Writing winning restoration estimates goes beyond finding a number or memorizing Xactimate codes. It involves developing and maintaining relationships with clients, insurance carriers, and adjusters. If you want to pump sales, increase closure rates, and improve gross profits for your restoration small business, you need a systematic process for building trust with the customer, accurately assessing the damage, assembling a detailed scope, and presenting an estimate that minimizes change orders and supplements.
The fundamentals and processes taught in Violand’s Restoration Estimating class are applicable for all restoration contractors providing mitigation, repair, mold remediation, and content cleaning services.
Violand’s Restoration Estimating program teaches the fundamentals of:
Securing more jobs and increasing referrals
Creating emergency and repair estimates that eliminate objections from insurance adjustors
Accurately pricing jobs to be both profitable and competitive
Identifying and capitalizing on opportunities for increasing profit margins in all trade categories
Speeding up insurance claim payments and navigating the red tape of working with mortgage companies
The program provides in-depth solutions and easy-to-use forms that help professional estimators take better actions, make effective decisions, and strengthen performance to boost the bottom line of the business. One such form is the Violand Scope Sheet, which allows estimators to better document and scope a loss consistently and pass that information along to others in the business.
To compete and grow in today’s restoration world, estimators need to go beyond learning the technical skills of identifying loss components and transferring data into Xactimate. Violand’s Restoration Estimating class offers the next step in professional estimating responsibilities.
