Projects

Carpenters work on some of the biggest projects out there. You'll see us working on commercial buildings, hotels, stadiums, refineries, and even bridges. We are often the first on the job and the last to leave. From site prep, concrete forms and decks to framing walls and roofs, windows, doors, cabinetry, countertops, trim, installing doors and hardware and specialty furniture.

Below are a few projects our members have put a lot of hours into. We're proud of the work we do. We're professionally trained by a state-certified training program at no cost to taxpayers.
