About Superior Home Co

Superior Home Co is a residential home repair and remodeling company based in Stillwell, Kansas. We take pride in delivering quality craftsmanship to homeowners throughout the area — from the first nail to the final cleanup. We are a team of skilled tradespeople who hold ourselves to a high standard: show up prepared, do the work right, and leave every job site looking better than we found it.

Position Summary

The Carpenter Craftsman is a skilled, experienced field tradesperson responsible for executing a wide range of exterior and interior residential projects. This is a hands-on, in-the-field role. The right person can move fluidly between an exterior window installation in the morning and an interior trim project in the afternoon — and make both look like a professional did them, because one did. You will work directly with homeowners, manage your tools and materials, follow our Field Readiness SOP, and represent Superior Home Co with professionalism on every job site.

-Take completion photos and close work orders in the company app before departing

Team & Communication
