Amberstone is growing and we are seeking an experienced Master Carpenter to support our residential, emergency restoration, and light commercial operations. This role is for a seasoned professional who takes pride in craftsmanship, understands jobsite discipline, and sets the standard for how work should be done.
This is not a helper role and not a position for someone still learning the trade. We are looking for a carpenter who can execute independently, lead by example, and elevate the quality of work around them.
What this role involves:
• Leading and executing carpentry work across multiple project types
• Framing, drywall installation and finishing, and flooring work
• Finish carpentry, repairs, and rebuilds following restoration work
• Supporting remodels and interior improvements
• Reviewing work for quality and correcting issues when needed
• Maintaining clean, safe, and professional jobsites
• Communicating clearly with project managers and field leadership
Required experience:
• Strong hands-on experience in carpentry and interior trades
• Proven ability in framing, drywall, flooring, and general carpentry
• Experience working in occupied homes and light commercial settings
• Understanding of proper sequencing, materials, and workmanship standards
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of results
What we look for:
• Pride in craftsmanship and attention to detail
• Reliability, punctuality, and professionalism
• Strong work ethic and respect for the trade
• Willingness to mentor others through example
• Commitment to doing the job right—no shortcuts
What we offer:
• Competitive hourly pay: $25–$35/hour
• Consistent work across residential and light commercial projects
• Clear expectations and structured operations
• Leadership that is present and supportive
• A professional environment where quality work is respected
This role is ideal for a carpenter who wants steady work, clear standards, and a company that values skill, accountability, and professionalism.
If you are looking for casual work or a low-expectation environment, this position will not be the right fit.
