Below are the five most common small repairs Sydney homeowners should stay on top of.
1. Fixing Squeaky or Sticking Doors
Sydney humidity can cause timber doors to swell, making them scrape or jam. We adjust hinges, plane edges, and lubricate tracks so your doors open smoothly again.
2. Repairing Cracked or Peeling Silicone
Bathrooms and kitchens wear out fast. Old silicone leads to leaks, mould, and water damage. We remove old sealant and apply new waterproof silicone for a clean, fresh finish.
3. Tightening Loose Handles & Hinges
Cupboard doors, drawers, and handles loosen over time. Five minutes of tightening today saves hundreds in replacements later.
4. Replacing Faulty Taps & Fixing Drips
A dripping tap wastes water and can stain sinks or damage cabinets. We repair cartridges, replace washers, and reseat taps for a long-term fix.
5. Patching Small Holes in Walls
Moving furniture, door handles, or wall anchors often leave dents and holes. We patch, sand, and repaint so the wall looks brand new.
