Position Overview

We are seeking 3 skilled Punch List Technicians to support the final completion phase of new construction homes.

This is a temporary-to-hire position, with expected conversion to regular full-time after 90 days. In this role, you will work directly under a site foreman, receiving a daily punch list of items that need to be corrected or completed before homes are handed over to homeowners. You'll be the last set of hands on each home — your work directly determines the quality the buyer experiences on move-in day.

This position involves executing daily punch lists, performing finishing repairs, and ensuring homes meet quality standards before handover to homeowners. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, works well independently, and has hands-on experience across multiple construction trades.

Key Responsibilities

• Receive and execute daily punch lists from the site foreman covering minor repairs and finishing tasks
• Perform paint touch-ups and full wall/trim repaints as needed
• Patch and repair drywall — small holes, nail pops, dings, seams, and texture matching
• Complete light carpentry tasks such as trim adjustments, door/hardware corrections, and minor fixture installations
• Address items identified during pre-closing walkthroughs that do not meet quality standards
• Move efficiently from home to home across active construction communities
• Communicate clearly with the foreman regarding task status, material needs, and any issues discovered
• Maintain a clean and safe work environment at each home
• Document completed items accurately as required

Qualifications

Required:

• Hands-on experience in residential construction, remodeling, or a related trade
• Proficiency in at least two of the following: painting, drywall repair, light carpentry, or basic fixture installation
• Ability to work independently and manage time across multiple homes in a single day
• Strong attention to detail and pride in quality work
• Physical ability to perform the duties of the role (lifting, kneeling, climbing ladders, etc.)
• Reliable transportation to job sites
• Ability to communicate via phone/text and follow written and verbal task lists

Preferred:

• Prior experience in punch list work on new construction homes
• Familiarity with production home building environments
• Basic knowledge of a broad range of trades (painting, drywall, carpentry, caulking, cleaning)

Compensation & Benefits

• Pay Rate: $20/hr – $22/hr, commensurate with experience
• Benefits: PTO
• Additional: Overtime opportunities available during the week and on weekends
