Our Focus
Why Garage Door Companies Struggle to Find Good People
The candidates you need aren't browsing job boards — they're already working. Most business owners and managers don't have the time to invite qualified candidates to apply every day like we do.
The Labor Pool Is Smaller Than You Think
Qualified garage door technicians are rare. The pool of experienced installers and service techs is thin — and most of the good ones aren't looking for work.
Technical Skills Take Time to Develop
Door balance, spring tension, opener diagnostics — these aren't skills you can screen for on a resume. Evaluating real technical ability requires industry knowledge most hirers don't have. We do.
Seasonality Creates Pressure at the Worst Time
Spring and fall demand spikes hit fast. By the time you realize you're short-staffed, the season is already here — and the best candidates have already accepted other offers.
Culture Mismatch Costs You Customers
A technician who doesn't communicate well in a customer's home — or who cuts corners under pressure — doesn't just underperform. They cost you reviews, referrals, and repeat business.
Job Boards Attract the Wrong People
Posting on Indeed or ZipRecruiter mostly surfaces applicants who need a job — not skilled tradespeople who are good at the work. You end up screening resumes that waste your time.
Long Hiring Cycles Stall Your Growth
Every week a role sits open, your existing techs carry more weight, your response times suffer, and your revenue capacity shrinks. The hiring process shouldn't take months.
A Note From Our Founder
Meghan founded Trustal Recruiting after decades of working inside and alongside leading home service companies. Over the years, she saw firsthand how growth often stalls when good businesses simply can't find good people. The marketing may be working and the phones may be ringing, but without the right team in place, progress slows. Instead of stepping back, she decided to create a recruiting solution specifically designed for home service companies.
Today, Trustal helps small and mid-sized locally owned businesses grow by connecting them with dependable, skilled people who strengthen their teams. Meghan understands this industry because she's lived it — it's fast-paced, hands-on, and built around serving customers well. Her mission is simple: help great companies find great people so they can continue building something lasting.

How We Work
Most recruiting firms hand you a stack of resumes and call it a day.
That's not recruiting — that's searching. We do the work most owners don't have time for, and we do it the way we'd want someone to do it for us.
Technician Psychology
We understand what motivates field techs — how they think, what they value, and what makes them stay. That knowledge shapes every candidate we evaluate.
Compensation Structure
From flat-rate to hourly to performance pay, we know how trades compensation works — so we attract candidates who are aligned before the first conversation.
Dispatch & Call Center Operations
We know how the back office runs. That means we can recruit for CSRs, dispatchers, and call center roles with the same precision as field positions.
Sales & Tech Roles
From in-home sales reps to service managers who close — we recruit across the full revenue-generating side of a home service business.
We Know The Trades
Our founder has worked in leadership inside home service companies. We're not learning your industry — we already know what's required in the field.
Retention, Not Just Placement
We match for culture and values, not just credentials. Hires who stay are worth more than hires who fit the job description and leave in 90 days.
Flat-Rate, No Surprises.
No commission-based fees that inflate when you hire well. You know the cost upfront, and it doesn't change based on the candidate's salary.
