Ed Fogle spent years working in property restoration and learning the skills of water damage mitigation and repairs prior to joining "the other side" as a third party consultant (TPC).   

We do our best to have a civil conversation with Ed, even though he plays for "the other team". You wont' want to miss the back an forth on The DYOJO Podcast Episode 26 as we discuss how to play nice in the sandbox, rather than turn it into a litter box.   Ed shares his experiences working for family owned construction companies, large franchise operations and the same regional company that I worked for. 

He shares ways that water and fire damage contractors can make the review process much more efficient, which will help their clients get back to home and/or work quicker (customer satisfaction) as well as lead to more expedient release of funds (getting paid).   

Keep an eye out for the soon to be released book Be Intentional: Estimating from Jon Isaacson. You can view our discussion via The DYOJO Youtube Page and you can listen to The DYOJO Podcast wherever fine podcasts are listened to (Spotify, Apple, Anchor, Google). You can read more on this topic, and many others, in Jon's monthly column The Intentional Restorer from Restoration and Remediation (R&R) Magazine.
