Drywall / Ceiling Tile Installer

About This Role

Looking for a hands-on Drywall Framer to install and finish drywall and ceiling tile on commercial and residential projects around Colorado Springs. This is field work: measuring, cutting, hanging, taping, finishing and installing grid ceilings to meet specs and safety standards. You’ll work on-site with small crews, use trade tools and equipment daily, and be expected to produce clean, durable finishes on schedule. Steady, local work with overtime available — we need dependable people who take pride in quality work and show up ready to get the job done.

What You'll Do

• • Measure, cut, hang and secure drywall and gypsum board to metal or wood framing per plans
• • Tape, mud, sand and finish drywall to specified texture levels for commercial and residential jobs
• • Install suspended ceiling grids and ceiling tiles, including access panels and trim
• • Read basic blueprints and layout sheets; mark layout lines and locate openings and penetrations
• • Operate saws, screw guns, lifts, scaffolds and hand tools safely; maintain tools and equipment
• • Keep job sites clean, load/unload materials, assist with deliveries and follow site safety protocols

What We're Looking For

• • 2+ years hands-on drywall and ceiling tile installation experience (commercial experience preferred)
• • Proven skill with taping, mudding and finishing techniques to achieve smooth, consistent surfaces
• • Comfort working on scaffolds and lifts; able to work at heights and in confined spaces
• • Physical stamina — lift 50+ lbs, kneel, bend and stand for long periods
• • Reliable transportation to jobs around Colorado Springs and punctual attendance
• • Basic ability to read plans, use a tape measure accurately and follow foreman instructions

Qualifications

• • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• • OSHA-10 (preferred) — OSHA-30 or fall protection training a plus
• • High school diploma or GED (or equivalent on-the-job experience)
• • Willingness to pass a background check and drug screen
• • Spanish language skills helpful but not required

What We Offer

• • Competitive hourly pay based on experience; overtime available
• • Paid training and certification support (OSHA, specialty finishing)
• • Health insurance options and paid time off/holidays
• • 401(k) plan with employer match or contribution
• • Tool/boot allowance and reimbursement for required PPE
• • Steady, local project schedule with potential for long-term work
