Elemental Horizon Construction, Inc.

San Diego County | Residential Remodels, ADUs & Custom Construction

Elemental Horizon Construction is a family-owned construction company specializing in high-quality residential remodels, ADUs, additions, custom homes, multi-unit residential construction, and condominium renovation projects throughout San Diego County.

We are looking for skilled and dependable construction workers who take pride in their work and want to grow with a professional, team-oriented company.

For example:

One employee may have strong drywall, plumbing, or cabinet experience
Another may be stronger in framing, demolition, or rough carpentry
Others may have experience assisting electricians, tile setters, painters, or finish crews

We value workers who are confident in the skills they do have, willing to jump in where needed, and committed to producing quality work.

Because much of our work takes place inside occupied homes, professionalism matters. We are looking for team members who are respectful, clean, trustworthy, and able to conduct themselves appropriately around homeowners, families, children, and pets.

Elemental Horizon Construction is a drug-free workplace. Employees are expected to report to work sober, professional, and ready to safely perform their job responsibilities.

Assist with residential remodel and construction projects throughout San Diego County
Perform demolition, site preparation, cleanup, and material handling
Assist with framing, drywall, cabinetry, finish carpentry, plumbing prep, or other trade-related tasks depending on experience
Safely operate hand tools, power tools, and small equipment
Maintain clean, organized, and professional job sites
Work collaboratively with foremen, subcontractors, and team members
Follow company safety standards and OSHA requirements
Report to job sites on time and ready to work

What We’re Looking For:

Experience in residential construction, remodeling, or one or more construction trades
Strong skills in at least some areas of construction work
Willingness to learn additional trades and grow within the company
Ability to work independently as well as part of a team
Professional attitude and respectful communication
Reliable transportation preferred
Strong work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail
Candidates should have their own basic hand tools appropriate for their experience level.

Pay:

$28–$38 per hour DOE (Depending on Your Experience)

Why Work With Us:

Steady residential remodel work
Variety of custom projects throughout San Diego County
Opportunity to continue learning multiple trades
Team-oriented environment
Family-oriented company culture
Work alongside experienced builders who care about craftsmanship and quality

Pay: $28.00 - $38.00 per hour
