Worthington & Shagen Custom Builder, Inc. is seeking an experienced Renovation Technician to join their team. This role is ideal for a skilled carpenter or technician with strong problem-solving abilities and the ability to work independently while representing the company professionally in clients' homes and on active projects.
At roughly $35/hr, this posting sits about 17% above the $30/hr median for welding jobs across Pennsylvania — toward the top of a $25–$36/hr middle band drawn from 161 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 74% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. Pay that far above local median usually comes attached to something: a harder cert requirement, travel, night shift, or overtime that isn't really optional. Worth establishing which before you accept.

The most active employers in Pennsylvania at the moment, by number of open welding reqs, are Rhoads Industries (12), Department of the Navy - Agency Wide (8), and Phillips Tank & Structure (8).

Within Pennsylvania, the best-paying metros we track by median hourly rate are Philadelphia at $32/hr, Braddock at $31/hr, and Malvern at $30/hr. If you can relocate or commute, that spread is worth factoring in.
