Website Deep Roots Craftsmen
Deep Roots Craftsmen, a historic preservation contractor based in Fort Collins, Colorado, is looking for a Window Technician to join our dynamic shop team. 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. With many of these projects, there is scope for window and door restoration as well as window reproduction.
As one of our Window Technicians, you will perform many or all window restoration tasks. These tasks typically include: steaming windows and removing glass, stripping paint, sanding windows/doors, performing epoxy and simple repairs, re-glazing windows, and painting windows/ doors. Work often involves potential exposure to lead paint and we may measures in place in the shop space to mitigate and minimize these risks. Additionally, our team is looking for occasional help in the field with the removal and reinstallation of windows and doors. This work can include cutting historic windows loose and removing, installing temporary panels during restoration, and reinstallation of windows/doors and weatherstripping.
All Window Technicians work directly beneath the Window Restoration Manager interact with clients on-site and in the shop. All staff are responsible for keeping the shop clean and safe.
