The world of restoration services is filled with myths about utilizing professional help. From costs to the time work takes, homeowners may be deterred from seeking out professional restoration services. We want to take a look at a few common myths and provide reassurance to property owners needing a helping hand to take on home improvement projects.
Myth #1 – DIY Projects Are More Cost-Effective
While some may have the knowledge and expertise to take care of their own home without an immediate need to call a professional, most homeowners are not equipped with the proper training to effectively restore homes in the wake of property damage.
The key reason DIY restoration projects are attractive is the assumed affordability. However, improperly addressing damage can lead to worsened issues such as structural damage, mold growth and other serious problems that will end up costing much more to repair. Our team has both the training and the state-of-the-art equipment needed to provide high-quality restoration to your property, alleviating any stress for follow-up repairs.
Some issues may look small on the surface but become much larger damage behind the scenes as well. Things such as a leaky pipe might be hiding significant water damage within the structure of a home which can lead to larger problems like mold growth that can become costly and stressful restoration projects for a homeowner. Not to mention, these types of damages can also be dangerous to one’s health. Consulting with a professional is the best way to ensure all property damage is taken care of and any threat to health is removed.
When it comes to concerns on cost, many insurance policies will cover professional restoration services, significantly lowering out-of-pocket expenses. We also offer our advice on insurance claims and work to maintain open communication between all parties so you fully understand our services and the overall costs.
Myth #2 – Professional Restoration Services Take Too Long and Disrupt Daily Life
Another common misconception about seeking out professional restoration services is the length of time your home will be a work sight. Many believe the process takes too long and disrupts the flow of their schedule. Rather than seeking professional services out, they opt for quick fixes. While it may alleviate issues right away, these simple fixes most likely will lead to further damage over time, increasing time and costs associated with repairs.
