Should your property suffer from any kind of accident, it is important to act as quickly as possible in order to avoid further damages. If a contractor isn’t prepared to work on your home at a moments notice, they may not have the infrastructure or knowledge necessary to get the job done. A professional restoration contractor offers service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days out of the year, employs its own team of carpenters, and has an emergency 800 number to respond to your calls at any time of the day or night. A contractor who can respond quickly can help to avoid any further damage to your property and will ensure the project has a safe and thorough plan in place before construction begins.
Why Hire A Restoration Contractor?
Many property owners are often unaware of the difference between a restoration contractor and a general contractor. While most general contractors focus strictly on new construction and remodeling, restorations contractors work exclusively with the insurance industry and their policyholders. They have the experience and knowledge that are needed to repair properties that have been damaged by fire, water, smoke or wind. It’s important to remember there is a difference between restoring a damaged property as opposed to remodeling an existing home.
Helping to Navigate the Claims Process
Finally, restorations contractors are very familiar with insurance companies, their claims process, and how these companies will reimburse you for repairs. Having a contractor that specializes in insurance related repairs can be very helpful in helping you to expedite your claim. Restoration companies use the same estimating process and software that insurance adjusters use, which will speed up the time on a claim settlement so you can get funded quickly and put this disaster behind you.
Emergency restoration contractors see all types of disasters and accidents on a regular basis. This gives them the upper hand over any other types of contractors by making sure your loss is handled properly the first time around. Hiring a restoration contractor will ensure that you save money and get your property back to it's original condition as soon as possible.
