We are looking for good humans.
Looking for flexible work that makes a difference?
We're building a team of good humans
that folks are happy to see pull into their driveway.
Skills can be taught. Character can't.
The people who thrive here are dependable, kind, curious, and enjoy solving problems. They like working with their hands, helping others, and being part of a team that genuinely enjoys working together.
No two days are the same. One day you might help organize a garage, the next patch drywall, paint a room, assemble furniture, tackle a yard cleanup, or cross a long-overdue to-do list off for a client.
We're not looking for someone who knows everything. We're looking for someone who shows up, works hard, asks questions, takes pride in a job well done, and treats every client and every home with respect.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.
Send us an email at k8doit@gmail.com and we'll send you a few quick questions to see if we're a good fit for each other.
About Us
K8 Do It, Handygal Services is a women-owned and operated handy person company serving the Greater Pittsburgh area. We specialize in the “in-between” jobs, the ones that could have been DIY but might be too much and the ones that are too small for a contractor to take. These are usually the jobs that matter deeply to our clients but often get overlooked.
We proudly serve LGBTQ+ households, individuals aging in place, busy families, and anyone who wants to feel safe and supported in their home.
