Water damage in Germantown: calls answered at any hour

Distance and the first visit

Distance changes the time a crew takes to reach the house. It does not change the scope. A homeowner who is far from the centre can help by having the address, the water source and the power state ready when the call is made.

Notes for a lower level in the village

Lower levels hold water out of sight. The crew checks them early and writes the findings into the scope.

What the homeowner keeps

The scope, the photographs and the readings describe the loss. An insurer or a later contractor will ask for them, and a folder complete in the first week saves time later.
