Job Description
Tired of being treated like a number on a job site?
If you've spent years in construction and you're ready for work that actually respects your experience, we want to talk to you.
Honest Lee Handyman Service is growing across the greater Sacramento area, and we're looking for a skilled handyman technician who knows their way around a job site and is done with the grind of big-crew construction: the micromanagement, the endless commute to far-flung sites, the feeling that nobody up the chain actually knows your name.
Here, you're not a number. You're the expert we send into someone's home, and we trust you to act like it.
What makes this different
Real autonomy. Once you're trained on how we operate, you run your own truck and your own schedule. You diagnose the problem, you decide the right fix, and you get it done — no supervisor breathing down your neck, no layers of approval for common-sense calls. We hire people we trust and then we get out of the way.
Your experience is the product. We built this company on a repair-over-replacement philosophy — the kind of judgment call you can only make after years of hands-on work. If you've got a mental toolbox full of "I've seen this before and here's how you actually fix it," that's exactly what our clients are paying for, and exactly what we want to pay you for.
Variety, not monotony. One day you're fixing a leaky faucet, the next you're patching drywall, hanging doors, or tackling a small electrical or carpentry job. If you like using the full range of your skills instead of doing the same repetitive task on a framing crew all day, this is a better fit.
A name people trust. "Honest" is in our name for a reason. We built our reputation on no-runaround service, and clients notice the difference. You'll be representing that name every time you walk into a home.
Room to grow. We're actively expanding and building out a cross-training program between technicians. Come in strong in one trade and we'll help you build skills in others, so your value (and your paycheck) keeps growing with the company.
What we're looking for
- Solid hands-on experience in construction, remodeling, or a skilled trade (carpentry, plumbing, electrical, drywall, painting, etc.)
- Someone who can walk into an unfamiliar problem and figure out the right solution, not just follow a script
- Comfortable working independently and managing your own time on a job
- A valid driver's license and reliable transportation
- Pride in doing quality work and treating clients' homes with respect
- Own basic hand tools (we'll talk trucks/equipment during the interview)
What you get
- Competitive pay based on experience
- Autonomy to run your own day once you're up to speed
- A steady pipeline of local work — no chasing your own leads
- A team that backs you up instead of looking over your shoulder
- The chance to grow your skill set through cross-training as the company expands
