Need a builder for a small job

I need someone to tell me if we can knock down an internal wall without making the house fall over and then, if it is ok to do so, knock down said wall. Any recommendations for someone professional who could do this small job? This is the first step in doing up our place and there may be more work down the track. Cheers Rioters.

I know this will be too late for Jujji, however, in case others read this post. I recently undertook a significant renovation (removal of walls, new bathroom and toilet, new flooring etc.) and I can’t recommend Wayne Strawford (0419 985 713) highly enough!

All of his work was excellent, he was friendly reliable and very reasonable with his pricing. I did as much work as I could myself and used Wayne for the big bits but he was always willing to talk me through how to complete parts of the work myself and was happy to add little bits and pieces on to jobs (most of which he didn’t charge for) to ensure the overall finish was of a high standard.

Hi, I’m in Ryde area. Is he close by?

How did you get on Jujji? Hard to find good honest ones here.

Hi Jujji,

I have used a local carpenter/builder named Andrew for a lot of jobs. He does good quality work and is reasonably priced.
One of the reasons I use him is that he actually turns up when he says he will. And he works on weekends so I didn’t have to take time off work.
His number is 0438410513.
