About Us
Creative Integrity is a custom residential renovator and builder based in Toronto’s west end. We specialize in medium and large-scale, architecturally driven renovations that bring older Toronto homes up to — and beyond — modern standards for craftsmanship, comfort, durability, and performance.
As our name suggests, integrity is at the core of everything we do. Whether it’s the integrity of our relationships with clients and trade partners, or the structural integrity of the homes we work on, we believe quality starts with honesty, accountability, and pride in our craft.
We genuinely enjoy what we do, and we care deeply about the experience our clients have throughout the renovation process. Our goal is to create beautiful, functional spaces that improve the way people live in their homes for years to come.
The Role
We are currently seeking an experienced Lead Carpenter / Site Supervisor to join our growing team.
This position is ideal for someone with strong hands-on carpentry skills who is also comfortable taking ownership of project coordination, site organization, scheduling, and communication. You’ll play a key role in maintaining workflow, quality standards, and a positive jobsite environment.
Beyond technical ability, we place a high value on personality and culture fit. We’re looking for someone who is humble, collaborative, professional, and enjoys being part of a supportive team that takes pride in doing great work.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to connect.
