Carpenter – Residential Renovations

Chilliwack, BC | Full-Time | $26-$45/hr (based on experience)

You take pride in every cut, every clean line, every detail. We’re looking for that kind of carpenter.

MacQueen Systems is a fast-growing GC in Chilliwack taking on a wide range of custom residential renovations—kitchens, bathrooms, additions, exteriors, and full-home transformations. We’re looking for a well-rounded carpenter who thrives in the start-to- finish flow of a project and isn’t afraid to wear a few different hats throughout the week.

You’ll be involved in every phase of the job—from demo to final touch-ups—and play a key role in delivering quality work our clients rave about.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Prep and paint walls, ceilings, and trim
  • Perform drywall installation, mudding, and repairs
  • Install tile (backsplashes, floors, showers)
  • Fit and hang interior/exterior doors
  • Install baseboards, casing, crown molding, and trim
  • Handle siding and soffit repairs
  • Perform light framing and structural mods
  • Final finish carpentry and punch list touch-ups
  • Keep job sites clean, organized, and professional
  • And more, if it needs to be done, expect to do it, and do it well

What We’re Looking For:

  • 5+ years of hands-on carpentry in residential renovations
  • Full project lifecycle experience (demo to detail work)
  • Can communicate clearly with project managers (materials, issues, timelines)
  • Self-motivated, organized, and dependable
  • Comfortable working solo or as part of a fast-moving crew
  • Valid BC driver’s license and reliable transportation

Perks & Pay:

  • $26-$45/hr depending on skill and experience
  • Full-time, steady work throughout the Fraser Valley
  • Extended health benefits
  • Education & certification support for long-term team members
  • Career growth and mentorship opportunities
  • A team that values craftsmanship, communication, and showing up with the right attitude

We’re not your typical GC—and we’re not looking for a typical hire. We’re a crew that shows up, works hard, keeps things clean, and delivers projects that feel great to hand over. If you’re ready to take pride in the process and be a key part of a growing team—this could be your next move.
