I have two jobs: 1) My shower door will not close fully. It is unaligned. Someone recently replaced a piece, but it broke within weeks again. See photos. 2) I have three units that has plastic covering that has cracked. The covering needs to be sourced and replaced. The first unit is a bathroom drawer, with white plastic. The second unit is a kitchen dishwasher, and the third unit is a kitchen drawer. They both are a dark grey plastic. See photos.

@Micheal G. Great. I sent you an invite.
You have to assign the task to me before we can exchange details, and if you don't want to give me the task after I look at the job, you can put the task back up on here
@Micheal G. That time works perfectly. How do I get you my address? It was blocked.
?
@Micheal G. [content moderated]
Hi David, would between 2:30 and 3pm suit up?
@Micheal G. Hi Michael. I just wanted to check in and see if you are still available to call over tomorrow? I can be at the house at any time from 11am ....
@Micheal G. Fantastic. Thanks Michael.
I'll message you this Saturday to see if we can set up a time that suits both of us
@Micheal G. Yes. That works. I can definitely be there from anytime after 11am, on Mon Feb 2nd. Just let me know what time suits you best.
Is there anyone there after 11am on the 2nd? If not I'll pop in another day
@Micheal G. Hey. I don't know what the colour is, unfortunately. The house is rented out and not accessible between Jan 30th at 4pm to Feb 2nd at 11am. Any other days will work.
This coming weekend the 31st and 1st if that suits you. It's really just the grey colour match I need, it's very hard to tell just from the photo, iunless you know it? I'll do my best to match it
@Micheal G. As in the following weekend Feb 6th or 7th
@Micheal G. Hi Michael. That'd be great. But the house is rented out on AirBNB this weekend, so that won't work. But any weekday, or also next weekend would work. Let me know...
Matching the colour is the most difficult part, I think it's anthracite grey. I could pop in next Saturday or Sunday, if that suits you?
@Micheal G. Hi Michael. I've updated photos with exact measurements. I actually need two kitchen drawers done, not one. Can you get me a price? ????
@Micheal G. Hey Michael. I'll be back next Sat, and will get you that info. Also if you are driving by and want to take a look, that'd be no problem. I live just off Camden Street.
The smaller ones are definitely custom made, I will have to cut down a larger door and edge band them, I should be able to get two from one door. Make sure the measurements are spot on. Try and get a full front view of the dishwasher door
Sound I'll give you a price asap
@Micheal G. I'm away at the moment so can't unfortunately check. But it's definitely just a standard size, not a slim version.
Can you double check the measurements for the dishwasher door? as they are usually 600mm, or some slimline ones are 450mm
Hi Michael. That sounds right. But I'm not 100% sure, as the kitchen was installed before I purchased the house.
Hello David, sorry for the delay. Going by the measurements, they look like bespoke made to measure? One looks like high gloss white and the other two look like anthracite grey?
@Micheal G. Fantastic:))
@Micheal G. ????
Sound, I'll have a look for them
@Micheal G. Thanks for coming back to me, Michael. The measurements in mm are: Kitchen Drawer: 327 x 127 Dishwasher: 299 x 249 Bathroom Drawer: 307 x 130
Can you measure the drawer fronts? I should be able to source them for you
@Paul M. Hi Paul. I think it was the magnetic strip that was replaced. It was done in only 5 mins. It worked for a few weeks. But again it stopped working. The door doesn't fully close. It feels like the lower part of the door has dropped, as per the photo, putting out the alignment. Can you help?
What is the problem with it?
@Paul M. Only the magnet strip was replaced. It was done in just a minute or two ....
What part of the shower door was replaced? Hinge? Or magnetic strip where it closes?
@Paul M. OK. Thanks for the information.
The plastic laminate that's stuck on the surface of the cabinet door and drawers is stuck on in a factory, the only way to repair it is with some glue but it won't be the same as the original. If you very fussy about it you need to get new doors.
It’s more then two jobs and I wouldn’t say it’s easy
