Hanson Land & Sea launches Land & Sea Property Care A year-round maintenance partner now for qathet properties
For qathet property owners — homeowners, businesses, strata councils and municipal operators alike — keeping on top of maintenance usually means juggling a stack of business cards, a calendar full of reminders and the hope that nothing breaks between visits. Land & Sea Property Care takes that concern off the owner’s mind. The new division launched April 1 as a focused, standalone business; its only job is looking after buildings over their full life. It does so with the trade relationships, building knowledge and local reputation that its parent, Hanson Land & Sea, has spent years nurturing across the entire Sunshine Coast. Managing director Tom Wojtusik noticed the need shortly after moving to the region three years ago. A property is a living thing and keeping it healthy takes more than the occasional repair — it’s knowing what’s due and when, finding the right trade, specifying the job, scheduling, following up and keeping records. “That’s the job we do,” he says.
