What jobs can I post on WeeJobs?

WeeJobs is live in Causeway Coast and Glens for practical local work, from the small jobs on your kitchen list to repairs that need a proper quote. Posting is free. You describe the work, approved local tradespeople and helpers show interest, and you choose who suits the job. Nobody needs to guess from a title that only says “help wanted”.

The best category is the one that describes the work, not necessarily the room it is in. A kitchen could need cleaning, a plumber or a new light fitting. Split unrelated tasks if they need different skills. If several small tasks form one sensible visit, list them together and explain every part.

The ten trades you can browse

Handyman

Handymen can help with general repairs and fittings such as shelves, curtain rails or a sticking door. Mention the wall type if you know it and whether you already have the parts. Do not assume general repair experience includes specialist electrical or gas work.

Plumber

Plumbers deal with jobs such as leaking taps and replacing household fittings. Describe where water appears and when the problem happens. Photos of accessible pipework help, but do not dismantle anything to investigate it. Ask about the registration needed for gas appliances separately.

Electrician

Electricians can assess electrical faults, light fittings and sockets. Explain the symptoms and location. Take photos only where safe, without opening covers or touching wiring. Check the competence, qualifications and any certification required for your particular work before agreeing it.

Painter and decorator

Painters and decorators can help with rooms, woodwork and touch-ups. Include the size and condition of the surfaces, not just the colour you want. Peeling paint, filling and preparation affect the job. Say who will supply paint and move furniture.

Gardener

Gardeners can look at tidy-ups, hedge trimming and garden maintenance. Show the whole garden and the areas needing work. Explain access, slopes and whether waste needs taking away. Make clear what should stay, especially plants you want to keep.

Cleaner

Cleaners can help with household cleaning and moving-out jobs. List the rooms and tasks rather than assuming a “deep clean” means the same to everyone. Agree products, equipment and any tenancy requirements before the visit, and mention sensitive surfaces or pets.

House clearance

House clearance teams can remove unwanted household items. List what needs to go and photograph large or awkward pieces. Explain stairs and parking, and check disposal arrangements and any waste carrier registration required. Flag hazardous materials rather than assuming they can be collected.

Odd jobs

Odd job helpers cover small tasks that do not fit neatly elsewhere. Describe lifting, tools or materials involved. A clear list helps someone decide whether they can tackle the whole job safely. Specialist work still needs someone with the right competence.

Flat-pack assembly

Flat-pack assemblers can build wardrobes, desks and other furniture. Include the model or product details, where the boxes are and whether any parts are missing. Mention wall securing and the manufacturer's instructions so suitable fixings and skills can be agreed.

Joiner

Joiners can help with timber fittings and repairs. Explain the item, its condition and the finish you want. Photos and rough measurements give a starting point, while a visit may be needed before materials or a firm price can be confirmed.

Jobs that need a quote first

Some work cannot sensibly be priced from a photograph. Say when you need a quote or site visit, and include what you know about the scope, materials, access and timing. Agree the price and any exclusions before work begins. A rough estimate is guidance, not a promise about the final cost.

Jobs WeeJobs cannot help with

Do not wait for app replies in an emergency. Use the appropriate emergency or urgent professional service. Unsafe or illegal work does not belong on WeeJobs. Regulated work needs the relevant qualifications and registrations; being approved on the app does not replace those checks.
