Who better to get advice from on the challenges of working catastrophic events than the professionals that have been doing it for years. Here’s what Art Diamond, Property Restoration Inc., and Mike Terrell, Ohio Valley Restoration, had to say.
With spring storm and hurricane season now upon us, many restoration contractors across the country can expect an uptick in catastrophic work. Take for instance, some of the big incidents from 2014, like in August when record rainfall hit the metro-Detroit area, flooding thousands of homes. Flash floods also hit Arizona in October. And prior to 2014, some notable catastrophes include the 2013 Calgary floods and the destruction from 2012’s Superstorm Sandy. Would you be prepared for the uptick in work when the next big catastrophe hits your area?
