Have you ever wondered what a morning looks like for a technician? Meet Darren, he's a multi-skilled technician in our Responsive Repairs team. Here's what he says about a typical morning at Havebury. "In this role, flexibility is key, as no two jobs are the same, so I must have tools and parts for different repair jobs. My scheduler releases the jobs for the day to me first thing in the morning so I can quickly glance over where I am and what jobs need to be completed. I also take special notice of any specific requests, such as before midday or avoiding the school run times, to ensure I fit my day around these requirements. My days vary; some days, I have a full day of inspections, where a resident has reported an issue, and I go and find out more about the job. If it’s an issue I can fix there and then I will do it. This saves the resident the inconvenience of a follow-up appointment. Before each appointment, I notify the resident that I am on my way. If they don’t answer, I will still head to their home. When I get to a resident’s home, I will look to understand the reported repair fully. I will then explain my planned solution and log the details on our system. In the case of an inspection, if I can perform the repair there and then, I often have what I need in my van, but when I don’t, I will explain this to the residents and let them know the next steps. After I have completed the repair, I will inform the resident what I have done and make sure they are happy, and I will update our system, which will close off the job. If I have used parts from the van, I will make a note to replenish the stock at the next opportunity. I am then off to the next repair or inspection. What I love about my role is its unpredictability and the immense job satisfaction it brings. I am dedicated to assisting residents in their homes, including looking at any other repairs they may have to see if I can help".

Organisation is key when fitting off a job on time. If you are not organised then the job won’t get done as efficiently as possible. When it comes to a fit-off, our employees always make sure they have the right material and the tools to pursue the job in an orderly manner. You can’t expect to do a job swiftly and effectively if you are not organised.  #maintenance #propertymaintenance #maintenanceplumber #maintenancetechnician #highmaintenance #lowmaintenance #maintenanceservices

On the occasion of today's Shift Workers Day, we would like to recognize the hard work and dedication of people who work in shift operations. 🕐🔄 At #Stabilus, we also have colleagues in various global locations who work around the clock to ensure that our production runs smoothly and making motion control safe and easy each and every day. We would like to take this opportunity to introduce Dominik Braun. He works as a shift supervisor in Koblenz and has answered a few questions we asked about his work. 💬 ➡️ In which area do you work? “I'm working in DESM (maintenance) as a shift supervisor and VEFK for the company's electricians since September 2023. But I also worked as a maintenance technician in shift operation before.” ➡️ How do you experience shift work? “To me shift work offers flexibility, but it is also challenging” ➡️ What advantages do you see in shift work? “The advantages of shift work are that you can plan your private appointments better without taking any leave. My wife can also attend appointments in the morning and I can look after our daughter if I have a late shift, for example. It sometimes requires some compromises, but overall it's quite manageable.” With today's topic in mind: Thanks to Dominik and to all shift workers worldwide - not just today, but every day! 🙏 #YourMotionOurSolution #MotionControl #ShiftWorkDay

Heavy Duty Hauling: What You Need To Know There are many occasions when a business may require heavy-duty hauling, such as when large equipment is needed for a particular job. Here, we will describe the basics of this type of transportation. First, let's discuss what is meant by the label "heavy". Any vehicle or piece of equipment weighing over 5,000 pounds is typically considered a candidate for heavy-duty hauling. Here, the technician is required to load, secure, and correctly transport a vehicle while maintaining its safety and the safety of others on the road. In circumstances where the equipment being transported is in excess of 10,000 pounds, the operator will need advanced training and certification to remain compliant with local regulations. These loads are typically moved on a flatbed to ensure a successful move. Some states require transporters to obtain a permit prior to the move, but this varies from state to state, leaving this responsibility on the shoulders of the towing and transport company. We offer heavy-duty hauling services in Smyrna and the surrounding areas. Call to schedule a heavy-duty move with a reliable towing and transport company that has earned the respect of the community. #HeavyDutyHauling #SmyrnaTowingAndTransport
