Job Description
When a family comes home to a flooded basement, a fire-damaged kitchen, or a mold-riddled wall, someone has to show up and make it right. That's this job — and it matters more than most people realize. Our client is a growing, family-owned property restoration company operating across Northeastern Pennsylvania as part of one of the most recognized names in the restoration industry, with six locations spanning the region and a 24/7 commitment to the communities they serve. They've built a team of IICRC-certified technicians, invested in industry-leading equipment, and created a genuine path from day-one technician all the way to crew lead, production manager, and beyond. Dan — their COO — started as a technician himself. If you're a hardworking, dependable person with any background in construction, trades, or hands-on labor and you want a job with real room to grow, this team wants to talk to you.
What You'll Own
• Respond to water, fire, smoke, and mold damage jobs at residential and commercial properties — often on an urgent, emergency basis
• Perform mitigation and restoration work including water extraction, structural drying, demolition of damaged materials, cleaning, and debris removal
• Set up, operate, and monitor drying and restoration equipment including air movers, dehumidifiers, and specialty tools
• Document job conditions, take photos, and record daily progress accurately for project files and insurance coordination
• Interact with property owners and clients on-site in a professional, compassionate manner — you are often meeting people on their worst day
• Participate in an on-call weekend rotation and emergency response schedule — overtime is available and consistent
• Grow your skills through ongoing IICRC training, both online and in the field, working toward certifications that advance your career
Requirements:
• Any background in construction, general labor, trades, landscaping, moving, cleaning, or other physically demanding hands-on work — restoration experience is a plus, not a requirement
• A reliable, show-up-every-day work ethic — this team runs on people they can count on
• Willingness to work on-call weekend rotations and take advantage of consistent overtime opportunities
• A growth mindset — the candidates who thrive here are the ones who want to build a career, not just fill a shift
• Valid driver's license and clean driving record
• Ability to perform physical work including lifting, bending, carrying equipment, and working in confined or uncomfortable spaces
• Bilingual candidates are welcome
Benefits:
• $20–$25 per hour, based on experience
• Consistent overtime availability — this is a role where your paycheck reflects your effort
• Relocation assistance available for the right candidate
• On-the-job IICRC certification training — the company pays for your credentials
• A clear, real career path: Technician → Crew Lead → Production Manager → Project Manager
• Stable, full-time employment with a locally rooted, family-run company backed by a nationally recognized brand
• Benefits details to be confirmed with client prior to posting
