Ace Handyman Services North Seattle is hiring an experienced Finish Carpenter to join our growing team.
We are looking for a detail-oriented carpenter who takes pride in precise, high-quality craftsmanship. The ideal candidate has strong experience installing cabinets, doors, trim, molding, shelving, built-ins, hardware, and other finished woodwork in occupied homes.
You will focus on completing quality work, not: finding customers, managing marketing, handling billing, or running the administrative side of a business. We provide the customers, scheduling, systems, office support, and steady local pipeline. You bring the skill, professionalism, customer communication, and ownership needed to complete jobs successfully.
Finish carpentry will be the primary focus, but this role is best suited for someone who can also handle general residential repairs, drywall, painting, tile, and light remodeling when needed. We are preparing for increased cabinet installation, painting, and bathroom remodeling work this fall.
This is intended to be a full-time position with a consistent Monday–Friday schedule. Hours and job assignments are based on skill fit, reliability, customer service, job performance, and business needs.
