The preferred candidate will be a skilled laborer interested in earthen architecture construction work. Work is with mud brick, and is on traditional and historic mud brick buildings. Work also includes performing all types of masonry work (repairing, laying, pointing and stitching), as well as framing and finish carpentry, and all phases of plastering and rendering. During the winter months, the position would expand to focus on other preservation trades. Most work is on the road, and will fully train the right candidates. Interest in long term commitment is essential.
Thanks in large part to one of the strongest grant programs in the country, preservation is thriving in Colorado. Most of our projects are partly state-funded, leading to an interesting and always varying range of non-profit clients and project sites. Our projects have ranged from historic barns, to school houses, to churches to museum spaces and additions/ renovations on private homes. Each job is unique in its elements but consistent in their adherence to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards.
