Junior Carpenters

Junior carpenters, also known as apprentices, bring hands-on support to construction crews. They help with important tasks that keep projects moving forward. These workers assist with framing, cutting, assembling, and basic installations. They provide the extra help needed to make sure projects stay on track and help senior carpenters work more efficiently.

What junior carpenters do:

Assist with framing and structural work
Cut materials to specifications
Help with basic installations
Support senior carpenters with daily tasks
Keep work areas clean and organized

Zero Foxtrot’s junior carpenters are selected for attention to detail, accuracy, reliability, and the ability to adapt quickly. All our junior carpenters hold OSHA 10 certification at a minimum, with many holding OSHA 30 certification for more complex projects. With their assistance, you can count on steady progress and quality work. “We make sure our junior carpenters learn proper techniques from day one. Good training means safer job sites and better results for our clients,” says Eric Wilmot, Zero Foxtrot Owner.

Trained General Labor

General labor is the backbone of any jobsite. Trained general laborers can handle tasks like debris cleanup, site prep, and miscellaneous support tasks that allow the senior tradespeople to focus on specialized work.

General labor tasks include:

Moving materials around the job site
Cleaning up debris and waste
Preparing work areas for trades
Loading and unloading trucks
Basic site maintenance and organization

While the pricing here varies significantly based on different tasks at hand, “…the average cost of labor for skilled construction trades typically ranges from $20 to $50 per hour or $200 to $400 per day, depending on location, project complexity, contractor expertise, and demand,” states 247 Pro.

We provide dependable team members who are safety-trained and ready to adapt to changing site needs. Every Zero Foxtrot general laborer holds OSHA 10 certification, with supervisors and leads holding OSHA 30 certification. This ensures steady progress from start to finish. “For federal projects, every worker needs proper training and background checks. This keeps projects running smoothly and meets all government requirements,” explains Drew Weismiller, O&I Federal/Commercial Contracts Team Lead.

Lift Operators

Operating lifts requires certification and experience to ensure safety and precision. Working high up on lifts or platforms is one of the most dangerous parts of construction work. That’s why proper training and certification are so important. Our lift operators are trained to manage a range of equipment safely and efficiently.

Types of lifts our team can operate:

Scissor lifts for straight vertical access
Aerial platforms for various heights
Boom lifts for extended reach work
Indoor electric models for quiet operation
Outdoor diesel and gas-powered units

H3: Boom Lifts

Also known as cherry pickers, boom lifts provide elevated access for tasks like construction, roofing, utility maintenance, and even disaster relief. With telescopic and articulated options, they offer both vertical and horizontal reach, making them ideal for maneuvering around obstacles.

While the cost to hire a boom lift operator varies, the average rate in the industry ranges from $15 to $37 an hour, according to ZipRecruiter. The average rate in Loudoun County, Virginia, is $26 an hour.

Zero Foxtrot’s lift operators are OSHA-certified, safety-conscious, and skilled in handling both indoor electric lifts and outdoor heavy-duty diesel or gas-powered models. “Working with lifts can be dangerous, so all our operators complete safety training and regular refresher courses. This protects both the operator and everyone working below,” states Eric Wilmot, Zero Foxtrot Owner.

Experienced Central Telehandlers

Telehandlers combine the reach of a crane with the versatility of a forklift. This makes them essential for construction work. These machines can lift, move, and place materials with great precision. Our certified telehandler operators are skilled in moving, stacking, and placing materials safely and accurately.

What telehandler operators do:

Perform daily equipment safety checks
Follow load charts and weight limits
Coordinate with crews for safe operations
Move materials to exact locations
Keep detailed operation records

The price of hiring a central telehandler operator varies based on the size and complexity of the project; however, ZipRecruiter reports an average range of $14 to $33 an hour, with the average being $24 an hour in Loudoun County, Virginia and nationwide.

With OSHA certification and hands-on training, Zero Foxtrot telehandler operators bring both technical knowledge and attention to detail, ensuring reliable performance on every site. “Government projects require detailed documentation and precise material handling. Our operators know how to follow load charts and keep accurate records,” notes Drew Weismiller, O&I Federal/Commercial Contracts Team Lead.

Heavy Equipment Operators & Handlers

Heavy equipment plays a big role on construction sites. Whether it’s lifting materials, preparing the ground, or moving heavy loads, having skilled operators makes all the difference. They know how to handle the machines safely and efficiently. This helps projects stay on schedule while reducing the risk of accidents. Forklifts and skid steers are two of the most common machines that need operators. Each has its own strengths for different types of work.

Benefits of skilled operators:

Reduced equipment downtime
Fewer workplace accidents
Better project schedules
Lower maintenance costs
Proper equipment care

The cost for heavy equipment operators can vary based on experience and what they are operating; however, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the 2024 median pay for Construction Equipment Operators is $28.04.

Forklifts (Sit-Down)

Sit-down forklift operators are trained to move and stack palletized materials quickly and safely. They perform daily equipment inspections, follow OSHA-mandated guidelines, and are especially effective for long shifts, heavier loads, and extended travel distances.

Skid Steers

Compact yet powerful, skid steers are invaluable for site preparation, excavation, grading, demolition, and material handling. With multiple attachments, from buckets to augers to hydraulic breakers, they can tackle tasks ranging from trenching to concrete breaking to landscaping.

Zero Foxtrot’s equipment handlers bring versatility and technical skill, allowing your site to run smoothly and efficiently while meeting safety standards. “Our equipment operators do daily safety checks and know how to use different attachments. This keeps projects moving and prevents costly breakdowns,” emphasizes Owner, Eric Wilmot.
