Use the Experience of SERVPRO to Get an Accurate Estimate of the Restoration Costs for Your Marco Island Home

Recovering from a house fire in Marco Island can be a difficult experience. The physical damage can be horrifying, and just thinking about the cost of repair can be nearly as traumatic. You should rely on experienced experts to get a fair, accurate estimate and handle any issues that arise.  

How does the inspection and estimate process start?

SERVPRO professionals typically begin by listening to your account of the fire. They also examine and pretest all the damaged areas of your Marco Island home and review the results with you. This shows what items can be, which items can be cleaned and restored, and it helps identify any special concerns.

What other issues are addressed initially?

o Removal of all valuables and financial items

o Removal of medications

o Explanation of the cleaning process

o Identifying items that may need to be moved out  

How does the inspection process work?

SERVPRO professionals explain the scope of the inspection, including whether it includes the structure, the contents of the home, or both. They also clarify the damage and explain to what degree restoration will be possible.

What about the estimate?

Estimators start with a process called scoping in which they size up the extent of the damage. Tests and measurements are performed, the cleaning process is outlined, and any important variables are noted. A written estimate is included that outlines the costs to restore or replace structures and the contents of the home.

How are insurance issues handled?

Estimators work with insurance adjusters to clarify the necessary procedures and explain the cleaning and restoration process. They also justify any work being done on the property and explain why the work is necessary to restore the home as much as possible.
