Job description

Restoration Technician - Water, Fire & Mold | Middlesex, NJ

When a pipe bursts at 2 a.m. or a family comes home to a flooded basement, we're the team that shows up. PuroClean Disaster Response is hiring a full-time Restoration Technician to perform water damage restoration, mold remediation, and fire and smoke cleanup in homes and businesses across Central New Jersey. No restoration experience required - we provide paid, hands-on training and pay for your IICRC industry certifications.

Pay & Schedule

• $18-$25/hour depending on experience, with overtime opportunities
• Full-time, year-round work - this industry doesn't slow down in winter
• Rotating on-call schedule for emergency response (extra earning opportunity)
• Based in Middlesex, NJ, serving Middlesex, Somerset, and Mercer counties

What You’ll Do

• Respond to water damage emergencies: water extraction, flood cleanup, and sewage cleanup in residential and commercial properties
• Set up and monitor professional drying equipment - dehumidifiers, air movers, air scrubbers - and take daily moisture readings
• Perform mold remediation, including containment setup and HEPA cleaning
• Assist with fire and smoke damage restoration, deodorization, and contents cleaning
• Perform controlled demolition (removing wet drywall, flooring, and insulation)
• Document job conditions with photos and notes using our mobile apps

• Available for a rotating on-call schedule

Experience That Transfers Well (Not Required)

Many of our best technicians came from construction, general labor, carpentry, plumbing, HVAC, landscaping, moving, janitorial, or warehouse work. If you’ve done physical work with your hands and take pride in doing it right, we’ll teach you the restoration trade. IICRC certifications (WRT, ASD, AMRT) are a plus - and if you don’t have them, we pay for you to earn them.

Benefits & Perks

• Paid training and company-paid IICRC certification courses
• Defined career path: Technician - Lead Technician - Crew Chief - Project Manager - we promote from within and can show you the exact skills required for each step
• Paid time off and paid holidays
