Skilled Craftsman - Carpenter

Kustom US

At Kustom, we bring order to chaos after disaster strikes - restoring property, stability, and peace of mind for businesses and families across the country. Every day provides an opportunity to learn new skills, help customers in moments of need, and build a career with an industry leader. If you take pride in craftsmanship, prioritize job site safety, and enjoy supporting the overall success of every project, apply today!


What You Do

You'll perform a wide range of hands-on repair and rebuild tasks based on the needs of each project, supporting restoration work after water, fire, wind, or mold events. Every day looks a little different, but you make a difference by:
  • Working across multiple trades - carpentry, drywall, painting, and general repairs - to get properties rebuilt the right way
  • Handling framing, trim, surface prep, patching, and finishing with accuracy and craftsmanship
  • Rebuilding and installing cabinets, including removal, setting, leveling, and securing for a clean finish
  • Setting up, protecting, and maintaining clean, safe, organized work areas
  • Pitching in with light demo, debris removal, and material handling whenever needed
  • Keeping your tools, equipment, and company vehicle clean, stocked, and ready for the next job
What You Bring

You're dependable, hardworking, safety-minded, and confident in at least two skilled trade areas - framing, finish carpentry, drywall finishing, or painting. You're successful here because you:
  • Consider yourself a jack-of-all-trades, bringing hands-on experience in carpentry, drywall, painting, and/or general repairs
  • Take pride in detailed, high-quality craftsmanship
  • Work independently while communicating clearly with customers and teammates
  • Use tools, equipment, and job site safety practices responsibly and confidently
  • Comfortable with minor plumbing and electrical (basic fixture swaps, simple disconnects/reconnects, troubleshooting, etc.)
  • Possess a valid driver's license and can meet all pre-employment screening requirements
Why Join Kustom
  • Culture That Inspires - Teamwork, integrity, and a growth mindset fuel how we show up for each other and for the customers who rely on us
  • Total Rewards Package - Competitive weekly pay with a comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, and more
  • Career Growth Opportunities - Training, mentorship, and the chance to enhance your career and skills
