· Fire/Smoke Cleanup: Perform thorough cleaning, soot removal, sanitization, and deodorization of affected structures and contents.
Demolition & Remediation
· Controlled Demolition: Safely perform selective, controlled demolition of damaged building materials (e.g., drywall, flooring, ceilings, cabinetry) while protecting adjacent unaffected areas.
· Hazardous Material: Assist with or lead projects involving biohazard, mold, or asbestos-containing materials (if certified), strictly following all containment and removal protocols.
· Debris Removal: Efficiently manage the sorting, loading, and disposal of construction debris and waste materials.

· Quality Control: Ensure all work is performed to company, industry (IICRC), and regulatory standards, completing projects on time and within budget/scope.
· Documentation: Maintain meticulous records, including detailed job logs, photos, moisture readings, equipment placement/tracking, and scope changes for project managers and insurance purposes.
· Customer Service: Serve as a professional, empathetic point of contact for clients and homeowners, explaining the work process and providing updates.
