Hiring
Before approving cleanup work, make sure the scope is clear and the provider can explain how the home will be dried and documented.
Quick answer
Questions about extraction, drying, demolition, documentation, and rebuild scope.
Scope questions keep cleanup or repair proposals from becoming vague. Ask what is included, excluded, and conditional.
Drying questions matter because surface dryness is not enough. Ask how moisture is measured and when equipment will be removed.
Insurance documentation is strongest when photos, line items, source notes, and drying records match the same timeline.
Avoid vague lump sums when water source, demolition, equipment days, and rebuild are not separated.
