Apprentice - Water Restoration Technician

Job Description

Job Description

Every day at Woodard brings a new adventure. You'll encounter every situation imaginable as you enter homes or businesses that have sustained water, fire, or storm damage.

You and your skilled team will demolish damaged property, set up extraction and drying equipment, clean, pack up belongings, and whatever else is needed to help your customer get their life back as quickly as possible.

You'll be deemed a life saver, a hero, a rescuer, by a home or business owner who are filled with gratitude for your help in their time of need.

If you have the tenacity and grit to squat, lift, kneel, climb, crawl, and everything in between in places that are sometimes dark, smelly, hot, cold, and may require safety equipment, then you will fit right in with your team.

Each day will be unique, and you will seldom be bored!
