Build a Career in the Skilled Trades
Are you dependable, hardworking, and interested in building a long-term career in home repair and remodeling?
Mr. Handyman is hiring a Handyman Helper / Apprentice to assist our experienced technicians on larger projects while learning the skills needed to become a full-service handyman technician.
This is more than a helper position. Our goal is to train and develop the right person so they can eventually run their own service calls, complete home repair projects independently, and grow their income and career with our company.

As a Handyman Helper / Apprentice, you will:
- Assist experienced technicians with larger home repair, remodeling, and maintenance projects
- Help load, unload, organize, and maintain tools and materials
- Prepare job sites and protect customers’ homes before work begins
- Complete demolition, cleanup, material handling, and project-support tasks
- Perform smaller repairs and maintenance tasks independently as your skills develop
- Learn proper repair and installation methods from experienced technicians
- Communicate professionally and respectfully with customers
- Keep work areas, tools, and company vehicles clean and organized
- Follow company safety procedures and quality standards
- Take on greater responsibility as your knowledge and abilities improve

Projects may include:
- Drywall repair and installation
- Interior and exterior painting
- Door and window repairs
- Trim and finish carpentry
- Deck and fence repairs
- Flooring installation and repairs
- Tile and bathroom repairs
- Cabinet and hardware installation
- Siding, soffit, and fascia repairs

- Motivated to learn a skilled trade
- Comfortable working with their hands
- Able to follow instructions and accept coaching
- Honest, respectful, and professional
- Able to work independently after receiving proper training
- Comfortable working indoors and outdoors
- Able to safely use ladders and basic hand and power tools
- Able to lift and carry construction materials and equipment
- Focused on providing excellent customer service
- Interested in growing into a full handyman technician position
Previous construction, maintenance, remodeling, painting, carpentry, or handyman experience is helpful, but we are willing to train the right person with a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn.
Requirements
- Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record
- Reliable transportation to and from work
- Ability to pass a background check
- Ability to lift approximately 50 pounds
- Ability to work from ladders and in different weather conditions
- Basic knowledge of hand and power tools is preferred

- Hands-on training with experienced home-service technicians
- Opportunities to learn multiple repair and remodeling trades

A successful apprentice will gradually begin completing smaller jobs independently and working toward becoming a full-service technician capable of managing customer projects from start to finish.
