Exterior Carpenter – Wildlife Exclusion & Repair
$28–$40/hr | Full-Time | Foreman & Manager Growth Opportunities

We’re looking to hire skilled carpenters who takes pride in clean work, smart solutions, and doing the job right the first time.

This role focuses on exterior carpentry, structural repair, and custom exclusion work: sealing homes from rodents, squirrels, bats, and other nuisance wildlife.

What You’ll Do

Repair and seal soffits, fascia, trim, and roofline damage
Perform precision sealing and exclusion work (vents, gaps, entry points)
Install materials like metal flashing, hardware cloth, vent covers, chimney caps
Diagnose problems and build real solutions...not quick patches
Work independently or with a partner. You take ownership of your jobs

What We’re Looking For

Strong carpentry skills (exterior preferred)
Ability to cut, fit, and install clean, professional-looking repairs
Bending coil stock on a brake and installing our Metal-X Pest Proofing System
Trapping and/or evicting nuisance wildlife from residential and commercial structures
Comfortable on ladders, boom lifts and roofs
Problem-solver mindset (every house is different)
Reliable, detail-oriented, and takes pride in craftsmanship
Has a great attitude for the service business and good customer service skills

Who This Is NOT For

This is not a fit if you:

Cut corners or rush through jobs just to get done faster
Struggle with clean cuts, tight fits, and professional finishes
Need constant direction or supervision
Aren’t comfortable on ladders, roofs, or working outdoors
Treat this like “just another job” instead of a craft

This IS For You If

You take pride in clean, tight, professional-looking work
You notice the small details and fix them without being asked
You like solving problems where every job is different
You’d rather do it right once than fix it twice
You want your work to actually matter and be seen

Why This Role is Different

This isn’t framing the same wall every day.
You’ll be solving real problems, doing custom work on every home, and seeing the direct impact of your craftsmanship.

If you’re a carpenter who’s tired of repetitive builds and wants something more hands-on, more creative, and more rewarding...this is it.
