Full Job Description

Welcome to Merit Restorations.

We specialize in mitigating and rebuilding residential and commercial properties damaged by fire, water, storms, and other disasters. We partner with leading insurance carriers and handle everything from emergency cleanup to complete rebuilds, with a focus on safety, integrity, and advocacy. As entrepreneurs, we take full ownership of the work we do and the families we serve.

At Merit, our purpose is simple and non-negotiable: we work together as a team so we can change lives. Teamwork is the foundation of everything we do—because teamwork creates impact, and impact changes lives. We exist to help people, and the only way we do that at the highest level is by moving as one team, aligned in mission, values, and execution.

Our mission: we’re a team of people committed to delivering the best service and providing extraordinary experiences along the way— A team of people. Best service. Extraordinary experiences.

Every decision at Merit runs through the same value filters: servant leadership, innovation, gratitude, growth, impact, honor, and grit. That’s how we think. That’s how we operate. That’s how we show up every day.

To keep the team aligned, we hold tight to radical clarity and radical transparency—knowing what we’re building, why it matters, how we win, and where we stand. We move with one purpose and one language across every office and every market, because the truth is simple: when we work together, both families win—the families we serve and the families inside our company.

Everything we build—systems, training, markets, scoreboards, structure—exists to reinforce one aim: move as ONE. When we move as one team with purpose, clarity, and grit, there is nothing we can’t do.

Together. Forward. Always.
