PuroClean of South Chesapeake is growing, and we're hiring Mitigation Technicians with the goal of developing the right people into future Lead Technicians who earn $26-$34.50

No restoration experience is required. We will train the right people.


Who We're Looking For

Restoration is about more than cleaning up water, mold, fire, or biohazard damage. We meet people during some of the most stressful situations they may experience in their homes or businesses.

We want people who care about helping people.


We're looking for team members with:

  • A strong work ethic and dependable attendance

  • Good judgment and problem-solving skills

  • Great communication and customer service

  • Pride in doing quality work

  • Respect for customers' homes and belongings

  • A willingness to learn and take on more responsibility

  • A team-first attitude

We believe in finishing the job, not watching the clock. Some days run longer than expected, and we stay until the work that needs to be completed that day is done.

We also take care of what has been entrusted to us, including our equipment, tools, vehicles, shop, and customers' property.

Our goal is to leave every customer's home better than we found it.


What You'll Do

  • Respond to water, mold, fire, smoke, and biohazard losses

  • Perform water extraction and structural drying

  • Set up and monitor drying and air filtration equipment

  • Perform mold remediation, cleaning, and demolition

  • Take moisture readings and document job progress

  • Protect and move customer belongings

  • Maintain equipment, tools, vehicles, and our facility

  • Communicate professionally and compassionately with customers

  • Follow company safety procedures and industry standards

What We're Looking For

  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record

  • Dependable, punctual, and ready to work

  • Comfortable with physically demanding, hands-on work

  • Able to regularly lift 50+ pounds and occasionally up to 75 pounds

  • Comfortable working in crawl spaces, attics, heat, and other challenging environments

  • Available for a rotating after-hours emergency on-call schedule

  • Restoration or construction experience is a plus, but not required

  • IICRC certifications are a plus

Pay, Benefits & Growth

  • $20/hour starting base pay with bonuses can bring hourly up to $26.62/hour

  • Overtime opportunities

  • Monthly & Quarterly performance bonus opportunities

  • Paid training and IICRC certification opportunities

  • Pay increases as skills and certifications develop

  • Tool allowance after 90 days for eligible employees

  • Paid time off

  • Company-provided specialized equipment and PPE

Build a Career With Us

We want to promote from within and develop technicians who can eventually run projects and lead other team members.

Mitigation Technician: $48,000–$59,000+ annually with performance bonuses
Lead Technician: $60,000–$80,000+ annually with performance bonuses
Specialist: $64,000+ annually with performance bonuses
Master Certified Technician: $73,000+ annually with performance bonuses
Production Management: $80,000–$95,000+ earning potential


Advancement is earned through reliability, quality, communication, technical ability, good judgment, and leadership.
