How to do a moisture inspection for water damage

Did you know there was a step by step process you should use during an inspection for water damage? In today's video we go through each step from fielding the phone call to filing the claim.
A water damage job can be worth 8k or more! There are a few places that the job tends to fall off the tracks.
After performing over 1,000 water damage claims, this video will shed light to our process we used at my company.

This one time, i got an old time contractor to explain it to me. "You have to teach your techs how to even park your vans, if want to try it, give the keys to 10 of your techs to park the van in front of a house. They all will park differently, and one of them will park on the grass".
I will never forget that lesson.

Great info.... It's still best to ask when it happened or date they discovered it because that will determine what category of water you're dealing with and determine whether demo, pack out, PPE, etc. Is needed.
Yes, it's important to be careful not to narrate that it's an ongoing issue when you're dealing with a claim. As restors, we are there to help the customer, not the insurance.
Keep on going with this brother

[@TheRestorationContractor]

Glad you like the video.
I still stand behind the idea that speculating on the date of loss isn't beneficial.
You mention that it is helpful for determining the category of the water. I would submit to you that you can determine the category of water without knowing the date of loss.
We are on the same page about protecting the insured.
Keep up the fight

[@scratchyguitar6404]

Ha! As if an adjuster isn't going to know the difference between a new leak and one that has rotted walls and created mold. The criteria for determining date of loss differ for property claims vs medical. Just an FYI. And BTW, giving an adjuster false or misleading information is not a misdemeanor crime and the contractor would be complicit in that crime.

We are in a suburban area where street parking is common. We park in the street and set cones. I avoid pulling into driveways if possible, but if we are using a driveway we back in unless it's really long.

[@TheRestorationContractor]

Thats a good plan!

[@IrvingBatista]

Good advice. Thank you.
