbing tasks, like fitting new taps and pipes, or gas plumbing tasks like installing or repairing heaters and stoves. Your tradie will start by asking questions about the issues you’re having, then they’ll do a physical inspection of the area to assess the work needed. They’ll use their specialist tools and equipment to repair, install, or replace parts to get everything working properly.

Carpentry & cabinet making

Tradesmen are usually qualified professionals, so they’re ideally suited to tasks that need a higher skill level than a handyman. Carpenters and cabinet makers are in high demand for installing new cabinets, custom-making furniture and installing built-in robes and cupboards. They’ll measure your space to ensure the furniture and built-ins fit perfectly and match your existing decor. Then they’ll work with a range of equipment and tools (onsite or offsite) to cut and shape the wood, then assemble any parts to create your finished product.

Exteriors

Tradesmen can help provide a professional finish to your exterior building tasks. For example, installing or repairing balustrades. Your professional tradesmen will measure, fit and install glass, metal, or wood balustrades to make your balcony area or stairs safe while matching the design of your home. Once they’ve established a safe work zone, they’ll remove the old balustrades before installing the new parts. Another popular exterior task is installing or upgrading awnings. Your tradie can pull down old, broken, or faded awnings and help you choose a new awning to match your house and surroundings. Then they’ll carefully install the new awning so that it is safe and secure.

Concrete repairs & resurfacing

When concrete is damaged, it can create trip hazards, and let in water, dirt and other pests, which can cause further damage. Concrete resurfacing can help repair damage and give your property an instant update with coloured concrete overlays and/or designs. Your tradie will first assess the damage, then repair or replace any broken areas. Then they may clean the existing area with high-pressure hoses or chemicals. Once the area is clean and prepared, they’ll mix up a thin, concrete-based surface compound that will cover the area.

[[Previous task got cancelled due to assignee personal circumstances]] Looking for someone, be it architect, recent architecture graduates or final year students wanting some experience, I want to iterate through a few ideas for renovations of a two-storey house built in the 1970s in Brisbane. Foundation, brick veneer, on a slope. We don't have any official house plans etc so we would rely on your knowledge of house structures in that period that were built in Queensland. Not planning to submit DA or anything at this stage, I have a few ideas of what I might want to do and I need to visualise it to help me communicate and get quotes from tradies etc. If you're in town, more than happy for you to inspect the site and measure things with me, but otherwise I am happy to provide pictures and measurements. If you are familiar with Australia building code, it's a plus. If you have creative minds and can contribute ideas on how to make the house super modern, even better. The budget for this initial stage can't be shifted too much but it might have follow up tasks if I end up needing a proper drawing for DA or for a structural engineer approval. In your offer if you could indicate whether you're a registered architect/engineer in Australia (with registration numbers) that would be great, or if you're a graduate or final year student, which university are you from etc. Relative familiarity with australia building codes and structural practicality is important for exterior design. Have a look at references and see if our design language matches As an output to this task: Current state of the property 1x 3d render 1x 2d floor plan 1x 2d house plan incl exterior lot and slope Short term renovations (minor changes to current state such as kitchen, deck and stairs balustrade , retaining wall, Aircon, roof replacement, garage door, landscape) 1x 3d render Long term renovation (house extension, deck and fence changes, staircase movement, bathroom reno and flooring changes): 1x 3d render

Zaid is honest and discuss task details to clearly understand requirements upfront. When the task has limited budget he would assist in prioritisation of efforts, ensuring the money is spent on achieving the most critical requirements. Would recommend.
