Careers at Hemlock Decks & Porches
Build Your Career With a Company That Builds the Right Way
Hemlock Decks & Porches started with hands-on experience and a family commitment to doing the work right. Owner Teddy Labonte grew up in the trade before launching the company with his father in November 2012, and that same standard guides how we treat the people who work alongside us. We build decks, porches, and outdoor living spaces across the Worcester area, and we are always looking for skilled, motivated people who take pride in their craft.
If you want to grow with a second-generation family business that values quality work and clear communication, we want to hear from you.
Why Work With Us
A Decade of Steady Work
We have completed more than 10,000 residential and commercial projects across the Worcester area. That track record means consistent work and the chance to build a wide range of projects, from custom decks and screened porches to home additions and outdoor living spaces.
Learn From the Best
We are a Trex Platinum Installer and a TimberTech Gold Pro, two of the highest certification levels in the composite decking industry. Working here puts you alongside crews who meet strict installation standards and know premium materials inside and out.
Real Craftsmanship
We care about the details, and we hire people who feel the same way. You will work on projects that demand skill and attention, with a team that backs its work with strong warranties.
Technology That Helps You Do the Job
Our in-house engineer handles structural planning, and we use 3D design and rendering on our projects. That means you spend less time guessing and more time building, with clear plans in hand before the work starts.
Community Roots
We support the community that supports us. Hemlock Decks & Porches sponsors a local youth basketball team and offers a discount to veterans and seniors. When you join our team, you join a company invested in Worcester.
