Job description

About the Role

We are a growing deck and fence company looking for a highly skilled, dependable installer who takes pride in quality craftsmanship. This is not an entry-level role—we need someone who already knows the trade and can step in confidently, lead by example, and help train less experienced crew members.

If you’re someone who enjoys building projects the right way, understands materials and layouts, and can work independently or lead a team, this is a strong opportunity with consistent work and room to grow.

What You’ll Do

  • Build and install a wide range of fencing:
    • Wood fencing
    • Vinyl fencing
    • Aluminum fencing
  • Construct decks from layout to completion
  • Read and interpret deck plans, drawings, and layouts accurately
  • Work with:
    • Composite decking materials
    • PVC decking systems
    • Hidden fastener systems
  • Install multiple railing systems:
    • Wood railings
    • Vinyl railings
    • Aluminum railings
    • Cable rail systems
  • Ensure projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to high quality standards
  • Train and guide newer crew members on proper techniques and job site expectations
  • Maintain a clean and organized job site

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience building fences and decks (this is required)
  • Strong understanding of materials, tools, and installation methods
  • Ability to read and execute plans without constant supervision
  • Leadership mindset with willingness to train others
  • Reliable, punctual, and professional attitude
  • Physically able to handle outdoor construction work in various weather conditions

Requirements

  • Valid driver’s license
  • Reliable personal transportation to and from job sites
  • Ability to use standard construction tools (all tools provided)
  • No contractor’s license required
  • No operator’s license required

What We Offer

  • $35-$40/hour consistent pay
  • Steady, year-round work
  • All tools and equipment provided
  • Straightforward work environment
