Maintenance Jobs & Property Maintenance Work in Southport
Orange Projects is continually looking to connect with reliable maintenance workers and handymen who service Southport. Our maintenance side runs on repeat work for real estate agencies, landlords and commercial clients, so we need people who can be trusted in an occupied property without supervision.
Orange Projects is a QBCC licensed renovation, carpentry and property maintenance company based on the Gold Coast. Licence No. 15620733.
The work that comes up in Southport
Southport is the busiest patch we work in. Between the CBD office towers, the older post-war houses through the back streets and the newer unit blocks near the Broadwater, there is a constant mix of residential and commercial work inside a very small radius. If you live locally you can often get to three jobs in a morning without touching the M1.
- Reactive repairs in tenanted houses and units: doors, locks, screens, cabinetry, leaking taps, general make-safe.
- Pre-lease and vacate repairs booked around agency timeframes.
- Commercial reactive maintenance in CBD offices, retail tenancies and strata common areas.
- Planned maintenance rounds where the same buildings come up on a cycle.
Travel and your patch
Southport sits in the middle of our maintenance run, so most days are a tight loop through Labrador, Ashmore, Molendinar and Main Beach with the odd call further out.
What we look for from people in Southport
People who turn up when they say they will, photograph their work, and can talk to a tenant or a property manager without it turning into a phone call for us later.
Before you start with us
- White card and any licence relevant to your work.

- Willingness to keep clear notes and photos on maintenance jobs.
Common questions
Do you have maintenance work in Southport right now?
We do not advertise vacancies we do not have. Orange Projects keeps an ongoing register of maintenance workers by area, and Southport is a suburb we work in regularly. Registering puts you on the list we call from when work is confirmed.
Do I have to live in Southport?
No. We dispatch by area rather than by address, so what matters is the patch you are happy to cover. Tell us your suburbs when you register and we will keep you close to home where we can.
Employment or subcontract?
Both are available. Employees and casuals work to hours and a run sheet we set. Subcontractors need an ABN and current public liability insurance, and work to an agreed scope or rate.
What do I need before I can start?
A white card, reliable transport and your own tools as a minimum, plus any licence required for the work you carry out in your own right. Subcontractors also need an ABN and insurance certificates on file.
