I like to thank you for for sharing your knowledge, I am a GC but new in the restoration world, is not easy ( specially collecting payments) suing for the first time in my life, never took people to court in the past but now I got to do it, they got the money from the insurance and now the home owners aren’t answering my calls or emails, but I like the challenge 👊🏼keep on bringing more of your experience and knowledge to your channel, keep it up and God Bless 👍🏼
This is an excellent teaching tool. I just passed the test for all lines and downloaded Xactimate demo. I followed along with you and completed a sketch. Please keep more coming. Thanks again
Excellent. Very thorough. Have subscribed. Hurricane Ian came through. Adjuster came. New roof, bathroom. This helps. Please definitely some more videos. Thank you
on carpet tear out it looks like the padding and nail strips are not accounted for in that price. my question is where those items would be if they are not salvable?.
It does...Kinda funny story. This video was never meant for public. I made it with the intentions of have a very rough instructional video for entry level employees and thought I saved it as a private video. About a year later I noticed it had a few thousand views, which sparked my interests in making more. It also revealed a need for these types of videos because I don't think the quality of this video is anywhere near good yet it was still helpful to some. I had to go back and edit the video because it had personal information from customers that I never intended to be on the internet. That's why it seems to start in the middle and also randomly jumps around some. So now I try to put out other videos that are a little more quality. Which I would still say I have a long ways to go. Thank you for the comment.
Hello, How are you doing? Could you please create a video of the location at 7203 Lincoln Heights Court, Richmond, Texas, United States? If you could also make a video on how to sketch such a roof in Xactimate, I would be thankful to you. Thank you!
How many jobs have you performed where you pulled 4' for a broken water line or a leaking bath tub (aka anything but a complete flood coming in from the outside of the house?)
I agree 4 foot would be easier. In the insurance world we have to have approvals from the adjuster to cut 4 foot up. If we can prove damage above the 2 foot mark they they will only approve 2 foot flood cuts. Its not too bad though. We just rip 8x4 drywall down the middle and run them pretty quickly.
Very true. its pretty rare. If you are performing a 4 ft flood cut then the was some pretty extensive damage. Thanks for the comment.@@robbiezee666rosenjew8
And floating the butt seams can occasionally cause bubbles at the seams if there's even the slightest gap where sheetrock meets sheetrock. The thicker more expensive drywall tape helps in those situations.

Will the dimensions already be provided to you, to turn it into a digital version for sketching?
you can use an ipad to get the dimension or use a floor plan, sometimes they are provided, other times you'll have to come up with them
@@sp1r1tm0leculewhat does that mean, you can use an iPad to get the dimensions?

I'm a Drywall guy.
Never cut at the 2 foot level.
Always cut at the factory seam 4 foot. The insulation is going to wick up the water 2 feet or more.

Meaning, gotta be dead on straight cuts.
Why wouldn't you extract the wet carpet before removing? Lost alot of money
