Skilled trades are our bread and butter. Framers, finish carpenters, cement masons, rebar tiers, and helpers for your electricians, plumbers, and pipefitters. We tell you straight what we can field, then we dispatch. W-2, and the comp is on us.

FAQ

Construction staffing questions

Can you get laborers to a jobsite same day?
Yes, call early and we will tell you straight when we can have hands on site. Same-day and next-morning is what we do.
Do you send skilled tradesmen or just laborers?
Both. Carpenters, concrete finishers, and masons, plus helpers for your electricians, plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC crews.
Who covers a jobsite injury?
We do. Every worker is our W-2 employee and we carry the workers' comp, so it does not land on your project.
Do workers show up with PPE?
Yes, hands arrive with boots, hard hat, and vest. Tell us any site-specific gear and we will make sure they are set.
Can I ask for the same hands again?
Yes, if a worker fits your crew, request them by name and we send them back when they are free.
Do laborers show up with their own hand tools?
Yes, standard hand tools. Tell us if the job needs anything specialty and we will talk through what is on you versus us.
Can you staff a multi-week job, not just a single day?
Yes, from one day to a multi-month build. We keep the crew consistent for the length of the job.
Do you supply equipment operators, not just laborers?
Yes, skid-steer, forklift, and telehandler operators are available. Tell us the machine and we match experience.
