Jarvis creates comprehensive checklist to compare contractors Home and Family
The following news story was originally posted on the Jarvis Property Restoration websites. Choosing a qualified contractor to handle your restoration project is a concern for homeowners and business owners alike. Unexpected disasters can displace you from your home or shut down your business and getting your life back in order during these stressful times requires compassion and guidance. The construction industry has been widely documented as having a large variance with the level of service and satisfaction customers receive. Jarvis Property Restoration has recently implemented another measure to help ensure customer satisfaction and provide a comprehensive resource when consumers are comparing contractors for a work project.
Jarvis Property Restoration developed a new downloadable checklist available to all potential customers that can be utilized to measure contractors when shopping for services for emergency and non emergency projects. The checklist was developed after Jarvis met with hundreds of homeowners and business owners to review what qualities and requirements were deemed as most important in making a decision. Universal to almost every potential customer Jarvis interviewed was a desire to work with a company with integrity that can provide services that are done on time and budget. Providing the peace of mind that consumers are working with a company that is licensed, bonded, insured was also a very important factor in making a decision of who to do business with.
The new fifty-seven point checklist will be available for all of the core services that Jarvis Property Restoration offers including: Fire Damage Restoration, Water Damage Repairs, Mold Removal, Electronics & Contents Restoration, Smoke Damage Repair, Painting, Remodeling and all qualified restoration projects. We encourage consumers who are in the process of shopping for the best prices and most qualified contractors to use this as a resource to help guide them through the process. The checklist will help ensure you ask questions about how long the business has been in existence, what types of training and background screens the company's employees undergo and what type of warranty the company offers with their products and services.
