Field Technician

Finish Trades Contractor — Multifamily Turns & Renovations (1099)
Apex Multifamily · $18–$25/hr, 1099 contract
· Must have own tools and truck

The work

We turn and renovate apartment units. We need a contractor who can take an empty unit and hand it back rent-ready without three other trades following behind you.

If you can float a wall to Level 4, match the texture, cut a clean line, set a cabinet run plumb and level, and swap a faucet and a GFCI without calling anyone — we want to talk.

What you'll be doing

Drywall & finish

Patches, full sheet replacement, blowouts, water damage, corner bead

Tape and float to Level 4 — smooth, no tool marks, ready for primer

Texture matching: orange peel, knockdown, splatter, skip trowel, smooth

Level 5 skim coat when the scope calls for itPaint

Caulk, patch, spot prime, prep

Cut and roll walls, ceilings, trim, doors — clean lines, no holidays

Match property sheen and color standards

Brush, roll, and spray; mask and protect; leave it clean

Cabinets & trim

Plumbing fixtures (like-for-like)
