A rare opportunity to grow your own installation business with full support from a 30-year brand.
Already running your own contracting business?
You might be a fit for our Industry Partner Network. Work with Trellis as a vetted installation partner on a per-project basis.
Whether you're a seasoned contractor ready to hand off the business stress, or an ambitious builder looking to launch your own operation, this Builder-in-Residence Program is built to support your next move. This program works for businesses of all sizes—solo builders to small teams to existing operations looking to grow inside a national brand system.
Tired of the business side? We’ll handle the back office so you can focus on the craft. Stay in the field. Build with pride.
Just starting out? This is your chance to build a real business with support—leads, branding, and a potential path to ownership.
If you're an entrepreneur at heart, you already know it. You don’t want to clock in and take orders—you want to build something of your own. You could start your own business from scratch, or you could build your business within the Trellis ecosystem.
As a Builder-in-Residence, you’ll keep your independence, control your time, and grow your income—all while getting real support on the back end. No corporate nonsense. Just a smarter way to launch or scale a business you’re proud to own.
