Jack of All, Master of None

March 27, 2017 By Modern Remodeling

As a general contractor, we often advertise ourselves as a one-stop shop of sorts for customers. This is because we can do everything from a full kitchen or bath remodel, exterior work like new roof or siding, decking and porticoes to full restoration services for after a fire or water loss. That doesn’t mean, however, that we’re a jack of all trades and master of none. You see, within our company, we have people who specialize in each individual field.

The benefit of being an established company with over 26-years of experience is that we are able to hire the most skilled individuals in each field. We have project managers that just work within storm damage insurance claims and project managers that only work on large losses. We have those who specialize in retail and those who work behind the scenes with the project managers on the coordination of each job trade.

Getting the Best Service…

By structuring our business this way, our team is able to fully master their trade. The complexities on a fire rebuild will be vastly different than that of a retail kitchen. It doesn’t make sense to have one person try to master both. It would be like having your general practitioner perform surgery in place of an actual surgeon just because he went to medical school.

When you work with a general contractor, be sure to bring up this point. Many companies have the same project managers writing retail estimates, working on hail claims, and also working on water losses. No one can do it all well and you are better off working with someone who specializes in the service you are looking to have done. This ensure you are truly getting the best possible service.

Minimizing Costs, Maximizing Customers

A basement being remodeled

A basement being remodeled

It makes sense that a large water loss would warrant immediate attention, but smaller disasters like a leaking refrigerator water line or loose siding from a heavy storm also require a quick response. More times than not, however, that urgency isn’t felt by other large restoration companies or national franchises. Why? They are so inundated with calls that a basement with two-feet of water has to take precedence over a water stained ceiling from a minor leak. Maybe it has to do with resources or maybe it has to do with the dollar sign of a potential job but, whatever the reason, Modern doesn’t run follow the same practice.

From our 25-years of experience, we’ve learned that any type of loss warrants immediate action for two major reasons; it minimizes the scope of damage and it maximizes the customer’s happiness. The longer it takes to begin work, the more you chance increasing the scope of damage. A sump pump failure leaving only half an inch of water in a basement can easily escalate if not properly remediated. Water can spread and mold can easily grow. On top of all of this, the homeowner is left in a horrible situation with damage to their home and no answers or results. It can sometimes take days or weeks for other companies to come out to even inspect the damage. Who wants to leave their customer waiting during such a crisis, no matter how big it may be?

Modern promises to respond to any emergency within the hour, guaranteed.
