How to Choose a Board Up Company
Choosing the right restoration company is one of the most important decisions you will make after property damage occurs. The company you select will directly impact the quality of your restoration, how quickly you can return to normal, and your overall experience during a difficult time. Here are key factors to consider when making your decision:
Certifications and Training: Look for companies with IICRC certification, which is the industry standard for restoration professionals. IICRC-certified technicians have completed rigorous training and must maintain their certification through continuing education. At Advanced DRI, all our technicians hold relevant IICRC certifications and receive ongoing training on the latest restoration techniques and equipment.
Experience and Reputation: Experience matters significantly in restoration work. A company with years of experience has encountered countless scenarios and developed the expertise to handle any situation effectively. Check online reviews, ask for references, and verify the company has a solid track record. Advanced DRI has been serving the Northeast since 2005, completing over 15,000 restoration projects with consistently high customer satisfaction ratings.
Response Time and Availability: Damage does not wait for business hours, and neither should your restoration company. Ensure the company offers true 24/7 emergency service with rapid response times. Ask about their average response time and whether they have local crews in your area. Our 90-minute response guarantee is backed by multiple office locations strategically positioned throughout New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.
Insurance Expertise: Restoration claims can be complex, and having a company experienced in working with insurance is invaluable. Ask if they work directly with insurance companies, handle documentation, and communicate with adjusters. A good restoration company can often maximize your claim while minimizing your stress. Our team has established relationships with all major insurers and handles the entire claims process on behalf of our customers.
Equipment and Techniques: Professional restoration requires commercial-grade equipment that far exceeds what is available to consumers. Ask about the equipment the company uses and whether they stay current with industry advances. Advanced DRI invests continuously in the latest technology, including thermal imaging cameras, commercial dehumidifiers, air scrubbers, and specialized cleaning equipment.
