Before You Call The Spore Authority

1. Do you take moisture readings every day and will you give me the drying log?
2. Are your technicians certified in water damage restoration?
3. Where do you think the moisture is coming from, and who fixes it?
4. Will you set up containment and negative air, and how will you protect the rest of the home?
5. Do you also do remediation? If so, who checks your work?

Ask whether the company is registered with your city building department, and for plumbing or electrical work ask for an Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board license. Also ask for proof of insurance and industry certification for the technicians.

They list no storefront. Ask where the business is based and whether the crew is their own.
