We're a Pacific Northwest exterior and roof maintenance company founded in 2007 — and we've been quietly building one of the most aggressive growth machines in the industry. Our techs don't punch a clock and pray for Friday. They run their own trucks, own their own routes, and earn based on what they produce. Period.
Here's how it works: you get a fully loaded service truck, all the equipment and materials, a daily route, and the freedom to execute. No micromanaging. No babysitting. You're a one-person operation backed by a company that handles sales, scheduling, marketing, and customer service so you can focus on one thing — delivering premium results and getting paid for it.
Our top techs clear $90K /year. That's not a typo and it's not a ceiling. Base pay goes up to $45/hr, and our bonus structure stacks on top of that with no cap. You sell a service plan? Bonus. You hit your daily target? Bonus. You crush your weekly number? Bigger bonus. The math is simple — your output determines your income.
We specialize in long-term roof health using our proprietary RoofRXTM system — a soft wash treatment that prevents moss regrowth instead of just blasting it off. We also handle exterior washing, gutters, and windows for residential and commercial properties. Hundreds of 5-star reviews, $1M liability insurance on every job, eco-friendly solutions, and a 100% money-back guarantee. Our reputation is the reason the phone doesn't stop ringing.
Culture-wise? We're competitive but we're a team. We track production daily, celebrate wins publicly, and hold each other to a high standard. If you're the type who wants to coast, this isn't the place. If you're the type who wants to outwork everyone and get rewarded for it — welcome home.
Two locations: Bellingham and Lynnwood, WA. Growing fast. Promoting from within. Every crew leader and senior tech started exactly where you'd be starting.
No experience needed — we train you on everything. But bring the attitude. That's the one thing we can't teach.
Salary : $12,000 - $90,000
