What is a deck builder?

Deck builders are professionals who design, construct, and repair outdoor decks for residential or commercial properties. They work with materials like wood, composite, or PVC to create functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor living spaces. Their work includes planning, obtaining permits, preparing the site, and ensuring the deck meets safety standards. Deck builders can also offer advice on materials, maintenance, and customization options to suit the client's needs.

What are some common challenges deck builders face when working on residential projects?

Deck builders often encounter challenges such as adapting designs to unique backyard layouts, managing weather-related delays, and ensuring compliance with local building codes and permit requirements. Working in residential settings also involves coordinating with homeowners to minimize disruption and maintaining clear communication about project timelines. Additionally, deck builders must balance aesthetic preferences with structural integrity to deliver a safe and visually appealing final product.

Job description

Cascade Fence and Deck

We are looking for high-caliber people to join our company where you can be a key part of the growth plan. Cascade has been around since 1997 and recently opened this 2nd location in the Tumwater area about 3 years ago.

If this sounds interesting to you, read on.

We highly value the culture and we work hard to make sure everyone loves their job. Our mission is to create a company we all like to work for, and rely on all employees to contribute to making that a reality. We're super flexible with time off and we make sure you have plenty of time for your hobbies outside of work (family, hunting, fishing, sports, etc.)

The Role:

  • We work for high end clients building decks and patio covers
  • You will work closely with the PM and the client to make their dream come to life
  • We work about 45-50 hours a week, anything over 40 is overtime
  • No mandatory Saturday work, but is available if you want more hours
  • We work in 2-3 man crews so you will be partially responsible for the success of the project
  • We often work on large custom deck and covers that can be 10-20’ off the ground
  • All tools and trucks are provided by us

Why you might not like this role?

  • We work all year around, rain or shine
  • If you have all the experience in the world and you like to tell everyone about that
  • It’s a lot of hard work so you can cancel your gym membership
    • Lifting heavy materials
    • Digging footings
    • Fast paced and competitive
  • If you do not like to work with customers

Compensation and Benefits

  • Starting wages vary between $30-$60+ DOE and potential
  • No cap on your wage, as long as your bringing more value, you will get paid more.
  • Fully paid health/dental/vision insurance for you AND your family. 100% paid by us
  • 2-3 weeks paid time off per year (accrual basis, the more you work the more you get)
  • We cover your phone bill for certain positions
  • Lots of opportunity to grow into new positions and learn new skills
  • No mandatory out of town work. We work local so you’ll be home every night

Still interested?

  • We review every single application that comes in, so we’d love to see yours.
  • Got questions? Go to our careers page and we have a list of every FAQ we could think of, we hope you can learn more there. Work Doesn’t Have To Suck
