Plumber for Geyser Installations

Plumbing work that keeps Cape Town CBD homes and buildings running: this private hospital maintenance department needs a trade-tested plumber. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The work is in Cape Town CBD, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.
