Disaster recovery requires a vast number of resources — resources that can only be offered by a provider that is backed by a $3 billion company with a network of more than 400 locations. Not only can SRM provide you with a recovery team who can respond at a moment’s notice, but we also have the know-how to properly manage the number of resources that go with it. After all, the disaster affects not only the day-to-day business but the employees who work there too.
Any construction project unrelated to your loss is considered non-insured work. At your request, we will provide a separate estimate for non-insured construction projects, and this work will require separate authorization and payment terms. If the non-insured work will delay the completion of an insured portion, then the situation must first be discussed with your Insurance Adjuster and the ServiceMaster Restore Project Manager.
Depending on the extent of damage from the fire, this is ultimately your decision. Some things you may want to consider are safety concerns, odours, electricity, and disruption to your business as a result of the equipment, work and noise that may be necessary to complete the restoration process. If vacating your premises during the process, consider informing all customers and associates; forwarding your mail to your temporary location; stopping or redirecting pickups and deliveries; and notifying all utility companies, of the temporary suspension of services to your usual business location during the restoration process.
