    Carpenter – Residential Remodeling

     

     

    Overview

     

     

    We’re looking for a skilled carpenter to lead and work alongside a residential remodeling crew on projects across multiple locations. This role is perfect for someone who knows remodels inside and out—from demo to punch list—and is comfortable traveling, problem-solving on the fly, and delivering high-quality finishes in lived-in homes.

     

     

    What You’ll Do

     

     

    • Manage and execute residential remodeling projects (kitchens, bathrooms, whole-home renovations, additions, etc.)
    • Travel to project sites and stay on location for the duration of each remodel
    • Lead and coordinate remodeling crew and subcontractors
    • Perform hands-on work as needed (framing, drywall, trim, tile, punch work, etc.)
    • Plan daily work, manage timelines, and keep projects moving efficiently
    • Order materials and ensure correct deliveries
    • Read and interpret plans, scopes of work, and change orders
    • Ensure all work meets local building codes and quality standards
    • Communicate clearly with homeowners and project managers
    • Maintain clean, safe, and respectful job sites in occupied homes

     

     

     

    What We’re Looking For

     

     

    • Strong experience in residential remodeling (not just new construction)
    • Proven ability to manage crews and subcontractors
    • Comfortable working in finished homes and interacting with homeowners
    • Willingness and ability to travel regularly
    • Solid knowledge of remodeling trades and sequencing
    • Strong problem-solving skills (old houses welcome surprises)
    • Reliable transportation and valid driver’s license
    • Contractor’s license preferred or required depending on location

     

     

     

    Travel Details

     

     

    • Frequent travel required (projects vary by location)
    • Lodging and travel expenses covered or reimbursed
    • Per diem available (if applicable)

     

     

     

    Compensation

     

     

    • Competitive pay based on experience and scope
    • Travel expenses covered
    • Opportunity for steady, long-term work
    • Performance or project completion bonuses (if applicable)

     

     

     

    Why This Role

     

     

    • Consistent residential remodeling projects
    • Organized scheduling and clear scopes
    • Quality-focused work—not rushed production builds
    • Respect for craftsmanship and experienced tradespeople
