It can be disheartening to find out any property has suffered damage from a natural disaster, but for business owners, it can derail their livelihood. FEMA recently reported that after a disaster ,40 to 60 % of businesses cannot reopen.
To ensure your business will be able to recover, finding a reputable commercial restoration company to restore your commercial property is key. Here are some qualities to look for as you decide who to work with:
Their Emergency Response Time
When it comes to damages, even a few hours can make a big difference. The longer the damage is left untreated, the more severe it can become- meaning more time and money for business owners. Choose a company with a rapid response time so you know your damage will be attended to as soon as possible.
One key thing to look for is an emergency line that’s on 24/7- having around the clock service allows us to spring into action as soon as damage is reported, so business owners can focus on other things they need to do to recover.
Their Technician Training Program
Not all training programs are created equally, and you want to be sure your business is in the best hands of technicians you can trust. Being aware of how technicians are trained can go a long way in providing this peace of mind.
The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) provides industry standards, which is what we train all of our technicians to abide by. Electronic classes and certification programs are also provided, in order to keep our employees fully up-to-date in the field.
The Equipment They Use
When it comes to commercial restoration, having the right tools makes a big difference in the quality of the work. Look for a company that takes pride in keeping its fleet updated and maintained to ensure corners are not being cut.
The IICRC also has standards for equipment, which is what we base our machinery decisions off of. This way, we can be sure we have the highest caliber tool for the job, not matter what the job entails.
