You support repair and restoration projects from start to finish by executing hands‑on repair work, maintaining job site standards, and ensuring work is completed safely and accurately. You take ownership of your work environment, follow established scopes of work, and communicate clearly to keep projects moving forward. Whether completing punch list items, assisting with demolition, or responding to after‑hours service needs, you approach each task with professionalism, accountability, and attention to detail.

• Perform light carpentry, framing, drywall, paint, trim, punch list work, and other common repair activities
• Prepare rooms and work areas for repair activities, including staging setup, equipment placement, and content protection
• Maintain clean, organized, and secure job sites, including proper storage of tools, equipment, and supplies
