That is why they are given jobs they can do or are under supervision for
people who do this all the time.  At a former employer we had guys that had
about a hundred H4H houses under their belt.  They knew how to frame, do
drywall, roof, do plumbing and electricty as part of their regular trades.
The random volunteers end up painting, sweeping, picking up debris, or act as
runners and fetch items for the experts.  You might even see the new owners
and their families helping in planting trees, doing landscaping, and other
menial labor.  Even if they are building one or two houses, other houses are
being painted, repaired or general cleanup is required.
