Job Title

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
