The nation is facing a shortage of qualified tradespeople to fill open jobs, complete repairs and continue the proud tradition of quality craftsmanship, and it is time to shine a light on a skilled trades workforce that plays a significant role in helping homeowners across America keep their greatest investment protected and maintained.

“The skilled trades industry will continue to be fundamental to our economy, and we believe it’s important to help students see the trades for what they really are: compelling and rewarding careers where manual craftsmanship intersects with technology,” said Tony Bacos, Frontdoor senior vice president and chief digital officer.

In addition, the company demonstrated its powerful Streem remote video communication platform, which contractors in multiple trades are using, as well as leading brands in a range of industries, to expedite diagnostics and elevate the customer experience.

“There are lucrative opportunities in the skilled trades field, and we are committed to do our part to fuel the pipeline of trades women and men - now and in the future,” said Bacos.
