  • S1:E21 Asbestos in Restoration

    In today's episode, we shift to a little more of an educational format. But one I feel everyone will get a lot of value from.

    Asbestos is a very HUGE issue in the work we do and we see VERY often so many misunderstandings and myths surrounding its hazards.

    We wanted to have a clear and direct conversation about this and include some links and resources for your team to begin to build a real system around this extremely important topic.

    Thanks to our sponsor https://kahi.io/.

              • S1:E19: Chris Laney in The House

                This week's podcast was super fun. Toby and I had a blast talking with Chris for a while.

                It felt like we were just hanging out on a job site.


                Chris Laney and I were on a call last week and just discussing all kinds of industry topics, and I said wait... let's do this in a podcast.

                So that's what this is.

                Just some random shit that lands in our heads.

                We discuss:

                *Introduction

                *Where we met and where we have been, and finally where we hope to be going.

                *The harm that TPA's and Managed Care Programs do to our industry and to the insured.

                *Chris's early career as a carpet tech and spending so much time with the incredible Kurt Bolden at HydroLab.

                *Chris current love for teaching and being an instructor at Dewald Drying Academy with Chuck Dewald III and team.

                *Business patience. Success takes a long time.

                *Marketing Tactics- Relationships, SEO, etc.

                *The incredible advantage of becoming a BUSINESS besides just being a contractor. Know your numbers and how to lead a company.

                *The round-robin cycle of some relationships bringing Chris where he is today with education opportunities.

                *I slip up and mention a classified project (had to cover the name of it)

                *DIscussing Complex and Large Losses. This includes favorite challenging jobs, the resources you need to even manage jobs of large sizes.

                We want to thank our incredible sponsor- Kahi Asset Management Software

                Tune in to episode #18 As the poetic Jay Z would say, we have 99 problems and staffing is one.

                In all seriousness, we do a somewhat deep dive into some actionable ideas on how to handle this epidemic-level situation.

                Additionally, we announced our new sponsor for the podcast, kahi. Kahi is an incredible asset and fleet automation tracking app and software.

                We give a shout-out to our friends and colleagues that were or possibly still are in either Louisiana or NJ/NY from Hurricane Ida damages.

              • Disaster Podcaster- Plumbers, Labor Culture and a HUGE SPECIAL SURPRISE

                Welcome to our fun podcast today. This is audio only (no video).

                We talk about a very incredible and unique plumber interaction. While I feel a strong relationship with referral partners, I am not the PLUMBER GUY. That's someone else. 

                But I do strongly advocate partnerships. You will love this story. 

                Toby and discuss some labor shortage topics, the idea of ANTI-FRAGILE in marketing, and some customer experiences we recently had that only remind us of the thought that everything circles around the client's perception of the service. It is CRITICAL.

                Then we close out a big reveal on something we are working on with The Alliance of Independent Restorers that will quickly promote this industry that we love so much. Add legitimacy and credibility in the eyes of the Dept of Labor and Trade Industry.
                Super Exciting and it will benefit EVERYONE.

                We hope you enjoy the episode and we will be back next week with the full video/ live episode. Check out all our past episodes:
