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
