Install radon mitigation systems in residential homes following a documented process. Each day starts with reviewing job specs, pulling materials, and loading your truck. You run your jobs independently, collect payment on-site, close out the job in the system same day, and leave every site cleaner than you found it.
You’ll also handle service calls on existing systems and complete post-install steps at every job: customer check-in, yard sign, and door hangers before you leave.
- Reads the job spec before arriving — every time
- Holds their own quality standard, not just the minimum
- Closes paperwork the same day, without being reminded
- Works independently without needing check‑ins
- Follows a proven system and improves it when they see a better way
- Takes the work seriously — not as a job, as a craft
Most states require a credential to install radon mitigation systems for compensation. If you're not already licensed, we get you through it within 30 days — course, exam prep, and all fees covered by us.
Backgrounds that translate well: electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, general contractors, handymen. If you're good with your hands and have a track record of doing things right, the technical piece is trainable.
- 50% company-paid health insurance
- Vision, dental, life, and disability coverage
- Critical illness coverage
- Retirement plan with company match
