The Bunnings Workshop community can help with your home improvement projects.
Many thanks for joining the Bunnings Workshop community. You have joined a friendly, helpful community of people who are happy to roll the sleeves up and get stuck into home improvement projects.
We try to encourage everyone to have a go and will happily provide the advice and support you need. If you need a hand with a project, please don’t hesitate to click on the Start a discussion button. We have plenty of community members keen to share their experience and knowledge.
If you need a tradesperson to assist you, we recommend you try a site like Airtasker or hipages. We sometimes get members on Workshop asking for recommendations for tradespeople in their area, but Workshop is a community for people right across Australia and New Zealand so it is unlikely that there will be a member near you who can recommend someone suitable. It's best to go direct to a site that is designed for that purpose.
Feel free to reach out any time you need help getting the most from the Workshop site or have any feedback about how we can make Workshop more useful for you.

Soon to be hubby decided to purchase online gate openers but now it is just sitting in the box.
Need to find someone locally to me 4341 postcode to actually install them so I don't have to get outta my car to open the gates
Hi @jennihertrick,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.
I'd suggest having a look on a service such as HiPages, Airtasker or True Local for a business or tradesperson who specialises in automatic gates and doors.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi @jennihertrick,
The other option is to speak with friends or community groups in the local area and ask for suggestions about who they use. Often, finding someone who is already doing good work with others is the best way to get yourself a reliable tradesperson.

Hello @Elsa_dP
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us.
I propose posting the job on either Airtasker or Hipages. Make sure to include as much detail as possible about the proposed job so that you'll get a good chance of a quick response. Please don't forget to ask for references so that you can see what their workmanship is like.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Can someone please suggest somebody who can bring and spread garden bark
Hi @Vikasharma,
Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.
Unfortunately, as we service both Australia and New Zealand, it is unlikely that any recommendations would be close to you.
My suggestion is to use a service such as Airtasker or Fiver to find a landscaper or handyman who can assist.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

I need to restore the decking at my house. Some joists require replacement too due to wood rot. This job is beyond my scope of capability. Does Bunnings have a list of reputable tradesmen who can help? My nearest Bunnings is in Oxenford. I’ve attached some photos os the job at hand:
Is there a small business specialising in compact ensuites?
Workshop is a friendly place to learn, get ideas and find inspiration for your home improvement projects
We would love to help with your project.
