Common Questions
Do I need to move out during restoration
Not always. We can set containment so clean rooms remain usable. If the kitchen or only bathroom is affected a short stay away may be more comfortable.
How soon should drying start
Within the first day if possible. Early extraction and airflow reduce damage and shorten the job.
Can you work with my adjuster
Yes. We send a line item estimate with photos and moisture logs and we coordinate approvals with your adjuster.
What if I only see a stain
Small stains can hide larger damp areas. We can check with meters and thermal imaging and give you a simple plan.
