TechLoss Consulting & Restoration, Inc. was brought in following a frozen pipe loss on an upper floor of a multi-million dollar house that resulted in water contaminating much of the whole-house automation system and many of its connected devices for audio/video, lighting, temperature control, and surveillance. We performed multiple on-site inspections and equipment pickups to evaluate and remove the functional items from the residence in order to prevent contamination from the ensuing reconstruction of the water-damaged structure. Once the reconstruction was complete, we worked with the insured’s preferred home automation vendor to reinstall the equipment and return the involved systems to full functionality with new replacements for the damaged items, while reusing those items that were not affected by the loss. This hybrid approach resolved the claim for one fourth of the original proposal cost.
