Skilled trades, maintenance and repair

Tile setter

Tile setters prepare surfaces and install ceramic, porcelain, stone, and glass tile on floors, walls, and wet areas. Most of the skill sits in the preparation: a substrate that is not flat, waterproofed, or properly primed will show up as lippage, cracking, or a failed shower long after the job is finished. Layout decisions at the start determine how the finished work reads.

Painter and decorator

Painters and decorators prepare surfaces and apply paint, coatings, wallcoverings, and finishes to buildings and structures. Preparation is the bulk of the work: filling, sanding, masking, and priming decide how the finish looks and how long it lasts. Industrial and marine coatings work is a distinct branch with its own surface preparation and inspection requirements.

Auto body repair technician

Auto body repair technicians restore damaged vehicles to their structural and cosmetic condition, straightening or replacing panels and structural sections and refinishing the result. The work combines measurement-driven structural repair on a bench or frame rack with the eye-and-hand craft of panel shaping, filling, and paint matching. Mixed materials such as aluminium and high-strength steel each have their own approved repair methods.

Custodian

Custodians keep buildings clean, stocked, secure, and safe to occupy, working in schools, hospitals, offices, and public facilities. Beyond routine cleaning, the role usually includes minor repairs, setting up rooms, clearing snow or waste, and being the person who notices when something in the building is wrong. Shifts are often early, late, or overnight so the work does not disrupt occupants.
