  • 2–4% of collected revenue from qualifying jobs
  • Additional pay after earning ASCS certification
  • Paid NADCA training, examination, and approved study time
  • Overtime opportunities when available
  • Advancement as the division grows
  • Company vehicle, tools, and professional equipment

  • Ability to pass applicable background and driving‑record checks
  • Willingness to earn ASCS certification within the required period

Current ASCS certification, dryer‑vent experience, HVAC or restoration experience, and previous supervisory experience are preferred but not required.
