Prepare for your restoration project
Look beyond the cleanup to understand the full recovery plan.
Property recovery may involve several types of work. Water extraction and drying address a different need from repairing drywall, replacing finishes or rebuilding a room. Ask each provider which parts of the project are included, which may require another trade and how the stages will be coordinated.
Before choosing a provider, request a written scope with the affected areas, proposed work, exclusions and payment terms. If an insurance claim is involved, keep the estimate and project records together and discuss your individual policy questions with your insurer. You decide whether to hire a provider and agree to the work.
