Details

I would like to convert my pre-existing shed into a summer house. I already have two doors and a couple of beams but need someone to supply the rest, assemble the frame and attached onto the pre existing shed. Please see diagram, things coloured red are materials required. Sorry for the poor photos. New doors to be fitted on current long side. Need two additional beams to hinge the doors off and a top one across. Also 2 felted OSB boards for roof as and maybe 2 more for parts of the sides. Be good to do this Monday or Thursday next week when weather is good.

Hi Sam, Here is my offer finally :) Regards, Ben

Questions(1)

Hi Sam, Happy to do this for you. The Airtasker fee means that if you pay 200, I will receive 150. And it's not enough for me to be happy to do the job and do a great job and put heaps of time into it. Is 200 your budget, happy to do it fo 200 if you are happy to pay this? Regards, Ben

Also, Tuesday is good for me. Happy to bring my tools and come first thing in the morning. Do you have a local DIY shop? And are you hoping to help or leave me to it?

Tuesday would be great. We have a B&Q and a wicks a short drive away. I will be working at home but will need to leave you to it

Great stuff Sam, if you give me a couple of hours to do some research before I commit, shed can be a bit of a pain to work on. I built a teepee the other day and it took 12 hours. If you look at my reviews though, the lady was really happy. In fact she has asked me back to do other work. I am planning to do it though on Tuesday for you, but just want to check some material prices.

Hi Sam, yes, happy to do this for you on Tuesday. :)

Do you want to put in an offer and I’ll accept?

Oh hi Sam, yes, I forgot to do this. Arghhhh soryy :)

Hi there I am not sure you could do this job for 50 as the materials alone will probably cost that. Do you want to amend your offer to suit that? Do you have a van to transport them as well. I estimate you will need 3-4 large OSB boards and maybe 4 beams

Hi Sam, Yes so sorry for not responding. My car has been making a terrible grinding noise which is not gone. I'm back on the road and able to come over and sort this all out for you if you would like. What's the p/code and no? And you can give me a time and day :) Only if you still need it doing of course! Regards, Ben

Hi Ben yes it still needs doing can you do Friday? Also will you be able to transport the material in your car, the OSB boards will be big, they are 2400mm by 600mm and I recon we might need 3 - 4 of them?

Hi Sam, yes I can do Friday. I can carry them yes. It's only a small car but I am forever using it with the boot lid open and tying things down.

I have some Roof Felt so I can bring that which will save a few pounds.

Do you want to change your offer to 100? I have a coupon so no skin off my nose and it will cover all materials

How much would you like to pay in total including the voucher?

Sam O.poster

I recon it will cost about 80 in materials so that + how ever much you want to do it?

Sam O.poster

So maybe 150 if you were happy with that?

Hey Sam, sorry for the late response. I'm having issues with my account. I can't make an offer because it just comes up with a white box, it's weird but i've emailed AirTasker to sort it because it's stopped me with a few jobs. Are you hoping to use a voucher or a code? I'm happy to come over and do the whole thing, for 160. But if I make you an offer 25 percent goes to AirTasker. I spoke to them recently and they are actually dropping this rate soon because it's so high. You are welcome to give me your p/code and a time and I'll be there in my red car :) Happy to do it like this.

Ugh i'm think AirTasker is having serious issues.

Sam O.poster

Okay might need to wait for pay day / November for this now as had less money than I thought but I’d be happy to pay partly in the voucher (just cos I need to use it) and the rest in cash if that’s cool? I will be in touch in a couple of weeks to re book it in, hopefully the would have dropped the 25% thing by then

Sam O.poster

Also, once Airtasker is sorted, please amend your offer to 100 and I’ll accept and we can book it in for just after pay day 😁
