Tired of crawling through trenches or being stuck on massive sites? This is clean, smart residential work where you run your own day. Perfect for a plumber who wants variety, work-life balance, and guaranteed weekly pay.

Sick of big sites, bad culture, or doing the same thing every day?

This one’s for the plumber who wants a better gig, focused around work-life balance.

We’re Buildfix — an highly specialised building repair company doing things a bit differently. We’re after an experienced, switched-on tradie who wants to work independently, manage their own day, and be part of a company that respects your time and effort.

You’ll mostly be locating underground services and doing the odd plumbing fix before our repair teams get started. No trench digging, no crawling through sewers — just clean, smart work supporting small residential jobs around metro Sydney (plus the odd trip to Newcastle or Canberra with all expenses covered).

If you’re someone who likes being trusted to do your job well without a boss breathing down your neck — keep reading...

What’s on offer

Full autonomy — plan your day and get the job done your way

Company vehicle & fuel — take it home, no out-of-pocket travel

All tools provided — including CAT4 locator, Ridgid See Snake and RAMJET gear

Great culture — no egos, no nonsense, just a solid team

Work variety — every job is different, and you won’t be stuck on the same site for weeks

National brand — we’re growing fast with long-term career opportunities if you want them

Paid travel — for occasional regional/interstate jobs

About the role

Use locating equipment (CAT4 and Ridgid See Snakes) to identify and mark underground services

Read site plans and DBYD info to safely prep each site

Do minor plumbing tasks: fixing small leaks, clearing blockages, reconnecting pipes

Keep an eye on underground services during our foundation repair work

Write plumbing reports for the teams and office

Keep your gear in good nick and communicate clearly with the office

Who this suits

Experienced, qualified plumber who wants work-life balance

Knows their way around a CAT4/Ridgid, or keen to be trained on them

Comfortable doing basic plumbing (no rough-ins, just service work)

Clean, professional, and respectful with homeowner clients

Likes working solo but happy to be part of a bigger team

Holds a full driver’s licence and is happy to travel interstate/rural occasionally

What this job isn’t

It’s not a subcontractor role — you’ll be part of the team with all the regular full-time benefits

It’s not a full plumbing role — just light service work around our main structural repair jobs

It’s not a fit for someone who needs constant direction — we’ll train you, but you’ll run your own day and manage clients.
