Carpenter

Ripley Renovations is a residential remodeling company focusing on high-end projects centered around East Dallas’ historic districts and the Park Cities. We're fortunate to work on some really special properties, some of which are on the National Historic Register or have been designed and built by some of Dallas' leading architects or city founders. Our in-house team does most of our own carpentry work for small to midsize projects – everything from framing and minor foundation repairs to custom cabinetry and trim, and we serve as the general contractor on all projects by supervising all trades. We are currently looking for an experienced carpenter with a keen eye for craftmanship in all stages of a build. If you understand how important it is to get the "rough" work right so you can excel at the fine finish parts of the job, you might be a great fit! At this time we are only considering applicants who have at least 5 years of hands-on carpentry experience in residential remodeling and woodworking. Job type: Full-time employee (not 1099) Pay rates: $30 - $35/hour, depending on experience. For applicants with a high level of skill but little leadership experience, we would start at the lower end of the range. If you already have experience leading a team and/or managing projects, the higher end of the range would apply.
