Construction Laborer at PuroClean of Charleston

PuroClean of Charleston is seeking a Construction Laborer. Recent college graduates with local connections in Charleston are encouraged to apply. We help customers recover after water damage, fire damage, and mold. This is a veteran-owned operation with a high bar for trust and professionalism. Our teams are in people's homes when they're stressed and vulnerable, so we hire for integrity, reliability, and work ethic. Veterans and candidates with disciplined backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.

This is a hands-on field role supporting the Truck Lead. You do not need restoration certifications to be successful here. If you are dependable, physically capable, and take direction well, we can teach you the technical side.

• Set up and move restoration equipment (air movers, dehumidifiers, containment materials)
• Help with pack-outs/contents handling and jobsite organization
• Follow PPE and jobsite safety standards
• Support job documentation as instructed (photos, basic notes, measurements)
• Maintain a clean, professional jobsite and respectful customer interactions

Qualifications

• Strong work ethic, reliability, and willingness to learn
• Comfortable with physical labor in real-world environments (heat, humidity, tight spaces)
• Calm, respectful presence in customer homes and commercial sites
• Any related background is helpful (moving/pack-outs, construction, demolition, detailing, car wash, warehouse, general labor)
• Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record
• Willing to complete a background check upon a conditional offer
• Willing and able to perform hard physical labor (lifting, carrying, demo work)

Pay, Benefits & Growth

• Full-time or Part-time
• Pay: $18 to $24/hour (based on experience)
• Clear pathway to become a senior technician and Truck Lead as you gain experience/certs
• On-the-job training and support for industry certifications over time (role-dependent)
• PTO/holidays/healthcare options may be available based on role fit and tenure (final details confirmed during hiring)

At PuroClean Charleston, we serve people on some of the worst days of their lives, after water damage, fire, or mold has disrupted their home or business. That responsibility demands more than technical skill. It requires integrity, professionalism, and trust.

This is a veteran-owned operation built with a high standard for how work is done and how customers are treated. We are rebuilding the team from the ground up with people who take pride in doing things the right way, supporting each other in the field, and delivering work we can stand behind. Here, your work matters. You are not a number on a crew; you are part of a team setting the culture, the standards, and the reputation of a growing restoration operation in the Charleston community.
