Skilled Tradesman – Restoration/Construction

Join to apply for the Skilled Tradesman – Restoration/Construction role at First Onsite Property Restoration
.

As a Skilled Tradesman, you provide a variety of restoration and disaster recovery services when sub‑contractors aren’t an option, ensuring quality workmanship on projects for First Onsite clients. You assist with administrative tasks such as daily field reports, crew sheets, and tracking expenses for projects, but you also provide the physical labor to get things done – from painting to installing, taping and texturing drywall to installing interior and exterior finishes.

You are the muscle for building, construction, and demolition sites and may even participate in mitigation activities, such as water extraction, mold remediation, emergency board‑ups or tarping roofs. Whether loading/unloading materials, machinery, and tools or cleaning and preparing, you maintain safety at all times and adhere to Environmental, Health and Safety protocols.

You don’t hesitate to help the team wherever and whenever you’re needed, as you are willing to travel and are available for emergency/after‑hours/weekend calls. You provide a positive experience to clients during their time of need, and your hard work reassures that First Onsite is the only restoration partner they’ll ever need. You take pride in what you do every day and are thrilled to be part of a team that supports and encourages your professional growth and development.

• Assist with mitigation activities, including water extraction, fire and mold remediation, light demolition, emergency board‑ups, and equipment setup.
