Water is a great thing. It allows us to wash,
to clean our clothes, to stay hydrated and to swim. There are many reasons to
appreciate water. However, when the basement floods or a pipe bursts, water is
not so wonderful.
Many of us fail to consider what we will do in
the eventuality of water damage in our homes. Yet if the worst happens, the
results can be serious. If left unaddressed, water damage can have serious
consequences for both your health and your building’s structure.
For this reason, hiring the right water damage
restoration company is key. Getting the choice right will ensure that the
damage is mitigated before getting worse. Yet not all companies specializing in
water damage restoration can offer an equally high level of service. With every
company claiming their status as the best in the area, how do you make a
decision? Get it wrong and your home and health could suffer. With this in
mind, here are some top tips to help make an informed decision.
Is Your Chosen Company Certified?
Never hire a water damage restoration company
without the appropriate certification. You should only choose professionals
with IICRC certification to carry out work in your home. IICRC always
promotes ethics, technical proficiency and high standards among restoration
service providers. That means if you hire a company with certification, you can
be confident the job is in safe hands. If you hire a company without IICRC
certification, you will have no guarantee of work being done to appropriate
standards. This could result in a job that is incomplete or badly executed. You
will not only waste time and money, but you will also put your home at risk.
Recommendations and Price Considerations
You should always get several quotes for the
restoration work you require. It can be very tempting to go with the cheapest
one for your water damage restoration work. Remember, however, that you often
get what you pay for. It is also important to ask for recommendations from
people you know and trust. You can also find helpful online reviews with
testimonials from previous clients. These will help you to make a decision
about whether the company is reliable. Bear in mind a company charging very low
prices often use outdated techniques and tools. The result, therefore, may be
substandard.
What Services Does The Company Offer?
Always choose a water damage restoration
company, which offers you mold removal as well as restoration. Mold removal is a key element of any water damage
restoration project. All reputable companies should offer this service. Without
mold remediation being carried out, you will be building up more problems in
the future. Mold spreads rapidly, and can cause health problems. Therefore, getting rid of it as soon as
possible is vital. If a company is only offering, you a simple clean up and
restoration service, you should look elsewhere. They lack the expertise and
skills to carry out the water damage restoration process properly.
Can The Company Help In An Emergency?
Any water damage problem is going to be an
emergency. Therefore, a rapid response is vital. Always choose a restoration
company, which operates 24 hours a day 7 days a week. If a company does not
offer an emergency service, look elsewhere. Although sometimes it is possible
to prepare for a flood in advance, often water damage strikes without
warning. Therefore, if the restoration company does not provide emergency
cover, they cannot be trusted to carry out the job properly. A company which
can be easily contacted at any time and which will come out quickly is
essential.
