Paving Layer (Interlocking Pavers)

Put your trade to work on the residential renovation company in Lephalale, with steady work for the length of the project. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Location: Lephalale, Limpopo. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

• Mix mortar and plaster to the right ratio for the job
• Clean your tools and sweep your work area before knocking off
• Carry bricks and materials to the workface and keep the scaffold clear
