What is a Union Carpenter?
A Carpenter is the person who builds or remodels residential and commercial buildings, some very large, some not, which we all use to live, work, and play in. Carpenters are required on every type of building as we form the foundations and install inside trim including doors and hardware, which all buildings use. Many buildings, the one you live in perhaps, have been built completely by Carpenters, with other trades attending to the mechanical parts. From our years of training we constantly build with safety of construction, safety of the workers, and your safety and security in mind. Carpenters build other projects besides wood or light-gauge steel buildings. Concrete road, bridge, airport, and water project construction is a large part of the Carpenter trade. Some of our work is underground (the Deep Tunnel), and 10- 20- 40- 60- to 100-stories high in the sky, as well as at ground level. Some Carpenters spend months or years working on one large building or a subdivision of houses. T
