At Bay Point Contracting, we are an established and growing renovation contracting company specializing in residential projects. We believe in doing things right-building trust with our clients, maintaining high standards, and creating a team that supports each other. We do not just renovate spaces-we provide certainty, build strong relationships, and create great careers.
This role is an opportunity to continue building yours.
Bay Point Contracting is seeking a motivated and developing Apprentice Renovation Carpenter to support our team across residential renovation projects.
Although carpentry is an important part of the position, this is not a carpenter-only role. Renovation work requires adaptability and the ability to contribute across multiple phases of a project, including rough and finish carpentry, drywall, taping, concrete work, demolition, installation, material handling, and general construction activities.
The right person will already have a foundation of construction and renovation experience but will remain eager to learn, improve, and take on increasingly complex responsibilities.
You will report to the Site Lead and work alongside experienced renovation professionals, project managers, and site leads while continuing to develop the technical knowledge, judgment, and workmanship required to progress into a skilled renovation position.
You will have the opportunity to:
- Work on varied residential renovation projects.
- Expand your rough and finish carpentry abilities.
- Develop broader skills across multiple renovation trades.
- Learn directly from experienced renovation professionals.
- Improve your ability to read plans, take measurements, and complete installations.
- Take on increasing responsibility as your skills and judgment develop.
- Contribute ideas that improve quality, productivity, safety, and customer service.
- Progress toward becoming a fully skilled renovation professional.
If you enjoy solving practical problems, developing your trade skills, and contributing to projects from one phase to the next, this could be an excellent fit.
- Receive instructions and complete assigned work with accuracy and efficiency.
- Perform hands-on construction and renovation tasks throughout different project phases.

- Transport, organize, and properly store construction materials, tools, and equipment.
- Maintain clean, safe, and organized project sites.

- Work closely with project managers, site leads, tradespeople, and other team members.
- Provide assistance wherever needed to help projects remain on schedule.
- Communicate clearly, ask appropriate questions, and report project progress or concerns.
- Offer practical input that may improve productivity, quality, construction systems, or customer service.
- Direct potential leads for new work to Bay Point Contracting's sales team.

- Ability to follow instructions while also developing independent problem-solving skills.
- Strong safety awareness and consistent adherence to safety protocols.
- Reliable attendance, punctuality, and follow-through.
- Ability to adapt to changing project conditions, priorities, and assignments.
- Good listening and communication skills.
- Willingness to accept feedback, improve skills, and take initiative.
