Job description

Are you the carpenter other carpenters ask for help?


We're hiring a Master Restoration Carpenter, someone who's spent years building things right, and wants to put that skill into buildings worth saving and set the standard the rest of our crew learns from.
No historic window experience required if you've mastered an adjacent craft, we'll teach you the windows fast. What we can't teach is decades of judgment and a standard you won't lower.


About Double Hung


Double Hung was founded in 1997 for a stubborn reason: our founder, David Hoggard, was tired of watching well-built and doors get torn out and thrown away. Nearly thirty years later, we're one of the most trusted restoration partners to general contractors, homeowners, municipalities, and developers across the Southeast. From the Supreme Court of Virginia in Richmond to the Birth Home of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Atlanta, Moses Cone Manor in Blowing Rock, university campuses across the Carolinas and Virginia, and neighborhoods throughout North Carolina, our work touches some of the most remarkable buildings still standing today.


Where You'll Work

You'll spend your weeks on buildings most people only photograph from the sidewalk, federal courthouses, national historic sites, churches and university halls that have already stood a century and were built to stand for another.

One week you're in a state capitol, the next you're in a small town whose courthouse is the proudest thing on the square. The work travels, a week or two at a time, with stretches at home in between. You're putting your hands on work that will outlast everyone who touches it.


Who You Are

  • A decade or more of serious craft, finish carpentry, joinery, cabinetry, architectural millwork, or historic restoration, at a level other carpenters notice
  • You've run your own shop, your own jobs, or led crews, and you set the standard
  • You can take a project from drawings to finished install on your own, on time and on budget
  • You know traditional joinery, doors, windows, glazing, and finishes.
  • You want to teach. Building the next generation of craftspeople is something you'd take pride in, not just tolerate.
  • Real experience across both residential and institutional/commercial restoration, and a clear understanding of how differently the two have to be run
  • You have a valid driver's license and a clean driving record
  • You're comfortable being away from home for 2 weeks at a time, with local work and home stretches in between
  • RRP/Lead-Safe Certified Renovator, OSHA 10/30, and prior federal, state, or institutional preservation work are pluses. Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus.


What You'll Earn

  • $30 – $38/hour, depending on experience, and if you're truly exceptional, tell us what it takes. We'll have the conversation.
  • Your EPA RRP Lead-Safe Certified Renovator credential, paid for by us if you're not certified yet
  • Paid training and professional development opportunities
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off + paid holidays
  • Retirement plan
  • Tool reimbursement and purchase program
  • A real say in how the work gets done, and a crew that's worth leading


Why a Master Comes Here

You've probably spent years carrying a business on your back, or doing top work for someone who couldn't tell the difference. Here, the work is hard in the way you want it to be, the standard is high, and what you know gets passed on instead of lost. We promote from within, and the people who teach the next generation of craftspeople are the ones who shape the future of this company.
