Position Summary

Our Installation Professionals spend the most time on-site with our homeowners installing products and solutions at their homes. We are looking for individuals with a high level of integrity who take pride in their work and are always willing to learn to provide our clients with WOW service. Our Production Team gathers every Monday Morning at our Office in Toano, VA. We use the time to train on any challenges we’ve encountered and work together to develop solutions and celebrate wins. 

How does it work? Your morning starts at our office in Toano, VA. You’ll arrive on-site and receive your work orders for the day. This will be the job(s) you will be installing, the materials you will need, and the details of the project. You will load your truck for the day and set off to the client’s home. As an installation professional, you will arrive on-site and introduce yourself to the homeowner. You’ll review the project with them, answer any questions, and set to work. You’ll check in with the homeowner halfway through the job to give them an update on the progress and see if they have any more questions. Once the installation is complete, you will take photos of the work for the client’s records and ours and ensure the job site is clean and free of debris and nails, and your truck is neatly packed. You will do a final check-in with the homeowner, show them the work completed, and ensure they are happy with the job, so if any touch-ups are needed, we can complete them right then and there.
