Carpenter – Full Time | Bayz Carpentry Pty Ltd
Bayz Carpentry Pty Ltd is a Melbourne carpentry business working on residential construction and renovation projects across metropolitan Melbourne. Our business is growing and we are looking for a reliable Carpenter to join our team on a full time, ongoing basis.
This is a hands-on role for a carpenter who takes pride in quality workmanship, can read plans, and is comfortable working both independently and as part of a small team.
About the role
On a typical week across our residential sites, you will:
- Review the plans, drawings and builder’s specifications before each job to confirm dimensions, materials and how each part is to be installed
- Choose and order the timber, sheet products and hardware you need, and set out the job on site
- Measure, cut and shape timber, plywood and other materials, then assemble and fix the parts with nails, screws and other fixings
- Build and stand wall frames – including prefabricated wall panels and lightweight steel framing – and pitch roofs using rafters or trusses
- Install bearers, joists and sub-floors, and lay floor sheeting or timber floorboards
- Check that frames, floors and roofs are plumb, level and square before the next trade starts
- Fix fascia and barge boards, lay roof sheathing, and install weatherboards and other external cladding
- Fit window and door frames and external doors to bring homes to lock-up
- Carry out fit-off: hanging internal doors and fixing skirting boards, architraves, wall linings and shelving
- Cut and fit timber joints neatly and accurately using hand and power tools
- Build formwork for slabs, footings and steps when a job requires it
- Repair or replace damaged timberwork and existing fittings on renovation jobs
- Keep your work area safe and tidy and follow site safety rules
