Certifications, response time, and insurance experience — what to look for when hiring a restoration company.
Certifications
Look for IICRC-certified technicians and a licensed, insured contractor.
Response time

Choose a team that provides daily moisture logs, photos, and bills insurance directly.
Reviews and transparency
Read recent local reviews and ask for a clear explanation of the scope before work begins.
