RestoTech Solutions · Edmonton, AB · Full time · $25 to $35 per hour PLUS ON-CALL PAY
When a pipe bursts or a basement floods, we are the crew that shows up. RestoTech Solutions handles water, mould and fire restoration for homeowners, property managers and insurance clients across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

- More hours, steadier pay. RestoTech is part of a group of companies that also does construction, renovation, and cleaning and maintenance work. When emergency calls are slow, you can pick up hours on those sites when available. Your skills move with you.
