Need a trade rather than labour? Carpentry, painting, drywall, tiling and flooring are booked separately.
You are not charged anything now. We confirm the crew before any work starts.
What Gophers do on these jobs
- Second and third set of hands for your trades
- Material handling and stocking floors
- Carrying, holding, staging and fetching
- Site setup and end-of-day breakdown
- Covering a call-out or a no-show
- Surge weeks and deadline pushes
Worth knowing. Gophers work under your direction on site. They do not perform licensed trade work — see the work we turn down.
