Apartment Maintenance Technician Duties and Responsibilities
While an apartment maintenance technician’s day-to-day duties and responsibilities are determined by where they work, there are many core tasks associated with the role. Based on our analysis of job listings, these include:
Repair Plumbing Fixtures Apartment maintenance technicians commonly repair issues with plumbing systems. They replace or install faucets, toilets, and hot water tanks. Apartment technicians also fix garbage disposals, dishwashers, water-dispensing refrigerators, and washing machines, which are all are affected by plumbing issues.
Electrical Repair Electrical repair is another key responsibility for apartment maintenance technicians. They repair and replace power switches, fuses, and wall sockets. Technicians also troubleshoot electrically powered appliances such as ceiling lights, ceiling fans, climate control systems, and garage doors.
Painting and Drywall Repair Applying new coats of paint to minor touch ups and damage repair on walls is a common task for apartment maintenance technicians. They keep apartments visually appealing by using drywall to fill in small holes and cover up normal wear and tear. When renters change apartment units, maintenance technicians add a fresh coat of paint to get the apartment ready for a new tenant.
HVAC Repair Maintenance technicians are also responsible for fixing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. When these systems fail at apartment complexes, they are immediately called upon to help make residents comfortable again. In some cases, a maintenance technician may need to replace an HVAC system all together.
Managing Property Exterior Appearance Apartment maintenance technicians are responsible for helping an apartment complex maintain an attractive appearance at all times. They address many aspects of community presentation, including picking up trash and fixing any needed outdoor repairs. Maintenance technicians also mow grass, pull weeds, remove leaves, trim trees, and water lawns. They replace light bulbs to keep outdoor pathways well lit.
Apartment Maintenance Technician Skills and Qualifications
Apartment maintenance technicians should have a strong working knowledge of plumbing, electrical, and general mechanics.

- Communication skills – apartment maintenance technicians need healthy interpersonal and communication skills to communicate solutions to apartment residents and follow up on repairs

Apartment Maintenance Technician Education and Training
It is common for apartment maintenance technicians to have a high school diploma, as well as licensing and trade certification for the repairs they complete. Employers seek candidates with technician related certifications such as HVAC or EPA Universal. Employers also prefer candidates that have hands-on experience in plumbing, electrical systems, carpentry, and ventilation systems. Specialist training in areas such as electrical wiring and plumbing can make candidates even more attractive.
