Picking the Right Restoration Company

8/22/2019 (Permalink)

When it comes to property damage from natural disasters, business owners face especially high risks. FEMA has reported that 40 to 60% of business owners are unable to continue operating following a disaster.

The best way for business owners to prepare for a disaster is by putting a plan in place, and picking the right restoration company is an integral part of that. By knowing what to look for, business owners can trust that their business is in good hands. Here are some of the qualities to look for in a commercial restoration company:

Following a natural disaster, damages should be addressed quickly. Even a few hours of letting water or fire damage sit idly can cause the damage to compound, requiring more time to restore and thus impacting the business’ bottom line. Finding a company with a quick emergency response is key to getting back to business faster.

We’re able to guarantee a quick response time in part due to our emergency line, which is on ²⁴⁄₇. This allows us to take action right away when damage is called in so business owners can focus on other important tasks involved in reopening.

An employee’s training is an investment, but it is one that has one of the largest impacts on the quality of work. Knowing you are getting a well-trained team will provide reassurance that your business is in good hands.

The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) releases guidelines for what restoration professionals should know, which is what we use as the basis for training our employees. We also provide supplemental education such as online learning courses and certification programs to encourage a continued environment of learning.
