Hire A Hubby Property Maintenance Franchise for Sale Pukekohe South
Steve and Imogen are not just selling a business. They are handing over nearly 20 years of community trust, personal relationships, and a reputation that has been built one job at a time across one of New Zealand's most vibrant and fastest-growing areas. Pukekohe is not anonymous. It is a place where people know each other, recommend each other, and where a great attitude and a smile will take you as far as any skill set.
Steve came to Hire A Hubby in 2004 with a career that had taken him from landscaping for London Transport to managing painting crews for luxury hotels in the Bahamas. He found in Pukekohe exactly what he was looking for: work that used every skill he had, a community worth belonging to, and a lifestyle he and Imogen could build together. Nearly two decades later, they have done all of that — and more.
Steve's medical situation means it is time to hang up the tool belt and pass this to someone new. He and Imogen are heading into their next chapter — full-time goat rescue and holiday home rental. They are hoping to find a buyer who will bring the same warmth, energy, and community spirit to Pukekohe that they have given for 19 years.

About the Sellers:
Steve started his working life as a landscape gardener for London Transport — building ornate gardens and ponds across the city. He moved to the Bahamas as foreman for hotel painting crews, working on large hotel chains and executive residences. He arrived in New Zealand in 2004 and immediately saw Hire A Hubby as the perfect fit: a chance to work for himself, keep learning new skills, and build something in what was then a country area — and has since become one of NZ's fastest-growing communities. He and Imogen have been woven into the fabric of Pukekohe ever since.
Ideal Buyer:
A friendly, outgoing person who wants to become a well-known, trusted figure in Pukekohe. Steve puts it simply: Pukekohe is a word-of-mouth town. If you can work with a smile and a great attitude, you will have a great life here. You don't need a specific trade background — you need to genuinely like people, take pride in your work, and be ready to become part of a community that rewards exactly that.
