Volunteer - Construction Opportunities


Construction volunteers participate in many aspects of the homebuilding process including: rough and finish carpentry, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC installation, drywall hanging, insulating, painting, foundation prepping, landscaping, and hanging siding, etc. Habitat is always looking for skilled workers, however volunteers do not need any prior experience in construction.
