Disaster Pre-Planning

Plan ahead to protect your family home in the event of a disaster.

In the 30+ years of experience we have working with homeowners in times of emergency, we have been involved in a variety of different situations. One thing that is universally consistent though is the fact that taking a few minutes of planning long before an emergency situation arises can save you time and energy when you need it most.

No one wants to think a disaster may strike – but if and when it does, taking care of a few details beforehand will make a stressful situation a little bit easier.

Being prepared can include:
  • Periodically taking photos or videos of your home and contents
  • Itemizing new goods as you renew your homeowner or tenant insurance
  • Keeping important documents (or at minimum a photocopy) in a safety deposit box
  • Preparing an emergency contact list, e.g. friends, family, doctor, insurer, etc., that you keep offsite

You may want to inquire with your insurance company whether they have an easy-to-use electronic form, or check online for a home inventory software program.

We’ll help you put your property back to right, and you can help us.

Testimonials

This company has done an excellent job of cleaning up and restoring. The staff have been excellent and most co-operative. They are real professionals and very business-like in all respects. Both my wife and I would have no hesitations in recommending them. We were most appreciative of their very prompt response to our water problem in our basement. Thank you. — Ian, Bay Verte, New Brunswick
