8/9/2024 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of South Springfield/Agawam is an IICRC firm. The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) creates the standards for the restoration industry and provides training and certification to restoration companies. IICRC Certified Firms have the right to display the IICRC Certified Logo.

IICRC Certified Firms must

  • Present accurate information to consumers and conduct business with honesty and integrity.
  • Require a technician on all jobs who has been formally trained and passed all required tests.
  • Require a continuing education program to keep technicians up-to-date on the latest changes in the industry.
  • Maintain liability insurance to protect all parties in the event of an accident.
  • Maintain a written complaint policy and agree to Better Business Bureau or similar arbitration to resolve disputes, and accept the conclusions and recommendations of arbitration.

The IICRC Develops The Standards For The Restoration Industry

The IICRC has been the driving force in establishing the main industry standards and reference guides for professional carpet cleaning, water damage restoration and mold remediation. These IICRC standards take years to develop and require the coordination of experts in the field: manufacturers, industry organizations, insurance professionals, training schools, contractors, and public health professionals.

Every five years, the standards are reviewed and updated. The water damage restoration field changes rapidly with advancements in technology and science, and therefore the standards must evolve to keep pace.

We here at SERVPRO of South Springfield/Agawam are always getting calls to come in to correct someone else's work. Or worse, having to start from scratch and do it all over again. Sometimes costing the homeowner additional out of pocket expenses, if the insurance carrier refuses to cover the bill a second time. 

We often hear "we didn't realize how involved the process is" or "my contractor said they could do the work". 

The best advise we can give our customers is to make sure that the company they hire to clean up any issue whether its water, mold, smoke or fire damage have experience doing so. Ask them if they are IICRC certified. This certification is what makes SERVPRO knowledgeable in our field. 

SERVPRO puts your family first.
