Lower Mainland, BC
$25–$32 per hour, depending on experience
Square One Paving Ltd. is hiring a reliable and hard working Construction Labourer to join our installation crew.
We specialize in decorative pavement systems installed over asphalt and concrete, including stamped asphalt, protective coatings and thermoplastic pavement markings. We do not perform traditional paving.

- Operating tools and equipment after training
- Maintaining a clean, safe and organized work area
- Travelling to different project locations as required
- Supporting the crew with other construction-related duties
The work is outdoors and may involve lifting, bending, repetitive tasks and standing for extended periods.
Some projects require early starts, longer workdays or travel to job sites throughout British Columbia. Overnight travel may occasionally be required depending on the project. Scheduling may also vary based on project and weather conditions.
