    This is an educational video walking you through the 20-Step Mitigation process.
    Working more efficiently is the best way to make more money in water damage and restoration.
    If you'd like a more in-depth review with a training manual and step by step videos, check out www.The24HourTech.com.
    The 20-Steps is a very effective tool used to generate thorough Xactimate estimates.
    Insurance companies and TPAs appreciate the detailed documentation. Project Managers and estimators like the fact that they don't have to drive to the job sites anymore.
    Everyone wins.

    My biggest question is always, what about the wet beams, insulation, subfloors, etc. This outside exterior drying to please customers with aesthetics “looking” good/dry is dangerous, because top down drying promotes microbial growth in the areas in the back and underneath as I explained. Mold is destroying lives more than it ever has right now.

    $1900 for an hour of masking work.... that's some deceptive bs. anyone who writes estimates with Xactimate knows insurance providers aren't going to accept charges like that unless your working on a huge commercial scale.
    guys like this have some good tips, but they all say the same goofy shit to make you think they'll make your profits skyrocket

    • @ClaimsDelegates
      @ClaimsDelegates  3 роки тому +2

      aaaaand you COMPLETELY missed the point.
      IF you did nothing but mask and cover for an hour, and billed using Xactimate rates, it would work out to that $1,900-ish.
      The concept is called extrapolation.

    • @dix_pack_of_sixie
      @dix_pack_of_sixie Рік тому

      You missed the point. The point is by skipping things like masking off or containment, you leave money on the table. Those small .27 per sf charges add up. Over the course of a storm season or fiscal year, you lose tens of thousands of dollars. No, you won't make $1900 per hour each job, but overall your passing up revenue that equates to that in easy to understand hourly rates. He isn't scamming or fluffing, he is driving home a point. Doing it right maximizes revenue which maximizes profits.

    WTF kind of sorcery/nonsense did I just listen to?
    How do you calculate a $32.00 charge for containment barrier (that is what you say you charged, so that IS what you will get paid) and spin it into $1900.00? Why did you multiply a $32 charge by 60? You can only charge the $32, that IS your revenue....period! you don't take a .27 cents per SF rate and spin it into an hourly calculation and then multiply it by an arbitrary number (60) and say you just made $1900.00. That is complete nonsense.
    HAHAHA The actual cost to mobilize 2 guys to hang, just that piece of plastic, probably cost you a lot more in terms of travel, setup, fuel, and on and on. Who the fook is this guy? LOL Have you ever even estimated and managed an actual real life large mitigation loss and made money?

      The point is, if you consistently and efficiently do the small things, they add up to great things.
      Maintaining motion with intentional action, can yield amazing returns.
      Moving quickly from one step to another, while maintaining good documentation, can make your company hundreds, if not thousands of dollars per man-hour worked.
