“Insurance professionals are increasingly selective in which property restoration specialists they choose to work with,” said Lauren Reid, CEO of PuroClean. “They want to refer their policy holders to professionals affiliated with a national, reputable brand, that has the capacity to mobilize and handle large-scale disasters, and that has streamlined procedures for documenting and carrying out the restoration process. That’s exactly why independent restoration companies are choosing to join our System.”
