The restoration industry in the United States continues to grow as property owners face water damage, mold issues, fire events, and emergency cleanups every year. This demand has created a strong need for trained restoration professionals, yet many potential workers believe the field is difficult to enter. Most are unaware that restoration has become an accessible career path for beginners and career changers.

Damage to Dollars, founded by restoration specialist James Rice-Pefia, has expanded its national training program to help new entrepreneurs learn the fundamentals of restoration and launch profitable, ethical service businesses. The program delivers clear, simple instruction designed for individuals with no prior experience.

Training Designed for Beginners and Career Changers

The Damage to Dollars program breaks restoration down into easy-to-follow steps. Participants learn:

- The basics of water and mold restoration

- State licensing rules and legal requirements

- Simple inspection techniques

- Required equipment and how to use it

- How to speak to homeowners during emergencies

- How to price jobs correctly

- Documentation and payment procedures

- How to secure first jobs within 30-60 days

Participants often come from fields such as customer service, retail, construction, transportation, and maintenance. Many are seeking a stable career that can be built quickly without years of schooling.

Opportunities Contractors See Every Day

The program also helps contractors and tradespeople identify opportunities they already walk past on job sites. Common situations such as leaking pipes, storm damage, wet drywall, mold near air handlers, or moisture stains often point to full restoration projects. These jobs can range from $5,000 to $25,000 or more.

Damage to Dollars teaches contractors how to recognize these situations and support property owners with professional restoration solutions.

Focused on Ethics, Safety, and Communication

The curriculum stresses ethics, homeowner communication, and industry standards. The goal is to help new operators build trustworthy businesses that respond correctly during stressful property emergencies.

These resources offer a simple introduction to the industry and help new entrepreneurs understand what restoration businesses do every day.
