1-800 WATER DAMAGE of Columbus Northeast

We’re building one of the most responsive, professional mitigation teams in Columbus—and we’re looking for experienced technicians who take pride in doing the job right.

This is not an entry-level position. If you already understand the basics of mitigation and want to grow with a company that values quality, accountability, and professionalism, we want to talk.

What Makes Us Different

· No chaos, no guessing– clear systems, expectations, and communication

· Clean, organized jobs– we don’t cut corners on drying or documentation

· Tight, respectful crew– no drama, just people who work hard and have each other’s backs

· Direct access to ownership– your voice matters, and your work is noticed

· Real growth path– certifications, advancement, and leadership opportunities as we grow

We’re not a corporate machine—you’ll be part of building something that stands out in this market.

What You’ll Do

· Perform water, fire, and mold mitigation services

· Set up drying equipment, monitor jobs, and document progress

· Handle demolition, cleanup, and job site prep

· Communicate clearly with team members and customers

· Follow established processes to ensure quality and consistency

What We’re Looking For

· 1+ year of mitigation, restoration, construction, or similar hands-on experience

· Basic understanding of drying principles, equipment, and job flow

· Strong work ethic and reliability—you show up ready to work

· Ability to handle physically demanding work

· Valid driver’s license and clean driving record

Bonus if you have:

· IICRC certifications (WRT, ASD, etc.)

· Experience with moisture mapping and documentation

Growth & Opportunity

We invest in our people. You’ll have opportunities to:

· Earn certifications (IICRC and more)

· Take on more responsibility

· Move into leadership roles

If you want more than just a job—and are looking to build a career in restoration—this is the place.

This Is NOT for You If:

· You cut corners or rush through jobs

· You need constant supervision

· You don’t take urgency and professionalism seriously

Pay & Schedule

· $20–$25/hour(based on experience)

· Overtime opportunities during busy periods

· Bonus Opportunities

· Steady, year-round work

We help homeowners and businesses recover from some of their worst days. The work is fast-paced, meaningful, and requires people who care about doing it right.
