When searching for a service provider remember these key points when selecting them to hire:

1. General contractors and handymen may be seen as a more cost effective solution, but they are not always educated or armed with the necessary equipment to properly remediate the structure that could contain potential mold, sewage or hazardous debris which ultimately will put your family at risk.
2. Only companies with the training and experience have the skilled techniques available to properly dry out your property.
3. IICRC certified technicians and firms have been recognized by the IICRC for their education and training by professionals in the field. It is imperative you request for their licensing, certifications and insurance from the companies you are considering.
4. Someone who makes unsolicited phone calls or visits. Be especially wary of people who offer a bargain price, claiming that they’re doing a job in the neighborhood and have leftover materials.
5. Someone whose address can’t be verified, who uses only a post office box, or who has only an answering service and no separate listing in the telephone book.
6. Someone who isn’t affiliated with any recognized trade association.
7. License or insurance information you can’t verify.
8. Someone who can’t (or won’t) provide references for similar jobs in your area.
9. Do they offer a guarantee for their work?
10. The promise of a hefty discount—but no mention of the total cost of the job.
11. The promise of a deep discount if the contractor uses your home as a “demo.”
12. High-pressure sales tactics or threats to rescind a special price if you don’t sign on the spot.
