About Lavi Construction
Lavi Construction is a quality-focused builder delivering high-end residential custom homes, island/lakefront cottages, and select commercial projects across Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario. We pride ourselves on fine craftsmanship, site safety, and a strong crew culture.
Role Overview
We are looking for a skilled, versatile Carpenter (Journeyperson or Experienced Apprentice) to join our team. In this role, you will work on custom residential framing, exterior finishing, timber framing, and high-end interior carpentry for waterfront cottages in Northwestern Ontario and residential projects in the Winnipeg area.
Based out of Winnipeg, you will travel with the crew to job sites in Northwestern Ontario (e.g., Kenora / Lake of the Woods region), with periodic short-term overnight stays during major construction phases. Paid travel, accommodation, and food allowance are provided.
Key Responsibilities
Framing & Structural Work: Read prints and execute layout, floors, walls, roof trusses, and custom roof structures for high-end cottages.
Exterior & Interior Finish Work: Install siding, soffit/fascia, custom decks, doors, windows, trim, cabinetry, and interior wood finishes.
Site Execution & Quality: Work efficiently while maintaining exacting standards for structural integrity and aesthetic detail.
Safety & Maintenance: Adhere to workplace safety standards, maintain a clean site, and ensure safe operation of all power tools and equipment.
Team Collaboration: Work closely with the Site Superintendent, sub-trades, and fellow crew members to meet project timelines.
Qualifications & Requirements
Experience: 3+ years of practical carpentry experience in residential construction (framing, exterior cladding, or finish carpentry experience preferred). Journeyperson status is an asset, but proven hands-on skill is most important.
