Now Hiring: Disaster Response Technician (Fire & Water Restoration)

Looking for a hands-on career where your work actually matters?

SERVPRO® Team Carpenter is growing our Fire & Water Division and we’re hiring motivated technicians who want steady work, real skills, and long-term growth in a fast-moving, essential industry.

This role is active, physical, and never boring. You’ll help families and businesses recover after fires, floods, and emergencies — and see the impact of your work every day.

If you enjoy working with your hands, being part of a tight-knit crew, and building a career (not just clocking hours), we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

You’ll respond to fire and water damage sites and help restore properties safely and professionally. Your day may include:

Hands-on physical work
Working in attics, crawlspaces, and tight spaces
Lifting and moving materials
Using PPE and safety equipment when needed
Following clear safety and documentation procedures

This is skilled restoration work — not janitorial and not typical construction — and full training is provided.

Core Responsibilities

Set up and break down restoration job sites
Operate drying, extraction, and cleaning equipment
Perform demolition and material removal when required
Keep job sites clean, organized, and safe
Communicate with supervisors and teammates
Follow safety and documentation standards

Minimum Requirements

Valid driver’s license & reliable transportation
Able to lift 50+ lbs
Comfortable working on ladders and in confined spaces
Willing to work in wet, dirty, or damaged environments
Able to pass a background check
Reliable attendance and punctuality

What We Offer

Competitive pay with clear advancement opportunities
Paid training & industry certifications
Benefits package
Long-term career path — we promote from within
Supportive, team-oriented culture
Stable work in a recession-resistant industry

Who Does Well in This Role

You might be a great fit if you:

Like staying active on the job
Take pride in doing quality work
Show up on time and work well with a team
Stay calm under pressure
Want to grow your skills and build a career

Why People Stay

You’ll see real results at the end of every day, help people during difficult moments, and build skills that open doors to higher-level roles like Lead Technician, Crew Chief, Project Manager, or Estimator.
