Safety Upgrades: Install grab bars, ramps, and other accessibility modifications to support seniors.

Maintenance: Perform seasonal home tune-ups and basic plumbing/electrical fixes (e.g., changing fixtures, fixing toilets).

Customer Connection: Build trust with clients through clear communication, respectful behavior, and "clean-as-you-go" professionalism.

Experienced: 3-5+ years of paid experience in home repairs, remodeling, or a specialized trade.

Skilled: Proficient in using hand and power tools safely and effectively.

Reliable: You show up on time, every time, and take pride in doing the job right the first time.

Empathetic: You enjoy helping people and can communicate effectively with seniors and their families.

Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record.

Reliable and presentable transportation.

Full set of basic tools including drill, impact, saw and other carpentry-related tools.

Consistency: Stable, year-round work with a predictable schedule (no chasing leads).

Support: A dedicated office team to handle scheduling, billing, and logistics so you can focus on the craft.
