What are the approximate fencing costs per meter in Melbourne for a 2M high standard colourbond fence wit...
Hi, the fence price starts from 70$-150$ (without installation charges) but it could vary in different areas.

I couldn't feel any soft spots under the shower tray, so I've drilled 2 holes at both ends to stop it spreading, and covered it with PC-11 epoxy paste. It looked like that did the job, but after about...
maybe it's happening because of the poor installation I think there is a weak spot under the tray call an expert to loo...

I have a Miele steam oven that stoped working a couple of years ago and finally took it out to get it looked at and it requires a new board - around $500. I’m happy to go ahead with the repair, however once it is up and going again, are there any parts in the steam system that may have corroded ove...

I was looking into solar before the lockdown and almost went ahead with it. The solar company told me I'd need to get a cover since they could only install it on a wall that faces north meaning it would get full sun. Does anyone have any experience with this? Do I really need a cover or are they ju...
Almost all solar inverter manufacturers require your solar inverter to be away from direct sunlight. Adding a solar inv...

Hi, We are in the process of building a new house and have the option of choosing our own appliances. Based on our research so far, we did not think it was prudent to have all appliances of the same brand and would rather ensure that the ones we get are better value for money. So we require help in...
