Job Description:

Job Description Job Description Earn $26–$35 per hour ( OT if you want, tool allowance, paid birthday off, full benefits, and a team that actually gives a sh*t). If you’re either: A senior hand drywall finisher who takes pride in perfect walls and wants to learn high-end plaster and old-home repair , or A seasoned plaster/drywall pro who already fixes everyone else’s mistakes, this is for you. This is not a new-construction production taping job. We work in finished homes doing repairs, patches, and high-end texture matches using hand tools (trowels, knives, hawk/pan). If most of your experience is running boxes all day on new builds, this won’t be a fit. What’s in it for you $26–$35/hr depending on skill and experience (realistic top performers around $70,000/year) Overtime available if you want it Company vehicle Company iPad so you can leave work at the door when you get home $100/month tool allowance Company uniform (sweatshirts, shirts, hats) Paid day off for your birthday Full-time, steady work, mostly within ~ 30 minutes of central Pittsburgh 401(k) with match Health insurance Life insurance Paid time off Retirement plan Short weekly job reviews a simple monthly hands-on skills session so we keep getting better together (no corporate slide-deck “training”) What you’ll be doing High-end drywall and plaster patching and repairs Texture matching (we do a lot of it – it’s art) Working in finished homes where protection, cleanliness, and communication really matter Running your own jobs and helping train apprentices when needed Who we are (the “heart” part) We’re Pittsburgh’s 1 drywall and plaster repair company , and our business is booming. We serve busy, higher-end homeowners who care more about quality, cleanliness, and reliability than getting the cheapest price. I started in the trades doing quality work and still going home feeling like just another number. Little thanks. “We’ll train you more later” that never really happened. No real voice in how things could be better. We’ve been in business 7 years. Early on, we were that same kind of company. After learning the hard way, we rebuilt around culture, communication, and craftsmanship. We’re not perfect, but we’re serious about improving on purpose and treating people like humans, not numbers. What we need from you 10 years plastering and/or hand drywall finishing and patching experience Last 3 years mostly residential repair / remodel work , not production new construction Proven ability to match textures to a high standard (we’ll train a top-tier hand finisher on old plaster specifics) Great communication skills with customers and teammates Can work unsupervised, run your own jobs, and self-assess your quality Clean, valid driver’s license and reliable transportation Able to pass drug and criminal background checks Must be honest, no matter what Please do NOT apply if You can’t show up on time, every time You blame, gaslight, or lie when something goes wrong You get defensive instead of taking feedback and fixing it You “good enough” your work and hope paint hides it Your main experience is production new construction using automatic taping tools / boxes and you’re not confident hand-finishing detailed repairs How to apply If you think you’ve got what it takes, apply and send an email to david@Lofthomeservices.com with: A copy of your resume or work history Your favorite fruit as the subject line of the email Only people with the right to work in the US may apply. Not looking yourself but know someone great? We offer a $3,500 referral bonus once they’ve been with us at least 3 months.
