The Benefits of Pretesting

1/15/2021 (Permalink)

At SERVPRO of Licking County our professionals start the restoration process with pretesting. Pretesting is testing a section of the surface to be cleaned with the recommended cleaning method. This process can help in a number of ways.

  • The restoration of existing materials often costs less than replacing them and a pretest can allow the restoration company to know which parts of the damaged area can best be restored before beginning services.
  • The process of pretesting can also help the restoration company determine the damage type and how severe it may be. Knowing these things can allow for a proper plan of action for any repairs and restoration needs to be made.
  • Doing a pretest helps the restoration company formulate a plan of action. This may include if any steps need to be performed before the restoration starts, what cleaning needs to be done, and which areas of damage need to be addressed first.
