Insurance claims & property-loss projects

Property loss in an older building? The environmental portion, documented properly.

When a water, fire or storm loss involves an older building, the demolition often uncovers lead paint or suspect asbestos — and the project stops until it is addressed by a licensed contractor. We perform the evaluation and the abatement, and we produce the scopes, photographs and documentation that owners, restoration companies and insurance professionals need to move the claim forward.

For property owners

What happens when a claim involves lead or asbestos

Most restoration companies are equipped to dry a building and rebuild it. Far fewer hold the licences to remove lead paint or asbestos, which is why an older-building claim often stalls at exactly the point where demolition should begin.

What we do and do not do on a claim. We provide environmental documentation, photographs, scopes and estimates so property owners and the appropriate restoration and insurance professionals have clear information about the work required. Coverage decisions remain with the insurance carrier and the applicable policy. We are not a public adjuster, we do not negotiate claims, and we do not promise that any item will be covered.

For restoration contractors, GCs & property managers

You found lead or asbestos. We can take that part of the project.

You do not have to turn the job down, stall the schedule, or hand your client to a competitor. Take all of it or any part of it — most project teams start with the evaluation and decide the rest once they know what they are dealing with.

Responsive evaluation

Site attendance, sampling and identification while your project is open and waiting on an answer.

Written scopes and estimates

Environmental scopes your client, the owner and the rest of the team can all read without an interpreter.

Photographic documentation

Progress and completion photographs, including conditions that will be hidden once the work is closed up.

Containment and abatement

Licensed lead and asbestos abatement under our own New Jersey licences.

Selective demolition

Controlled removal of the affected materials rather than a general tear-out.

Clearance coordination

Independent clearance coordinated with an appropriately qualified independent provider where required.

Disposal documentation

Records for the materials removed, prepared for the project file.

Reconstruction, optional

We can stop at clearance and hand back, or rebuild the components we removed under NJ HIC #13VH13909700. Your call.

Communication

You get the owner’s licensed contractor on the phone, not a scheduler reading from a screen.

Owners on property-loss projects

Where the environmental portion needs its own licensed contractor.

Insurance and restoration professionals

Where accurate environmental documentation is what the file is missing.

On insurance, plainly. We provide environmental documentation, photographs, scopes and estimates so property owners and the appropriate restoration and insurance professionals have clear information about the work required. Coverage decisions remain with the carrier and the applicable policy. We are not a public adjuster and we do not negotiate claims.

Why refer rather than lose the job

We do not compete with you for the rest of the work

Our business is the environmental portion and the reconstruction that follows abatement. If you want the reconstruction, take it — we will clear the building and step back. What we will not do is quietly take over your client’s wider project.

That is the whole basis of a referral relationship that lasts more than one job, and it is why several builders and property managers call us repeatedly rather than shopping it each time.
