This week’s Ask Annissa covers one of the most common concerns homeowners have after a fire loss: How to find a fire restoration company, and how to choose the right one.

Annissa breaks down what a proper onboarding process should look like, including the questions a qualified restoration company/professional should ask, how they assess the loss, and understanding the homeowner’s priorities.

Annissa also clears up common confusion homeowners may face around which contractor handles what. From cleaning companies and art restorers to electricians, she explains why a properly trained, certified contents restoration company should function as a true one‑stop shop who coordinates all the specialty services so that the homeowner only works with a single, trusted point of contact.
