We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Residential Painter to join our team. The ideal candidate will have experience in painting residential properties, including both interior and exterior surfaces. This role requires a strong understanding of surface preparation, paint application techniques, and safety procedures. As a Residential Painter, you will be responsible for transforming homes through high-quality painting services that meet client expectations and industry standards.
The Residential Painter will work closely with homeowners, contractors, and other team members to ensure that each project is completed on time and to the highest quality. You must be able to assess surfaces, select appropriate materials, and apply paint using brushes, rollers, or sprayers. Attention to detail, a steady hand, and a commitment to cleanliness and safety are essential for success in this role.
Key tasks include preparing surfaces by cleaning, sanding, and priming; applying paint, stain, or coatings; repairing minor drywall or surface imperfections; and maintaining tools and equipment. You will also be expected to follow all safety guidelines, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and to maintain a clean and organized work area.
This position may require working in various weather conditions and at different heights, so physical stamina and comfort with ladders and scaffolding are important. Strong communication skills and a customer-focused attitude are also necessary, as you will often interact directly with clients to understand their needs and preferences.
If you take pride in your craftsmanship and enjoy making homes look their best, we encourage you to apply for this rewarding opportunity.
