Full Job Description

KY Home MD

Skilled Carpenter

$20–$35/hour, depending on experience Full-Time

About KY Home MD

KY Home MD specializes in the renovation and restoration of historic homes throughout Central Kentucky. Our work requires a craftsman’s eye, respect for original materials and techniques, and pride in a job done right. You’ll be joining a small crew where everyone contributes and no one is above cleaning the job site. The quality of your work speaks for itself, and so does your willingness to do whatever the job needs.

Position Overview

We are looking for an experienced, versatile carpenter to join our crew on residential historic renovation projects. This role touches all phases of carpentry (from rough framing to fine finish work) as well as painting and other renovation tasks as needed, and requires someone who takes ownership of their work and can operate with minimal supervision.

Key Responsibilities

Perform structural and rough framing work, including walls, floors, roofs, and load-bearing repairs
Execute interior and exterior trim installation: crown molding, baseboards, casings, wainscoting, and built-ins
Complete high-quality finish carpentry — doors, windows, cabinetry, and millwork — with attention to period-appropriate detail
Assess and repair existing historic woodwork, matching original profiles and materials where possible
Read and interpret blueprints, sketches, and verbal instructions to complete scoped work accurately
Maintain a safe, organized job site throughout the project – ongoing cleanliness is a reflection of the respect we show every homeowner and their home
Follow and enforce all jobsite safety protocols, including proper use of PPE, safe handling of tools and materials, and awareness of hazards specific to older homes (lead paint, asbestos, structural instability, etc)
Coordinate with the project lead and other tradespeople to meet project timelines
Identify and communicate scope changes, material needs, or structural concerns to the team

Skills & Experience

Minimum 3 years of hands-on carpentry experience, with demonstrated proficiency across framing, trim, and finish work or 3 years of painting experience with some carpentry experience
Strong working knowledge of hand tools, power tools, and pneumatic tools — and how to care for them
Experience with interior and exterior painting is highly preferred
Ability to read blueprints and work from detailed plans or field measurements
Experience working on older or historic structures is a strong plus
Reliable, punctual, and self-directed with a strong work ethic
Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation required

Physical Requirements

This position requires consistent physical activity in varying conditions. Candidates must be able to:

Lift and carry materials weighing up to 75 lbs unassisted
Stand, kneel, bend, and crouch for extended periods throughout the workday
Work at heights, including on ladders and scaffolding
Work outdoors in all seasons and in environments that may include dust, noise, and confined spaces
Perform repetitive motions (cutting, nailing, sanding) throughout the shift

Compensation & Schedule

Pay: $20–$35/hour based on experience and performance
Full-time position; typical schedule is Monday–Friday; schedule is subject to change based on weather and project demands
Projects located primarily in Central Kentucky

How to Apply

Interested candidates should reach out with a brief summary of their experience and any references from previous employers or contractors. We’d love to hear what you’ve built.

KY Home MD is an equal opportunity employer.

Pay: $20.00 - $35.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule
Health insurance
Life insurance
