What You Bring
  • 2+ years of flooring installation experience (carpet and/or LVP preferred)  
  • Ability to read measurements and perform basic math  
  • Strong attention to detail and craftsmanship  
  • Valid driver's license with a clean record  
  • Ability to lift 50+ lbs and perform physical work daily  
What to Expect
  • Work in residential and commercial properties impacted by fire, water, or storm damage  
  • A mix of independent work and team collaboration

Why Paul Davis?
  • PROMOTES FROM WITHIN 
  • RAISES & BONUSES
