Water damage can lead to ongoing problems if it´s not cleaned and corrected.
Murphy´s Law says, "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong." And with home floods, this is certainly true! It´s never a "good time" for your plumbing to fail or your pipes to burst. If it´s going to happen, there will be little warning ahead of time. One day you´ll come home and find 2 inches of water across your kitchen floor. Or, after a hard freeze a pipe will burst and spray gallons of water, saturating anything in its path.
Unless coping with frequent plumping failures is part of your day to day life (and it probably isn´t!), you probably don´t have a "go-to" water damage expert´s number pasted to your fridge. You may know you´ll have to call the insurance company to cover a damage claim. They may refer you to a flood damage company for an inspection and potential repair. You´d hope that the "experts" they send are truly experienced and able to handle every step of the water damage clean up and restoration process. But many homeowners don´t know if their flood damages will even be covered by insurance in the first place. They don´t know what to look for in a restoration company. And they don´t fully grasp how serious undetected water damage can be to their homes.
What traits to look for in a professional water damage clean up and restoration company:
• First, beware the large franchises. These large companies often "certify" a team of "experts" after only a few classes. They may equip them with wonderful tools and resources but the actual experience level of the person who arrives at your home may be low. They may also be great at the clean up portion but completely inadequate to assist with repairs, restoration, or reconstruction. That means you´ll need to hire yet another "expert", making your process longer, more cumbersome, and expensive.
• Look for a locally and privately owned company. Sometimes the name is everything. When the same person who runs the company shows up on the job site, owns the entire establishment, and has a reputation to protect, this indicates a level of care and service you just won´t find with a large, impersonal, franchise. You´ll get testimonials and referrals that are as much about the company as they are the individual. If they´ve been in the industry a very long time, their reputation will likely precede them.
• Getting as many services under one roof will save you time and money. Custom Cleanup, run by Travis Myers in Nampa, Idaho, is a water damage clean up and restoration company that has a lifetime of "roots" and experience in the industry, through Huckleberry Homes. Because they are sub-contractors they can take your damaged home from the initial inspection and mitigation process all the way through the final restoration. You don´t have to further outsource. The insurance company only has one claim to settle. The entire process is streamlined and your home will be returned to pre-flood conditions more quickly.
The right company should be able to restore your home so that you could never tell you had a flood!
When you run to the nearest search engine or phone book to find a water damage restoration company, have some qualifications in mind. A flooded home is an emergency but your choice must be made calmly and rationally. The right professional will correct the problems; not add to them. It´s critical that water damage clean up is done in a thorough, complete way that prevents further mold, mildew, and rot. Custom Cleanup is a local business with a lifetime of experience as sub-contractors and construction experts. They can take your damaged home site from the initial mitigation, through a full clean up, to the final restoration. The number to call for emergency water clean-up and water damage repair in the Boise, Idaho and surrounding areas is 1-208-871-2187
