DISASTER RECOVERY MANAGEMENT

Leading the Way.
Expert Disaster & Crisis Management Solutions

At W&K Restoration, we understand the profound impact that disasters can have on businesses and communities. For over four decades, our team has provided disaster recovery management services to hundreds of property owners and communities even during the most challenging situations.

Our Approach:

When faced with large loss situations, our priority is to assist our clients with initial recovery efforts, ensuring continuity of operations and essential functions. Our experienced team works closely with clients to develop detailed continuity of operations and essential functions plans, laying the groundwork for a smooth and efficient recovery process.

Key Services:

Continuity Planning: We collaborate with clients to develop tailored continuity plans that address critical business and infrastructure functions, personnel roles, communication strategies, and more. These plans serve as roadmaps for maintaining operations and minimizing disruptions during the recovery phase.

Asset Deployment: Leveraging our expertise and resources, we deploy temporary assets to sustain essential functions while permanent solutions are being implemented. From temporary office spaces to specialized equipment, we ensure that our clients have everything they need to keep their operations running smoothly.

Communication and Coordination: As the single point of contact for our clients, we facilitate seamless communication and coordination throughout the recovery process. Whether it's liaising with insurance adjusters, coordinating with subcontractors, or providing regular updates to stakeholders, we ensure that everyone is informed and aligned.

Immediate Steps During Disaster Recovery

Ensure Safety: The safety of occupants and responders is paramount. Evacuate the premises if necessary and ensure everyone is out of harm's way.

Assess the Situation: Evaluate the extent of the damage and identify any immediate hazards. This assessment will help determine the appropriate course of action.

Notify Authorities: Contact emergency services, such as fire or police departments, if the situation requires their assistance. Provide them with all relevant information to expedite their response.

Contact Insurance Provider: Notify your insurance provider as soon as possible to initiate the claims process. Provide them with detailed information about the incident and follow their instructions regarding documentation and next steps.

Document Damage: Take photographs or videos of the damage for insurance purposes. Document any visible damage to the property and its contents to support your insurance claim.

Mitigate Further Damage: Take immediate steps to prevent further damage to the property, such as boarding up windows, tarping roofs, or shutting off utilities if necessary. This will help minimize the extent of the loss.

Secure Property: Secure the property to prevent unauthorized access and protect it from vandalism or theft. If possible, stay on-site or arrange for security personnel to monitor the premises.

Restoration Efforts: Our restoration team assesses the damage, provide guidance on the restoration process, and initiate cleanup and repairs as needed.

Communicate with Stakeholders: Keep all relevant stakeholders informed about the situation, including tenants, employees, and business partners. Provide regular updates on the progress of the recovery efforts and any changes to the situation.

Begin Restoration: Once the initial assessment and mitigation steps are complete, our restoration team develops a comprehensive restoration plan and begin the process of rebuilding and restoring the property to its pre-loss condition.
