The High-Stakes Problem for Restoration Services (Fire/Water)

62%

Missed Emergency Calls After Hours: Losing Critical Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Jobs at 2 a.m.

During overnight emergencies like a residential fire or burst pipe in a multi-family unit, 62% of restoration calls go unanswered after business hours. For a fire & smoke damage restoration company, this means missing time-sensitive, insurance-covered jobs—especially when structural repairs or HVAC decontamination are needed within 4–6 hours to prevent mold remediation and secondary damage. A delayed response can result in a $10,000+ claim denial due to delayed mitigation, directly impacting cash flow and client trust.

80%

Voicemail Failures During Storm Damage Restoration Emergencies

When a storm causes water damage restoration in a basement or commercial kitchen, clients expect immediate human contact. 80% of callers won’t leave a voicemail if the call isn’t answered within 15 seconds—especially during post-disaster cleanup scenarios. For a restoration company handling water damage restoration from a 3-inch pipe burst in a high-end home, missing that initial call can mean losing the job to a competitor who responds within minutes, even if it’s 1:47 a.m.

85%

Delayed Communication with Insurance Adjusters: Risking 85% of Revenue Streams

Insurance restoration claims account for 85% of all restoration payments. When a call from an adjuster regarding a fire & smoke damage restoration job is missed during off-hours, the claim delay can exceed 72 hours. This delay impacts claim processing timelines, especially for mold remediation and biohazard cleanup, which require rapid intervention to meet insurer SLAs. A single missed call can delay a $12,000 claim by over a week, eroding trust with both the client and the insurance provider.

During the holidays, our team is stretched thin. Last Christmas Eve, a client called at 11:15 p.m. about a burst pipe in a historic home—Category 3 water damage requiring immediate drying & dehumidification and biohazard cleanup. Answrr answered, collected all details, and scheduled a team within 90 minutes. The job was completed in 12 hours, and the client referred two more clients. We’ve since made it a policy to never miss an after-hours call.
