More FAQs- Will my insurance cover the costs associated with biohazard cleanup services?
- Do I need to move my business out of my commercial property during the fire restoration process?
- How do I keep track of non-restorable items?
As a commercial business owner, you may be concerned about the costs associated with biohazard cleanup services. However, many insurance policies do cover this type of service, especially if it is deemed necessary for the health and safety of your employees and customers. Our team at ServiceMaster Restore is experienced in working with insurance companies and can assist you in filing a claim.
Depending on the extent of damage from the fire, this is ultimately your decision. Some things you may want to consider are safety concerns, odours, electricity, and disruption to your business as a result of the equipment, work and noise that may be necessary to complete the restoration process. If vacating your premises during the process, consider informing all customers and associates; forwarding your mail to your temporary location; stopping or redirecting pickups and deliveries; and notifying all utility companies, of the temporary suspension of services to your usual business location during the restoration process.
We recommend you make a list of items (including food items) deemed non-restorable. You can obtain a form for this purpose from your insurance company. Make a copy for your insurance company and keep one for yourself.
