Insurance Documentation from Our Inspections
Our inspections include photographs, moisture readings and thermal images — the evidence base your insurer needs to validate the claim.
We provide a written restoration scope with damage observations and recommendations that drives the insurance claim and restoration plan.
Documented moisture maps showing the full extent of migration ensure all affected materials are accounted for in the claim.
Post-drying verification reports confirm the structure meets dry standard before reinstatement — essential for claim closure and preventing future disputes.
