Overview

Are you a skilled carpenter or home improvement specialist who loves doing great work, but hates the hassle of running a business? We are looking for a Part-Time Craftsman Carpenter to help residential and commercial clients with a wide range of repair, maintenance, and improvement projects. In this role, you get the best of both worlds: complete independence out in the field, supported by an established office team that handles all marketing, scheduling, customer service, and billing for you.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role means being a dependable problem-solver who takes pride in quality work. Day-to-day, you will dispatch directly from your home to customer sites, arriving on time and prepared to tackle varied small-to-medium repair and carpentry projects. Over time, success looks like building strong customer trust, delivering high-quality repairs safely and efficiently, and enjoying a steady, flexible schedule without administrative stress.

Key Responsibilities

  • Complete home repairs and improvements, including general carpentry, door installations, drywall patching, tile work, and light plumbing or electrical repairs.
  • Evaluate customer requests on-site, explain options clearly, and provide accurate estimates for time and materials when necessary.
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and professional job site from start to finish.
  • Communicate clearly with customers to ensure project details match their expectations.
  • Use our mobile dispatch app to view your daily schedule, track job progress, upload photos, and update project notes.

What You Need to Succeed (Must-Haves)

  • Proven experience in residential remodeling, general carpentry, or professional home maintenance.
  • A reliable truck, van, or SUV capable of hauling tools and materials.
  • Your own set of standard hand and power tools in good working condition.
  • A valid driver’s license with a clean driving record.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills and the confidence to work independently in the field.
  • Clear, polite communication and a professional, customer-focused attitude.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Advanced skills in specialized trades such as tiling, painting, trim carpentry, or basic electrical and plumbing work.
  • Previous experience using digital dispatching, scheduling, or work-order mobile applications.

What We Offer

  • Consistent W2 Employment: Enjoy regular, year-round part-time work without the uncertainty of 1099 freelancing.
  • Direct Dispatch: Start your day directly from home and travel straight to your assigned jobs.
  • Administrative Support: Our dedicated back-office team handles all customer acquisition, scheduling, invoicing, and follow-ups so you can focus strictly on your craft.
  • Flexible Work Schedule: A part-time schedule that fits your availability.
  • Professional Environment: Work with a team that respects your skills, values your time, and treats you like a professional.
