Why work with YNSG

  • You work for the owner, not a call center. Ed reads every application and works alongside the crew.
  • Clear jobs, no surprises. Every visit has an agreed scope, so you know exactly what “done right” looks like before you start.
  • Customers who appreciate you. Many of our neighbors are seniors, veterans and busy families. The work matters to them, and they say so.
  • Room to grow. Learn new skills on the job. Reliable people get first call on more hours as we grow.

How hiring works

  1. Apply online in about 5 minutes. Tell us your experience, the work you like and when you’re available. A resume is optional.
  2. Ed reaches out. If your skills and schedule fit the work we do, we’ll set up a short conversation.
  3. Join our on-call crew. When jobs come in that match your skills and schedule, you get the first call.

We’re growing with customer demand, so hours depend on the work coming in and on your availability. We’ll always be straight with you about what’s available.

What we look for

Dependability first. Then safe work habits, useful hands-on skills and friendly communication with customers. You must be at least 18, able to get yourself to local jobs and meet applicable work-authorization requirements. Veterans are encouraged to apply. All qualified applicants are welcome.

Your application stays private

Applications are read only by the business owner and are never added to customer marketing lists. Please don’t include ID documents, Social Security numbers, banking, medical or criminal-history information; any later hiring steps are handled separately.
