Property services

Everything a house needs before a sale, a new tenancy or a move. Electrical and plumbing work is done by licensed electricians and plumbers.

Repairs and trades

Lights, power points and safety fixes by licensed electricians. All electrical work is done by licensed electricians, with a Certificate of Compliance where needed.

Handles, locks, hinges, stays and latches replaced or adjusted. Small hardware problems are often the first thing buyers and tenants notice.

  • Locks changed for new owners
  • Handles, hinges and latches
  • Window stays and catches
  • Door closers and stops

Downpipe repairs

Broken, leaking or disconnected downpipes fixed so water goes where it should. Water from a broken downpipe ends up against the cladding or under the house.

  • Reconnecting and replacing downpipes
  • Brackets and joins
  • Spreaders and outlets

Roof and outside

Exterior and gutter cleaning

House washing, gutter clear-outs and paths brought back to clean. A clean outside lifts listing photos and keeps water off the house.

  • House wash
  • Gutter clearing
  • Paths, decks and driveways
  • Fences and outdoor areas

Roof moss and lichen treatment

Treatment that kills growth and helps protect the roof surface. Moss and lichen hold moisture against the roof. Treating it early protects the coating.

  • Moss and lichen spray treatment
  • Suitable for most roof types
  • Follow-up check on request

Roof waterblasting and painting

Roofs cleaned, prepped and repainted to lift the look and the life of the roof. A repainted roof changes how the whole house looks from the street.

  • Waterblasting and prep
  • Primer and roof paint systems
  • Ridge and flashing touch-ups

Inside

Walls, ceilings, trims and weatherboards painted by qualified tradespeople. From a single room before an open home to a full exterior repaint.

  • Walls, ceilings and trims
  • Weatherboards and fascias
  • Fences and decks
  • Touch-ups before listing

Carpet replacement

Measure, supply and fit for a single room or the whole house. New carpet is one of the fastest ways to freshen a rental or a house going to market.
