Job description

Who We Are

At Seaside Plumbing, we’re not just fixing plumbing—we’re restoring peace, uplifting lives, and raising the standard of what service in the trades looks like.

We believe:

• Service should feel human, not transactional
• Technicians should be respected, trained, and well-compensated
• Customers should feel confident and informed—not pressured
• And a plumbing career can be something you’re proud of—not just something you do

We’ve built a company where people grow, customers trust us, and the bar is set high.

Let’s Be Clear (Read This First)

This is not for everyone.

This is not just running a cable machine. This is not a “quick fix and move on” role.

This is a high-performance service environment where:

• Communication matters
• Problem-solving matters
• Ownership matters

You will diagnose issues, educate customers, and guide them to confident decisions.

If you don’t like talking to customers, explaining problems, or taking ownership of results—this is not the place for you.

We are where the best come to become elite.

• Perform drain cleaning, jetting, and cable work on residential service calls
• Operate sewer camera equipment to diagnose main line issues
• Identify repair or replacement opportunities through inspections

• Maintain clean, organized equipment and a well-stocked truck
• Train and mentor apprentices on proper drain and diagnostic work
• Complete accurate documentation, invoices, and option sheets

What Success Looks Like Here

• You accurately diagnose issues—not guess
• Customers understand the problem and trust your recommendations
• You hit performance goals while maintaining integrity
• Your work leads to repeat business and referrals
• You take ownership of your calls and your results
• You operate with professionalism and consistency

What Makes This Role Different

This is not just drain cleaning.

We invest heavily in:

• Technical training and diagnostics
• Communication and customer experience
• Personal and professional growth

You won’t just clear drains here— You’ll become a true diagnostic expert and trusted advisor.

Compensation & Benefits

We believe great people deserve to be taken care of.

• Competitive pay: $21–$23/hour (based on experience and performance)
• 100% paid health, dental, and vision (for you AND your family)

• 401(k) with 4% match
• Profit sharing
• Paid vacation, sick time, and holidays
