How we help
We help make the damage easier to understand and document.
When your property has been damaged, your insurance company may need clear information about what happened, what was affected, what needs mitigation, and what repairs may be required. ERT helps gather and explain that information from a restoration perspective.
Inspect the damage
We assess affected areas and identify visible restoration needs.
Document the loss
We provide photos, notes, moisture readings where relevant, and scope details.
Support next steps
We help explain what needs to happen to protect, clean, dry, repair, or restore the property.
After property damage
Insurance claims can feel confusing when the damage is still unfolding.
After a flood, fire, storm, sewage backup, or mold issue, it can be difficult to know what to photograph, what to report, what needs immediate attention, and what repairs may be required later. ERT helps bring clarity to the situation by documenting the affected areas and explaining the restoration process.
You may not know what damage is hidden : Water, smoke, soot, mold, and moisture can spread behind walls, under floors, into ceilings, and through hidden spaces.
You may need proof of the damage : Photos, notes, moisture readings, and clear scope details can help show what was affected.
You may need urgent mitigation : Some damage needs immediate attention to reduce further loss, such as water extraction, roof tarping, cleanup, or drying.
You may need repair planning : After mitigation, the property may still need drywall, flooring, ceiling, exterior, or reconstruction work.
You may need help communicating the scope : ERT can explain what restoration work is needed and why it matters.
Our insurance support

Initial damage assessment
We inspect affected areas and identify visible water, fire, storm, sewer, mold, or reconstruction needs.

Repair planning
If repairs or reconstruction are needed, we help define the next stage of work clearly.
Start with photos
Send us photos of the damage.
Upload photos or videos of the affected areas so our team can better understand what happened and what support may be needed. This can be useful for water damage, fire damage, smoke and soot, roof damage, sewage backups, mold, and repair needs.
If the damage is urgent, call first. Photos are helpful, but they should not delay emergency mitigation.

Damage we document
Insurance support for water, fire, storm, sewer, mold and reconstruction work.
Different types of property damage require different documentation. ERT helps identify the affected areas, explain the restoration needs, and connect the right service to the type of loss.

Fire damage claims : Documentation for fire damage, smoke, soot, odor, firefighting water, cleanup, and reconstruction needs.

Reconstruction claims : Documentation for damaged materials, repair scope, rebuild needs, and finished restoration work.
Before the inspection
A few practical steps can help protect your claim and your property.
When damage happens, it is natural to feel rushed. Before cleaning, moving items, or making changes, take a moment to protect your safety and gather basic documentation where possible.
Take photos if it is safe : Capture the affected areas, damaged materials, source of damage, and wider room context.
Do not throw everything away immediately : Some damaged items may need to be documented before disposal.
Stop further damage where possible : Call for emergency mitigation such as water extraction, drying, tarping, or cleanup.
Keep receipts and records : Save invoices, emergency repair notes, hotel receipts, cleanup costs, and communication records.
Call a restoration team early : Fast mitigation can help reduce further damage and create clearer documentation from the start.
Safety note: Do not delay emergency help just to collect photos. Safety and damage control come first.
