Posted 27/11/18

Busy homeowner Michelle holds down parenting, full-time work and studying towards her PhD. She shares with us how she used Builderscrack to outsource her housework so she could focus on the important stuff... How It Started To say Michelle is a driven person is an understatement. Sitting across from a woman that packs so much into her days is inspiring, not only because of that drive but the clever way she has arranged her life to make it possible. She tells me "I’m doing a full-time PhD and I’m doing full-time work, so for me, I have lots to do and absolutely no time. I also have a teenager who’s almost 16, who is extremely social. Every weekend there are at least five to seven friends invited, and they are having a sleepover. I come home, and I'm like, “I left it nice and tidy, what happened?”. Michelle and her son moved into their home three years ago, and with a laugh explains “how things were starting to fall apart and in need of repair”. It wasn't only hard finding the tim

No TV signal & hdmi cable issues

Posted 1 week ago

After the lighting storm on Sunday all TVs have no signal. Suspect antenna or electrical wiring issue. Also one TV not receiving an HDMI signal from surround sound receiver. Cable may be faulty and may require testing. Long cable is feed through walls and ceiling so not easily replaced. Also need new 4K capable hdmi cable for TV in family room. Existing cable is threaded internally within the wall.

Our home has been completely rewired, but was not signed off. Friend of a friend - won’t do that again! We just need one light installed and the final sign off done. As soon as possible as we want to get our house on the market in the next week or so.
