Usually the water damage restoration companies have a team of skilled workers that include janitors, helpers, contractors, plumbers, electricians, professionals who make the list of items that will help you to claim damage, and others.

It is recommended that you should check equipment they will be using.
* Check they have hi tech truck mounted & powerful water extraction unit.
* If the floodwater has crept in basements or rooms, and has high level then submersible gas powered pumps could be very beneficial. They will help in continuous and quick pumping of deep water.
* After the water damage it is necessary to detect & measure moisture saturation. Only upon knowing that the moisture level has decreased then only repairs can begin.
After you are satisfied ask the Water Damage Services Company about the disinfectants, germicides, fungicides, & Anti-Microbial Treatments they will be using. If you are allergic to any ingredient used in them, inform them before hand. This will help them in choosing an alternative effective product.
