Safely operate basic hand tools and power tools (hammers, pry bars, utility knives, reciprocating saws).
Haul, bag, and transport demolition debris from interior work areas to staging containers.
Assist technicians with water-damage mitigation, drying-equipment setup, and environmental controls.
Follow project-specific safety procedures, containment rules, and PPE requirements.
Communicate site hazards, unexpected structural conditions, or safety concerns to crew leaders.
What We're Looking For
Basic construction, interior demolition, remodeling, or comparable physical labor experience.
Demonstrated capability to safely use basic hand tools and relevant power tools.
Ability to follow detailed technical and safety instructions from crew leaders.
Reliable transportation to report to jobsites and staging locations in Indianapolis, IN.
Dependable attendance, strong safety awareness, and physical endurance for demolition work.
Nice to Have

Specific trade exposure in drywall removal, flooring tear-out, framing, or remodeling.
Experience operating power tools in residential or commercial construction settings.
