Steps in Our Residential Construction Process

Every home construction project is unique and customized for you, no matter if it is a remodel or repairs in connection with insurance claims. This information is meant to help you understand your role in your project, as well as the roles for us, your insurance company, adjusters and your mortgage company. Your participation in making certain decisions about your work will have an impact on your costs and the schedule, but we are here with you each step of the way.

Before starting any home construction project, it’s important to do your homework. If you need approvals from a homeowners’ or condominium owners’ association, that must be done prior to the work. If construction is the result of an insurance claim, you will need to verify coverage and any limitations of coverage such as deductible amounts and replacement cost.

Estimates and Finalizing the Estimate

We use the Xactimate estimating software for all construction projects and will provide a copy of your estimate as an attachment to your Construction Work Authorization.

Deposits and Progress Payments

We provide you with a Deposit and Draw Schedule as an attachment to your Construction Work Authorization. Please note that failure to make progress payments may hold up your project. This includes the payment of the deposit (depending on state law).

Arranging access to your home and communicating scheduling constraints, for both us and tradesmen, is critical to an efficiently run construction project. Coordinating schedules between tradesmen and homeowners are the most common reason for project delays.

An unforeseen issue can sometimes arise after the project is started that will result in additional costs. For example, the discovery of additional damage that could not be seen until demolition was underway. While we try to anticipate some of these kinds of occurrences, we cannot foresee all of them. In such cases, we will work with your insurance company to see if this issue can be added as a “supplemental” to your claim. However, you may need to sign a Change Order to cover the additional cost.

Change Orders

Customers sometimes want to change or upgrade the materials used in their project after the initial estimate has been accepted. We will try to work with you to incorporate these changes into your project. However, once we start work on your project, we cannot make changes that impact ordered materials or structural changes.

Progress Payments

If the cost of your project is estimated at more than $10,000, you may be asked to make interim payments as your project progresses. For insurance related work it is important to ...

If the cost of your project is estimated at more than $10,000, you may be asked to make interim payments as your project progresses. For insurance related work it is important to maintain close contact with your adjuster and mortgage company, if applicable, to ensure payments are made promptly or work on your project may be delayed or stopped.

Our professionals adhere to the National Association of Homebuilders Residential Construction Performance Guidelines for Professional Builders & Remodelers Fifth edition. If issues with work quality are identified quickly as the repairs are made during the project, the walk-through should be a simple confirmation of the work performed and final sign-off.

Certificate of Completion

Once all work has been completed you will be asked to sign this document acknowledging that the work is complete and meets industry standards.

Final Payment

At the end of the project if there are deemed to be any items that are incomplete (e.g. back ordered light fixtures or minor completion items), you may withhold an amount equal to 150% of the reasonable value of those items from the final payment to us. This payment will be paid to us upon completion of those items.

Can SERVPRO perform the fire/water restoration and construction services?

Yes, SERVPRO can fix your fire/water damage and reconstruct any areas extensively damaged. Having just one point of contact through the entire process is best, saving you worry and stress. The continuity of having someone who is familiar with every detail of your project from beginning to end is a huge benefit of working with SERVPRO.

Will I need construction services after a fire or water damage event?

SERVPRO aims to restore your home or business to its original state before any damage occurred. While construction services are not always required, the severity of the damage will determine the necessity. We will clearly communicate the extent of damage assessed and the remediation and construction plan with you before work begins.

Will I have to be home all the time?

No, you do not need to be present while we work to repair your home. We will communicate regularly with you about the timeline and current stage of the project, so you are aware of the activities occurring on any given day.
