Handyman Connection of Coraopolis, PA

Moon Township, PA • On-site

$35 - $50/hr

Full-time

Re-posted 25 days ago

Job description

Benefits:
  • Free uniforms
  • Competitive salary
  • Flexible schedule

Do Less Paperwork. Do More of What You're Good At.
If you're a skilled craftsperson who's tired of chasing estimates, sourcing materials, or juggling the administrative side of running a trade business Handyman Connection of Moon Township wants to talk to you.
We handle the back office, so you don't have to. You show up, do quality work, and get paid. It's that simple.
This is where we're different. When you work with Handyman Connection, our office team takes care of:
- **Estimating & quoting**  we price the jobs for you
- **Materials**  we order them, pay for them, and have them ready for pickup or delivery before your job starts
- **Scheduling & customer coordination** we manage the calendar and the client communication
- **Weekly direct deposit** you get paid every week for jobs completed the prior pay period, no chasing invoices
You keep your overhead at zero. No office staff, no materials budget, no administrative burden.
How the Work Works
Jobs are offered to you with full transparency, you'll see the approximate location, scope of work, and your payout before you commit to anything. You accept the jobs that work for you and pass on the ones that don't. No pressure, no penalty.
Want a full week of work? We'll keep you busy. Need to scale back for a few weeks? That's fine too. We respect that life outside of work matters, and we build the schedule around you, not the other way around.
Pay is a **percentage of each completed job**, deposited directly to your account once per week.  
Who We're Looking For:
We work with a wide range of skilled tradespeople whether you're a jack-of-all-trades handyperson or someone with a deep specialty in one or two areas. What matters most is that you're honest about your skills, reliable, and easy to communicate with.
We are actively looking for contractors with experience in any of the following:
- **Exterior work** siding, soffit, fascia, gutters *(high demand right now)*
- Drywall-patching, finishing, installation
- Carpentry- trim, doors, framing repairs, decking
- Painting - interior and exterior
- Light electrical & light plumbing
- General handyman / home repair
- Kitchen & bath improvements
- Flooring installation & repair
You don't need to cover every trade on the list, but we're looking for craftspeople who can confidently handle at least 2 or 3 of these areas well. If you're only experienced in a single specialty like painting or drywall alone, this probably isn't the right fit. We need versatile tradespeople who can take on a variety of work across a job or across a week.
What You Need to Get Started:
To work with us as an independent contractor, you'll need to have the following in place:
- General liability insurance *(this is a firm requirement — we can point you in the right direction if you need help getting set up) *
- Your own tools and a reliable work vehicle
- A valid driver's license
- A smartphone with reliable data access
- Strong communication skills both with our office and with customers
- The ability to manage your own time and show up when committed
This Is a Good Fit If You...
- Want consistent work without the hassle of running your own business
- Take pride in quality craftsmanship and doing the job right the first time
- Communicate clearly and show up when you say you will
- Want flexibility without sacrificing steady income
- Are looking for autonomy; you're not clocking in for a boss, you're running your own work
This Probably Isn't a Fit If You...
- Are still building your core skills and aren't yet confident in at least 2 or 3 trades
- Aren't able to obtain liability insurance
- Prefer a traditional employee/employer arrangement with set hours and a fixed salary
- Give up when a job doesn't go exactly as planned. Real-world jobs rarely go perfectly; materials don't always fit; conditions aren't always ideal, and surprises happen. We need craftspeople who can think on their feet, adapt, and find a solution rather than walking away or waiting to be told what to do. If problem-solving on the fly isn't in your toolkit, this role will be frustrating for everyone.
