Job Description

Every day is different here: small repairs, painting and planned maintenance at the retirement village in Springs. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The work is in Springs, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What you'll actually do

  • Clear gutters and fix minor roof leaks with sealant
  • Keep the maintenance store tidy and track stock used
  • Patch, sand and paint walls, doors and ceilings between tenants
  • Service pool pumps, gate motors and garage door openers
  • Lay and repair floor tiles and re-grout wet areas
  • Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)

You'll need

  • At least 2 years of general building maintenance work you can back up with references
  • Basic painting, tiling, plumbing and carpentry skills
  • Available for the occasional weekend emergency
  • Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus
  • Code 08 licence to run errands to the hardware store

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience with a work order system on a phone app
  • Basic first aid certificate

On offer

  • On-site accommodation at some estates
  • Uniform and safety boots supplied
  • Meals on duty at hotel sites

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): references from previous maintenance jobs, highest school or trade certificate plus ID copy.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.
