Full Job Description About Garage Force ROC:

Garage Force ROC is a premier provider of premium concrete floor coatings in the Rochester area. Specializing in high-end, extremely durable Polyurea and Epoxy coating systems for residential garages, basements, and commercial spaces. We pride ourselves on unmatched quality, meticulous attention to detail, and a superior customer experience.

The Role:

We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Lead Floor Coating Installer / Crew Supervisor to take ownership of our daily job site operations. This is a leadership position. You will not just be pouring and rolling; you will be managing a dedicated installation crew, overseeing the entire project lifecycle from surface prep to final topcoat, and ensuring every floor meets Garage Force's strict quality standards. If you have a strong background in construction, painting, or property maintenance, and you know how to lead a crew to the finish line in the demanding Rochester weather, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities:

Crew Leadership & Management:

Supervise, train, and direct a crew of 1-3 installers. Maintain job site morale, enforce safety protocols, and ensure strict adherence to the daily schedule.

Job Site Preparation, Execution & Quality Control:

Oversee and execute the complete Garage Force coating process. This includes moisture/pH testing, concrete grinding, shot blasting, crack repair, mixing products, entering warranty details, and superior application techniques of various coating systems such as flake, quartz, medici, metallics, etc.

Equipment & Inventory Management:

Maintain the jobsite trailer, manage daily inventory of liquids, system specific needs, and perform on-site troubleshooting and basic maintenance of heavy equipment (grinders, industrial vacs, generators).

Customer Experience:

Serve as the face of Garage Force ROC on the job site. Conduct pre-job walkthroughs with homeowners, manage expectations, complete the job completion checklist, and review post installation instructions upon completion.

Problem Solving:

Make executive, on-the-fly decisions when dealing with unpredictable concrete conditions, equipment issues, or weather changes to keep the project moving forward without sacrificing quality.

Requirements & Qualifications:

Leadership Experience:

Minimum 3+ years of experience supervising crews in construction, commercial painting, landscaping, or related trades.

Trade Skills:

Experience with surface preparation, painting, or applying industrial coatings is preferred. Must understand the importance of meticulous prep work and precision application. Experience with equipment surface grinders is a plus, but not required.

Mechanical Aptitude:

Ability to troubleshoot and perform basic maintenance on construction equipment (changing belts, fixing vac hoses, etc.).

Physicality & Resilience:

Must be capable of performing physical labor for 8-10 hours a day, including lifting 75+ lbs. Must be comfortable working in unconditioned environments (hot summers and cold winters).

Professionalism:

Excellent communication skills with a track record of top-tier customer service.

Logistics:

Must possess reliable transportation and a valid Driver's License with a clean driving record. Why Join Garage Force ROC? We offer comprehensive on-the-job training in our products and application techniques/procedures. As a Lead Installer, you will have the opportunity to help build a team from the foundation up, collaborate on business processes, strategies, and investments, help define the 'culture' of the organization, and take on other advanced challenges.
