About this role
Body and Paint Technician
2302 Rd 125, St. Marys, ON N4X 1C9, Canada
The Opportunity: If you?re a body and paint technician looking for work that goes beyond the typical collision lineup, this shop offers something genuinely different. At All?Equip, you?ll handle damage repairs and full refurbishments on heavy trucks and fleet equipment, finish the bodywork on custom builds, and put the final coat on purpose?built trailers coming off our Platinum Trailers manufacturing line. It?s varied, skilled work in a shop that respects the trade and builds things worth being proud of.
Work Arrangement: Full?Time, Fully On?site, Monday to Friday, day shift depending on production needs. This is hands?on assembly work in a busy manufacturing environment.
Compensation: This is a hourly position paying $28-$36/hr depending on experience, plus a comprehensive benefits package including Extended Health Care, Dental, and RRSP contributions. Overtime is available for those who want it.
About Us: All-Equip is a family-owned manufacturer with a genuine entrepreneurial spirit: if it moves, hauls, or solves a problem in the transportation sector, we?ll find a way to build it. Founded in 2011, we?ve grown into a recognized leader in both trailer manufacturing and heavy equipment repair and service, and it?s that repair experience that gives us a real edge. We?ve seen what fails in the field, what holds up under pressure, and what the competition consistently gets wrong. That knowledge is baked into everything we do.

The Role: As our Body & Paint Technician, your work spans the full range of what a shop can throw at you. You?ll handle collision and damage repairs, full equipment refurbishments, and the bodywork on custom builds ? vehicles being built or rebuilt for a specific purpose that don?t always follow a standard recipe. You?ll also be part of the finishing process on new trailer builds coming off our Platinum Trailers manufacturing line, giving you exposure to OEM?level production work that most paint shops never see.
In a typical week, you?ll move between fleet repairs, surface prep, and finish coats on new builds. The workload shifts with the shop?s production schedule ? so no two weeks looks the same, and that?s by design.
Key Responsibilities :
• Perform collision and damage repairs on heavy trucks, trailers, and fleet equipment ? panel work, dent repair, and structural straightening. • Conduct surface preparation including sanding, masking, priming, and filling to achieve a consistent, paint?ready finish. • Apply primer and finish coats across a range of work ? collision repairs, full refurbishments, custom builds, and new trailer production finishing. • Match colours accurately and maintain a consistent, high?quality finish standard across every job. • Work across steel, aluminum, and fibreglass, adapting technique and product selection to each material. • Communicate clearly with the shop team on job status, materials needs, and work sequencing. • Maintain a clean, organized workspace with proper ventilation and PPE ? safety standards are non?negotiable. • Support and mentor apprentices ? sharing knowledge, guiding technique, and helping them grow in the trade. • Support the broader shop team with additional tasks as needed ? this is a team?first environment.
