I have relevant experience (2+ years working, and several more years in a studio environment using construction tools) and it's about a 30 minute drive. Seems like a lot of hard work but nothing is easy.

Seems like a cool gig, not bad pay either, and with a monthly bonus that gives you some spending money for toys.

Sounds a lot like a semi-scam to me. But it could just be an over-enthusiastic amateur, I guess.
The width of the pay bracket is a definite red flag. That's the kind of thing you see in sales-job ads, but not normally. If you're doing some kind of construction where it's important for the profit margins to be watched, then you employ people who can do that and pay them what they're worth; you don't accept someone who'll do the job badly and pay them less, because you're only paying them a small fraction of the money they're saving you.
Even if it is a classic sales scam in the making, as long as you go in eyes open and are quite morally flexible, there may still be plenty of money to be made for the next couple of years, just by getting in on the ground floor.
I have a strong feeling, though, that your bonus based on 'job profit margins' will be for upselling crap to gullible clients who didn't need any work doing in the first place. If that would bother you, don't go burning any bridges just yet.
