How Calls Work

The Call, Step by Step

1. You dial (208) 908-0878. There's nothing to fill out first.
2. You describe the water. What got wet, how much, whether it's still running, and what's under the floor if you know.
3. An independent restoration company answers. It's a local business of its own, not part of this site.
4. From there it's between you and them. A visit, a look at the damage, their explanation of the work and its cost, and dates you agree on, with your insurer involved if you choose.

What This Line Is, and What It Isn't

The line exists to put a wet house in front of a restoration company. Meridian Water Damage Restoration has no crews, equipment or vehicles, sets no prices, and doesn't supervise any job. Each company that takes calls runs its own business and answers for its own work.

Checking an Idaho Company

Idaho registers contractors rather than testing them, so a few minutes of checking is worth it:

• Registration: Idaho requires contractors to register with the Idaho Contractors Board before most private construction work over $2,000. You can look a company up through the Idaho Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses.
• Insurance: ask for proof of liability coverage, in writing.
• A written scope: the rooms, what comes out, how the drying will be run and checked, and what's left for later.
• Moisture readings: ask to see them on each visit, and keep a copy.
• A real address and recent references you can actually call.
• Paperwork about your claim: read anything that would hand your insurance claim or its payment to someone else before you sign it.

How the Site Is Paid

Callers pay nothing to use the line. When a call becomes a qualified lead, a restoration company or a marketing partner pays this site a fee. Calls can be recorded to check quality and billing. Details: Site notice.
