Disaster recovery requires a vast number of resources — resources that can only be offered by a provider that is backed by a $3 billion company with a network of more than 400 locations. Not only can SRM provide you with a recovery team who can respond at a moment’s notice, but we also have the know-how to properly manage the number of resources that go with it. After all, the disaster affects not only the day-to-day business but the employees who work there too.
Depending on the extent of damage, your insurance representative can help you answer this question. Ultimately, however, this is a decision you must reach on your own. Some things you may want to consider are safety concerns, odours, electricity, and disruption as a result of the equipment, work and noise that may be necessary to complete the restoration process in your home. If vacating your premises during the process, consider forwarding your mail to your temporary residence; stopping your newspaper and other deliveries; notifying your utility company, cable company, etc., of the temporary suspension of services during the restoration process.
There are some aspects of the restoration process that may require the services of general contractors such as drywall/painting; electrical; plumbing; roofing; framing/finish carpentry; flooring/carpet; installation of doors, windows, cabinets, post-construction cleanup, etc. ServiceMaster Restore provides full reconstruction services.
