Restoration service companies have a responsibility to help their customers understand the many details involved with remediation and provide a clear timeline for completing the work. Being displaced from your home or business means you are already dealing with a number of serious concerns, so it is imperative to select a restoration company with years of hands-on experience to help you handle this difficult situation. Here are eight things to look for when choosing a restoration services company:
- Insurance and certifications are an important part of finding the right company. This work requires skilled professionals who know how to accurately assess the issues and prepare a plan to resolve them. You want to make sure a company has the proper coverage and credentials to protect you.
- When disaster strikes, homeowners frequently get calls from many unvetted repair service businesses. This is too great of an expense to leave to chance, so do some research to learn the best choice for you.
- A restoration company should provide you with a remediation and restoration plan that will outline what work needs to be done. Initially, you will have a thorough assessment of your property to identify all of the damages and the potential for other problems that need to be fixed.
- Personalized contact through the process is crucial to a job well done. An open line of communication and keeping you informed of progress are important parts of what we do out of respect for you as our customer.
- One of the most essential aspects of restoration work is filing a successful insurance claim. You need knowledgeable specialists to assist with proper documentation and who know how to file a claim in a timely manner which meets industry standards.
- The quality of workmanship demands excellence, because individuals must be able to return to their homes or businesses feeling assured of their safety.

Fire damage is too often catastrophic and requires a great deal of cleaning and rebuilding to restore a structure to normal. Fire damage is tricky because of the way flames and smoke can infiltrate a structure. A thorough assessment of loss from soot, ash and burn problems is imperative to getting the reconstruction process right.
Water damage can destroy the structure and property inside of your home. Due to certain conditions, water may sit inside a home for so long the damage may be impossible to repair. This can happen with undetected leaks or major floods. Water also presents the possibility of mold proliferation. In the right conditions, this does not take long to occur.
Restoration services are necessary in a number of emergency situations. If damages from fire or water cannot be handled with cleanup or limited repairs, reconstruction is needed to restore a structure to its former state. If your property has experienced water or fire damage, our team at Broderick Dean can assist you.
At Broderick Dean Construction, we provide free damage assessments, assistance through your insurance claims process, and our construction team can help return your property back to a state of normalcy.
While you wait for our team to arrive, we recommend that you:
- Take photos of the water damage. This will be helpful in dealing with your insurance company and should be done throughout the restoration process.
- Protect your carpet from staining: put foil or styrofoam under the legs of your furniture so that it doesn't rest on the wet carpet.
- Move rugs, window treatments, and any other portable property (such as photographs, books, or small pieces of furniture) that could be damaged by further exposure to moisture to a drier location.
