About the Role
NorthCo Services is an Ottawa-based renovation company that holds a higher standard - for the work we put our name on, for how we treat clients, and for how we treat each other. We're growing fast, we're a tight-knit crew that takes the craft seriously without taking ourselves too seriously, and we're looking to add a skilled Drywall Finisher & Mudder to the team.
This is a full-time role for someone who can take a wall from bare board to paint-ready and finished - clean, smooth, and done right. If you take real pride in a flawless finish and want to work with a crew that actually cares about quality, this is your lane.
What You'll Be Doing
- Tape, mud, and finish drywall to a high-quality standard
- Apply drywall compound to seams, joints, corners, screws, and imperfections for a smooth, professional finish
- Sand and prepare drywall surfaces for primer and paint
- Identify and repair drywall deficiencies, cracks, holes, and damaged areas
- Prepare surfaces for painting - filling, sanding, caulking, masking, and priming
- Apply primer and paint to walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and other interior surfaces
- Complete touch-ups and finishing work with strong attention to detail
- Protect floors, furniture, cabinetry, and surrounding areas before starting
- Keep a clean, organized work area throughout the project
- Communicate with Project Managers and teammates on progress, deficiencies, and material needs
- Work respectfully in occupied homes and deliver a professional experience for homeowners
- Follow all company health and safety procedures
Our Core Values
- Do the right thing: We act with integrity, even when no one's watching.
- Partnership: We work toward win-win-win outcomes for clients, team, and company.
- Growth: We challenge the status quo and seek continuous improvement.
- Leadership: We own our roles and lead by example - no micromanagement needed.
Compensation:
- CA$28.00 - CA$32.00 per hour
