Jobs we get called for every week

😤

"The door won't close properly"

Doors drop over time as hinges loosen and frames settle. We plane the edge, tighten or replace hinges and adjust the latch so it closes and latches smoothly.

💧

"The tap's been dripping for months"

A dripping tap wastes thousands of litres a year and quietly annoys everyone in the house. New washer or ceramic cartridge — done in under an hour.

🕳️

"There's a hole in the wall"

Door handles through drywall, furniture damage, old anchor holes — patched flush, sanded smooth and painted to match. You'll forget it was there.

🦟

"The fly screen is ripped"

A ripped fly screen means mosquitoes, flies and mozzies in summer. We re-mesh or replace the frame entirely so you can have the windows open again.

📺

"I need a TV mounted properly"

We locate studs or use proper wall anchors, mount the bracket at the right height and run cables neatly. Proper installation that's safe and looks clean.

🔑

"The back door lock isn't secure"

Worn or flimsy locks on side and back doors are a security risk. We upgrade to quality deadbolts and make sure the door fits the frame properly.

FAQs

Home repairs questions

How much do home repairs cost?
+
We charge a call-out fee that covers travel and the first part of the job, then a fair hourly rate after that. For most small jobs — a sticking door, a tap washer, a fly screen — you're typically looking at one to two hours. We'll give you an upfront quote when we assess the work.
Can you do multiple small jobs in one visit?
+
Absolutely — that's often the most cost-effective approach. Make a list and we'll work through it systematically. Most customers find it better value to batch up the jobs they've been putting off rather than having us come out multiple times.
Do you do plumbing and electrical work?
+
We handle tap washers and general non-licensed plumbing maintenance, but licensed plumbing (pipes, hot water) and electrical work must be done by licensed tradespeople. We can refer you to trusted local plumbers and electricians if needed.
Can you match my existing paint colour?
+
For wall patching, we'll blend the repair as best we can. If you have leftover paint from when the room was painted, we'll use that for the best match. For older walls, there may be some visible variation as paint fades over time.
How quickly can you come out?
+
Usually within a few days for regular jobs. For urgent issues — a broken lock, a door that won't close — we try to get out same day or next day where possible. Give us a call and we'll let you know our next available time.
Why It Matters

Why home repairs compound when ignored

Houses are systems — a failed door seal lets in moisture, moisture swells timber, swollen timber jams doors and grows mould. Fixing the first fault breaks the chain. That's why the repair list deserves attention before it grows.

“Doors sticking or not latching”

Seasonal swelling or hinge wear — we plane, adjust and rehang so everything closes properly.

“Cracks and holes in plaster walls”

Patched, sanded and painted to invisible — including the settling cracks every home gets.

“Dripping taps and running toilets”

Quick fixes that stop water waste and stains — often several done in a single visit.
