FLOW

Before restoration, there is an order to things

Follow this order before you start clearing up and you will have no trouble with the disaster certificate or the insurance claim.

STEP 1

Safety first

The distribution board (breaker). Switch the breaker off before clearing up
  • In a flooded room, do not touch electrical appliances until the breaker is off
  • Do not use an appliance that has been under water, even if it looks dry
  • Clear up in long sleeves, boots and gloves
Floodwater contains mud and sewage
STEP 2

Take photos before clearing up

Measuring and recording the waterline left on a wall with a tape measure
  • The whole outside of the house
  • The waterline on the walls, showing how high the water came
  • Each damaged room, one at a time
These can be used as they are for the disaster certificate, the insurance claim and our quote
STEP 3

CASE

Restoration work, before and after

An idea of how far a home comes back with flood restoration work.

BEFORE Water standing under the floor (illustrative)
➜
AFTER The crawl space after draining, drying and treatment (illustrative)

Flooding under the floor: drain the crawl space → dry → disinfect and treat against mould

BEFORE A floor damaged by flooding (illustrative)
➜
AFTER The floor after relaying (illustrative)

Relaying the floor: remove damaged flooring → dry the subfloor → relay

* The photos are illustrative. Records of actual work will be added as the current restoration jobs progress. The scope and duration of work depend on the state of your home.

PRICE

About cost

The cost of work varies greatly with the damage, so we explain it in a quote after a site visit.

Site visit

0yen

We look at the damage in person. When requests overlap we visit in turn.

Quote

We itemise the quote. Feel free to compare it with other firms.

Checking public support

Ask your office

We send by LINE a list of schemes you may be able to use, such as the emergency housing repair scheme. Whether you qualify is decided by the municipal office.

* Whether fire insurance or a mutual-aid policy pays out is decided by the insurer. We cannot promise that "insurance will make it free".
STEP

From first contact to restoration

Contact us first

Send photos by LINE, or phone.

Site visit

We check the extent of the damage and the state under the floor and inside the walls.

Quote

Itemised. Free.

Emergency measures

If needed, we stop leaks and the like first.

Full restoration

We do the work, you check the finish, and we hand over.

Take your time to decide. We do not chase you after the quote.

CAUTION

Beware of the sales approaches that follow a disaster

After a major disaster, sales approaches targeting the affected area increase. Whether or not you use us, please be careful.

"Insurance will fix it for free"

Whether insurance pays out is the insurer's decision. No contractor can promise it.

An unannounced "free roof inspection"

The safe course is to turn away any inspection you did not ask for. The National Consumer Affairs Center also warns about this.

Pressure to sign now

"Cheaper if you decide today" is your cue to say no. Do not sign on the spot; compare quotes.
