Job Description

NOW HIRING: Full-time Experienced Rough Carpenter(Because buildings don’t frame themselves.) Are you a seasoned pro with a hammer in one hand and a speed square in the other?

  • Framing, siding, and installing windows and doors (we like them square and weather-tight)
  • Patching drywall and painting like a champ
  • Demolition (yes, you get to break stuff—legally!)
  • Keeping job sites clean, organized, and OSHA-happy
  • Hauling, lifting, climbing, and working in all kinds of weather (Maine doesn’t do “mild”)
 What You Bring:
  • Solid experience in construction or carpentry
  • The ability to read a tape measure without flipping it upside down
  • Your own tools: hammer, tape measure, pencil, speed square, pry bar, and a tool belt/pouch that says “I mean business”
  • A sharp eye, and a no-nonsense work ethic
 Bonus Points If You:
  • Can spot a crooked stud from across the room
  • Know how to make a ladder feel like a throne
  • Bring good vibes and a bad sense of humor
