Retherford Custom Homes & Renovations
Trim Carpenter
Location: Florence, AL
Craft the details that make a home unforgettable.
If you love turning clean lines into "wow" moments, doors that hang perfectly, casing that meets just right, miters that disappear, come build with a team that sweats the details and treats craftsmanship like a promise.
Retherford Custom Homes & Renovations builds and renovates custom homes across the Shoals. We're known for clear communication, tidy jobsites, and quality that lasts. We do what we say, keep clients in the loop, and take pride in a professional, respectful presence on every project.
As a Trim Carpenter , you'll install interior and exterior finish elements, doors, casing, base, crown, stair parts, built-ins, and specialty details while supporting occasional rough carpentry. You'll work closely with our Project Manager and site leads to deliver polished, on-time finishes that the homeowner will notice every day.
Key Responsibilities
- Install doors, hardware, casing, base, crown, window trim, stair components, wainscoting, and cabinetry/built-ins.
- Scribe, cope, and tune details for tight, clean joints and consistent reveals.
- Read plans, elevations, and finish schedules; verify site conditions and field-measure accurately.
- Coordinate with the PM on sequence and materials; flag conflicts early and offer solutions.
- Maintain a safe, clean, and organized work area; protect finished surfaces.
- Assist with punch lists and final detailing to deliver a "photo-ready" finish.
- Support rough carpentry as needed (blocking, minor framing adjustments, prep for finishes).
Qualifications
- 3 or more years of residential trim/finish carpentry (custom homes or high-end remodels preferred).
- Mastery of layout, measuring, coping, scribing, and door hanging/tuning.
- Ability to read drawings and follow finish schedules with minimal supervision.
- Must have some of your own tools (personal hand and small power tools; we supply larger tools).
- Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license (regional travel to jobsites).
- Professional communication, punctuality, and pride in workmanship.
- Safety-minded: understands ladder use, PPE, and jobsite safety practices.
- Experience with site protection, dust control, and occupied-home etiquette.
- Ability to assist with light cabinet installation and built-in assembly.
- Comfort using basic project tech (texts, photos, daily notes; JobTread or similar a plus).
Why Join RCH
- Consistent, year-round work on quality projects.
- Respectful, organized team that values craftsmanship and follow-through.
- Clear expectations, steady schedules, and a clean, professional jobsite.
- Competitive salary at $23 to $27 per hour, based on experience, with room to grow based on performance.
Work Location & Schedule
- Full-time (W-2), Monday-Friday, primarily across the Florence/Muscle Shoals area. Occasional overtime as project needs require.
