From validating water damage claims to restoring fire-damaged cabinetry, expert Furniture Medic technicians work with you and your policyholders to get them back to their normal.
When a major water, fire, smoke or vandalism event damages your policyholders’ furniture, cabinetry or other property, consider repair and restoration. Instead of opting for a total replacement, you can save time and money by choosing Furniture Medic.
How Furniture Medic Benefits My Policyholders & Me
Experiencing a disaster is difficult enough. You and your policyholders need a disaster restoration team you can trust to get the work done safely and efficiently. And that’s when Furniture Medic comes in.
What are common types of disaster repair and restoration work?
Furniture Medic technicians examine damage and assess severity after a disaster, including issues caused by water. Common disaster restoration and repair work includes:
- Cabinet repair, restoration and refinishing
- Emergency cabinet removal and countertop bracing to salvage countertops and repair cabinetry off-site
- Furniture restoration, including structural repair and stabilization
- Restoration of wood features, including millwork, paneling, doors, banisters, mantles and more
What is the average savings for choosing the restore option versus a total replacement?
On top of increased savings opportunities on cabinetry and furniture claims for a “repair vs. replace” option, additional living expenses (ALE) may also decrease since the homeowners may be able to remain in a functioning, habitable home during restoration.
On average, we see the below savings per claim:
- $4,900 (excluding ALE) for cabinetry
- $2,800 for furniture
How does Furniture Medic decrease additional living expenses (ALE) for my policyholders?
Through our Emergency Cabinet Removal service, for example, we’re able to maintain a functional space for the homeowners so they can stay in their residence during restoration. And when they can stay in-home, additional living expenses are no longer necessary.
