Step 2: Inspection and Water Damage Assessment
Our Water Damage Restoration Process
Once the crew arrives, they will determine the scope of your water damage. We inspect and test to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration. The crew will be happy to answer any questions you will have on the process. Please note that they are not adjusters or agents and cannot answer specific questions on coverage questions. Once all of your questions have been answered, they will ask you to sign paperwork which states that you are allowing us to work on your home and that you agree to allow the insurance company pay us for the necessary work or if there is limited or no coverage agree to pay for the work yourself.
Identify and Stop the Water Source
We will check for the source of moisture in your home or business. The source must be stopped before any restoration or drying of the building can be successful.

Survey the Extent of the Water Damage and Inspect the Premises
