Millworks refer to the products and components made in a mill, typically from wood, for use in building construction and interior finishing. Common millwork items include doors, window casings, baseboards, crown moldings, cabinetry, and stair parts. These elements are crafted to add both functional and decorative features to buildings.

Familiarity with CNC machines, saws, planers, and software like AutoCAD is typically required. Attention to detail, problem-solving, and strong teamwork are essential soft skills for producing high-quality custom wood products. These abilities ensure precision, safety, and efficiency in manufacturing and installation projects.

About Dufrene Building Materials

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

With 4,800 square feet of retail space, a determined couple - Paul Jr. and Rosaline - operated Dufrene Lumber Co. in 1955 in the small town of Cut Off, Louisiana. Delivery was limited to Lafourche Parish. The three-employee company grew over the years, and by 1985 the staff had increased to ten full-time employees. Paul III and Becky Dufrene purchased the family business then relocated to a larger site also in Cut Off, increasing the retail space and operations to 96,000 square feet of property. He also changed the name to Dufrene Building Materials, Inc. Today the company has grown to over 200 employees and four locations. Dufrene Building Materials, Inc. occupies over 40 acres with over 200,000 square feet of covered storage space. With a fleet of 44 vehicles including seven 18-wheelers, we can offer local delivery as well as to the entire Gulf South, including Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and into Florida.
