Day-to-day operating brief

What Handyperson work looks like in practice

A Property Handyperson completes minor repairs and adjustments in managed homes, offices and communal areas. Terms should list permitted tasks, competency limits, keys, appointments, tenant privacy, tools, materials, isolation boundaries and escalation to qualified trades. The worker should not undertake gas, complex electrical or structural work without the required competence, diagnose beyond evidence or enter an occupied property outside authorised access arrangements. Before drilling or opening finishes, the work order should identify known services, asbestos information and any permit or isolation required. A temporary make-safe action needs a visible warning, follow-on owner and deadline; it should not disappear from the system because the immediate call was marked attended.

Responsibilities reflected in the contract
