Are you a skilled handyman who’s confident working on a ladder? We’re looking for an experienced handyman who is comfortable working both indoors and outdoors. You’ll handle tasks like gutter cleaning, siding repair, shutter reattachment, soffit replacement, and holiday light installation—often on 3-story townhomes. This is not a roofing job, but we do need someone who’s steady and capable at heights.
Candidates must also have 10+ years of experience across at least 5 trade disciplines, such as drywall repair, carpentry, painting, minor/out-of-wall electrical and plumbing, flooring, concrete, finish carpentry, masonry, welding, and more. Ideal candidates will have their own ladders and a strong background in home repairs, both inside and out.
Craftsman Benefits:
Monday–Friday schedule, 8 AM–5 PM – No weekend work unless you request it
Positive, team-focused work environment
Path to a long-term, high-paying career
Locally owned business backed by the trusted Ace Hardware brand
Competitive pay, performance bonuses, and vacation pay
W-2 employee status with the flexibility of an independent role
Vehicle and tool allowances provided
Travel time is reimbursed
Service Area:
This position primarily serves the Eastern Shore of Maryland, from Rock Hall to Cambridge and from Kent Island to the Delaware state line. On occasion, you may be asked to assist with jobs in Annapolis or southern Delaware.
Who We’re Looking For:
You’re someone who:
Enjoys home repairs and is comfortable working on ladders up to 3 stories
Owns ladders and tools appropriate to your trade skills
Has a reliable truck or van that is presentable and suitable for transporting tools and materials
Takes pride in craftsmanship and customer service
Wants consistent hours, a stable paycheck, and a great work culture
Brings ladder competency to the team—a skill set we are currently missing
Can pass a background check
Required Experience & Skill Set:
We are seeking a highly experienced handyman with 10+ years of hands-on experience across at least 5 different trade disciplines. Candidates should be confident working independently on a wide range of repair and improvement tasks both inside and outside the home.
You must have proven proficiency and practical experience in at least five of the following areas:
Carpentry (rough and finish)
Drywall repair and finishing
Painting (interior/exterior)
Minor electrical (non-structural/out-of-wall)
Minor plumbing (non-structural/out-of-wall)
Flooring installation or repair
Concrete patching or flatwork
Masonry or brick repair
Gutter and downspout work
Siding and shutter repair
Light fixture installation or holiday lighting
Welding or metalwork
Tools & Equipment:
Candidates are expected to own tools appropriate to the trades they claim expertise in. You don’t need every tool under the sun, but you should come equipped with the tools necessary to complete the types of jobs you're hired to perform—both safely and professionally.
Additional Qualifications:
Problem solver – You troubleshoot quickly and act professionally
Great communicator – You keep customers and team members in the loop
Professional appearance – Clean-cut, organized, and respectful of property
Sales mindset – You notice other small fixes and suggest additional work to help customers maintain their homes
If you’re ready to bring your ladder, tools, and experience to a stable, supportive team—without the physical demands of roofing work—we’d love to hear from you.
