Plumbers, Drainlayers, Roofer & Operators – Hadlee & Brunton want you!

Are you over being in and out of lockdown and would you consider a change of lifestyle for you and your family?

Hadlee & Brunton (H&B) are looking for certified plumbers, drainlayers & roofers, machine operators and water reticulation specialists to join our team in Timaru. H&B are a family owned and operated business and have been operating in the South Canterbury region for over 115 years. We specialise in the smaller domestic plumbing, drainage & roofing maintenance jobs, but also tackle the larger water, sewer and stormwater civil infrastructure jobs with various installation methodologies such as horizontal directional drilling, pipe lining and pipe bursting.

Timaru is an ideal area to consider relocating too because it’s easy living and it only takes 5 minutes to get anywhere in town. During the weekend and on your time off, you could fish the lakes, snowboard and surf all in one day if you really wanted since it the city is central to all things outdoors. The hydro lakes and over half a dozen ski fields are within an hour’s drive. Other activities that are easily accessible are white water rafting, kayaking, fishing, hunting, horse riding, hiking, mountain biking, sailing and a big selection of affordable quality golf courses to name a few.

If you want bigger city shopping Timaru is located between Christchurch and Dunedin which are only a 2 hour drive away.

In addition to the various activities that are right on our doorstep, housing is very affordable. The average house value for the Timaru District in the year to March 2021 is $437,000. Prices for premium top end properties in prime locations range at about $850,000 to $1 million. There is a great range of rural lifestyle properties within a 10 minute drive of town with incredible views. Entry level housing for a basic ownership unit begins at about $280,000, while most real estate market activity is in the price range between $350,000 and $550,000.

The best thing about Timaru is the opportunities for your family, it’s a fantastic and safe place to raise kids and you can actually spend time with them at either end of the day as opposed to sitting stressed out in traffic. You can buy a much nicer, larger house with outdoor living for the price of a crappy Auckland shoebox located in an unsavoury neighbourhood and have money to spare. The kids can safely walk / bike to school and you’ll find your neighbours will actually talk to you
