Benefits of Outsourcing Water Mitigation Claims
Water damage claims will often bring water mitigation costs with them. It’s not unusual, given the complexities of water mitigation, for the staff reviewing the results of water damage to lack the expertise to properly analyze a water mitigation estimate. This results in inflated and inaccurate estimates that you then have to pay for.
Reduce this risk, save money, and optimize processes by hiring outsourced water mitigation estimate review specialists that are already trained and qualified to spot these inaccuracies.
Ensure You Only Pay What You Owe
As a carrier, in order to protect yourself from paying out overages or inflated invoices caused by inaccurate costs, partner with people fully trained in contesting water mitigation invoices. Some of the most common items that a water mitigation estimate specialist will adjust for in water mitigation reviews are:
- Unit cost pricing differences
- Excessive labor hours
- Incorrect use of line items entered
- Excessive air filter charges
- Multiple applications of antimicrobial (not mold-related)
- Excessive debris + dumpster charges
- Unnecessary use of and/or size of equipment
- Proper dehumidifier and air scrubber sizes
- Air mover charges.
