Contents Restoration FAQs
We know emergencies are stressful. Here are answers to the most common questions.
Do I have to use the restoration company my insurance company refers?
No. As the homeowner, it is your choice which restoration company you use. You have the final say in who restores your property to its pre-damage condition.
Should I file a claim with my insurance company after water, fire, or storm damage?
Not always. While we cannot tell you whether to file a claim, our experienced team can help evaluate the damage and explain your options before you move forward.
Is it okay to start temporary repairs or cleanup before speaking with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. We can begin temporary repairs or water extraction while documenting the property damage and making the necessary information available to your insurance adjuster.
How are payments handled?
If insurance is involved, we work directly with your insurance company or adjuster and handle the billing process. You are responsible for your deductible. If insurance is not used, we accept cash, checks, and credit cards upon completion of services.
How much do residential or commercial restoration services cost?
The cost depends on the type and extent of the damage, the size of the affected property, and the services required. We provide free estimates and clearly explain what to expect before work begins.
How long do restoration services usually take?
Every situation is different. Depending on the type and extent of damage, property size, and services required, restoration can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks or longer.
What types of belongings can be restored after water or fire damage?
1st Call Restoration can assess belongings affected by water, fire, smoke, and other property damage. Each item is evaluated based on its material and the type and extent of damage, with cleaning methods selected to address issues such as smoke, soot, moisture, mold, mildew, residue, and persistent odors.
How does the contents restoration process work?
The process begins with assessing and documenting affected belongings. Items are then carefully packed, labeled, inventoried, and transported for specialized cleaning. Cleaned belongings can be kept in secure, climate-controlled storage while property repairs are completed, then returned and placed according to the agreed pack-back plan.
Will my damaged belongings be cleaned or replaced?
Our team evaluates each affected item to determine what can be cleaned and restored. Belongings are documented during the assessment, and items that require additional review can be identified for further evaluation before the restoration process continues.
How are personal belongings handled during pack-out and storage?
Belongings are carefully packed, labeled, and organized before being transported from the property. An inventory system is used to help keep items accounted for throughout the restoration process, and cleaned contents can be stored in a secure, climate-controlled facility until the property is ready for their return.
