We are a small custom build firm that specializes in high quality, sustainable residential construction. Renovations and new construction. Job sites can be in the heart of the capital region, or up to 1hr 15minute drive away from Troy.
We are seeking to expand our team with smart, hard working people, that will be a positive contribution. We can use both entry level carpenters/laborers, and those with years of experience. A good personality and being a team player is important to us and our clients.
Upcoming jobs include a gut renovation of a wood framed house in Troy, and next year the new construction of a highly sustainable home insulated with straw bale panels and finished with earthen plasters. We also take on smaller jobs such as new decks, window and door replacement, etc. Familiarity and experience with natural building methods is a plus but not a requirement.
