Most people, when they suffer from a flood on their property due to rainwater flooding, pipe bursts or more severe flooding in their area, panic and call the first name that they find in the newspaper ads or in the Yellow Pages. The fact is that you don't know much about these water damage restoration contractors, and you have no idea if they'll be the right people for the job. There's a lot more involved in flood damage restoration service that simply drying out the water. There's structural damage that has to be prevented immediately, and toilet and sewer clean up to be done. There is the issue of black mold formation to deal with and the de odorizing of the premises to take care of. Structural drying, restoring of possessions to their pre flood state =- all these are important parts of the water restoration process, and only a thorough professional, who has experience in these matters can give you the kind of results that are needed.
Your flood damage restoration specialist should come with the licensing requirements of his trade. Is he WLI or IICRC certified? Is he bonded and insured? How many years has he been handling water damage restoration service projects in Atlanta? Does he handle a bulk of his work in Atlanta or is he an outsider to the areas? You should preferably choose some one who has a local base, and is better equipped to deal with local weather problems that may affect the restoration process. How many projects like yours has he handled? Does he have the resources to handle a project on the same scale as yours? If he has only handled a small scale water damage restoration project that involve pipe leaks or bursts, then he might not have the capabilities to handle large scale flood damage problems, but may be perfect for smaller scale water damage restoration jobs.
Once you have asked all questions and have short listed a couple of contractors, make your choice by verifying all the information that he has given you. Does he have certification from the Water Loss Institute or the Cleaning and Restoration Certification? Check your local Better Business Bureau and look for endorsements of his service, or any pending complaints against him. Ask for a list of references and call these people. Finally, ask him for a written estimate of his services. He should absolutely be able to provide you with a written quote for the project.
