Debris/Waste and Water Removal
Damage mitigation activities, if begun quickly can have a great impact on the wider recovery. Most ‘loss mitigation’ activities are simple and cost effective. Investing in mitigation can deliver huge savings when compared to the cost the cost of secondary damage, consequential loss and business interruption. In fact many insurance policies require the policy holder to take ‘reasonable’ steps to mitigate the loss to prevent a situation deteriorating.
Asset and B.E.R Logging
An accurate list of assets involved in or damaged ‘beyond economic repair’ in an incident is important for the organisation or any insurance claim relating. Compiling such a list in the early stages of the recovery process is helpful for all concerned.
Storage Facilities
Time may pass before assets are officially ‘written off’ or those restored returned to the premises. Safe/secure storage keeps your assets safe and undamaged in the meantime.

Such equipment can be costly and sometimes unique; restoration therefore delivers significant savings over replacement and is often the quickest way to ensure equipment essential to business operations is available.
