Rapid response is critical.

Within minutes water can and will spread to unaffected areas. Within hours, drywall can swell, and bacterial odor will start to occur. Within days, mold will appear along with a "musty" odor.

We at Adams Disaster & Restoration will take every step and precaution necessary to ensure a proper mitigation process. 

Our trained professionals will take the necessary steps to start the dry out by ensuring we set the proper equipment and test the materials if necessary. Properties built before 1982 will require sampling for asbestos testing. Properties built before 1978 will require sampling for lead and asbestos testing. Commercial properties along with multiple combined units will require testing whatever the build date. 

At Adams Disaster & Restoration we strive to provide a clean and safe working environment when removing affected materials. 

When handling Category 3 mold, lead or asbestos, our experienced technicians will contain areas during the removal process to protect you and your family. We will also do a post air clearance test before we take down any containments or allow anyone to enter contained areas.

Your safety and the safety of our employees is paramount when working in these situations. We take it very seriously. 

Step 1 - Upon completion of the mitigation and/or dry out, we will assign a Project Manager to work with your insurance adjusted to establish an estimate on the property damage through an estimate on the property damage through an estimate software known as Xactimate. The scope of work will follow the IICRC guidelines as agreed upon with your insurance company. Pricing and scope of repairs will be established through Xactimate and are approved by your insurance carrier. Please keep in mind we can only work as quickly as the insurance carrier allows us to.

Step 2 - Once we have an approved estimate by your insurance adjusted and a signed work authorization form along with the deposit, a project manager (PM) will be assigned to your job within 48-72 hours. The PM will work closely with you to ensure the structure and contents are returned to pre-loss condition. 

Step 3 - The PM will contact you and schedule an initial walk to go over the approved scope of work by your insurance carrier. At the initial walk, the PM will cover the budget for material selection, scheduling, and any questions or concerns that you may have. 

Step 4 - The final step will be completion of the repairs. The typical time to complete work after approval and initial walk can be approximately 3-8 weeks. This time frame is dependent on the detail of the estimate and the time can vary. Please understand there can be unexpected delays with the plumbing, permits, supplements, etc.
