Senior Hardscape Consultant / Site Inspector
Paver Restore | Waterloo Region, Ontario
Full-Time | $22–$26 per Hour + Performance Bonuses | Mileage Reimbursed
You've spent years in hardscapes. Now put that expertise to work in a different way.
Paver Restore is the leading paving stone restoration company in Waterloo Region. We don't replace surfaces — we restore them. Our clients preserve their investment, and we deliver results that last.
As we continue to grow, we're looking for an experienced hardscape professional to become the first point of contact for our clients and play a key role in assessing projects before they reach our production team.
This is not a sales position.
This is not a labour position.
This is one of the most knowledge-intensive and important roles in our company.
What You'll Do
You will be the first Paver Restore representative a client meets.
Each day, you'll travel throughout Waterloo Region, typically completing four to six site visits. Your role is to assess hardscape surfaces, identify issues, determine the cause of failures, and recommend the appropriate repair scope.
You will:
- Conduct on-site hardscape assessments
- Ask homeowners the right questions to fully understand project needs
- Capture 3D scans of properties using Polycam
- Record detailed scope videos for our estimating team
- Document repair recommendations and project requirements
- Qualify leads and determine whether projects are a good fit
- Provide complete and accurate handoffs to our estimating team
Your goal is to provide our estimators with everything they need to prepare a proposal without requiring additional clarification.
What Success Looks Like
A successful day includes:
- Four to six completed site visits
- Homeowners who feel informed, respected, and confident
- Clear scope videos recorded at each property
- Accurate documentation of labour requirements, materials, and project scope
- 3D scans uploaded and organized
- Scope videos submitted before the end of the day
- No follow-up questions from the estimating team the next morning
Who You Are
You have years — and likely decades — of experience in hardscape construction.
You have built projects, diagnosed failures, managed crews, estimated jobs, or operated your own business. You understand how paving stone systems are built, why they fail, and how they should be repaired properly.

You are:
- Professional and trustworthy
- Comfortable speaking with homeowners
- An excellent listener
- Detail-oriented
- Organized and dependable
- Comfortable using technology in the field
Homeowners trust you because you know your craft and communicate clearly.
