I would like to see if any cat adjusters in the Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas area would be interested in taking a 4 day hands on course in Structural Drying to better understand why contractors like me do what we do, especially in terms of scoping. I'd be willing to pay for the tuition which normally runs $895 per person for up to 4 people. This is assuming there will be seats available and there is enough interest. The class starts March 2nd and is in Nashville, TN.
Thanks,

"Toxic Mold" - Is there any such thing? Is there evidence that mold, either allergenic or toxic can or does affect a person's physiology in any way? "Infectious Bacteria" - What are coliforms and what is Legionella and what's the worst case scenario when exposed to either of them? "You Guys" - Huh?
Thanks,

| It this just one more ploy to get some adjusters to this course so that they will in turn use your company as a reference when they have a home with mold? It never ceases to amaze me how you guys always think that you know everything there is to know about construction and how to remove something that we breathe when we walk out the door, you might as well go to the insurance companies bank and just rob it. #666 Adjuster(not sure what this means, got it last weekend at motel 6 over the weekend) |

NEGATIVE NEGATIVE
Its funny all Bob offered was sending a few people to what is a good class, and jump all over him.
LOL people.I must say I do not know Bob but have read other post he has posted on other boards.
He seems like a honest person and like myself work the cleaning and restoration end.I never read in his post that he knows it all and neither do I that's for sure !
What I don't understand is why does it seem like so much bad blood between our work?
I would love to learn more about what you guys and gals go through and learn, it would help me on jobs and that is why I read the posts on this borad. Just becuse Im a cleaner and restorer does not mean I rip people off. I treat all my customers with respect and Ive never tried ripping off an insurance company and never will !

Don't everybody jump at once. For you adjusters who have read this and decided not to take me up on my offer, may I ask what your reasons were? I ask because I honestly feel that the class is the best one available regarding structural drying and how important psychrometry is to effective drying and documentation, and I believe that the more up to date contractors AND adjusters are on new technologies the better off all parties involved in a loss are. If I'm wrong in any way, or if the offer for whatever reason offends you, I apologize. The offer is made in good faith with the best of intentions.

P.S. If you are curious as to what a Certified Restorer is, here is an article from Insure.com that you may find somewhat informative.

| Thanks Bob for the link to the article concerning certification. I work locally (Kansas City) with certified contractors. Certification is certainly new and subjective to locale. The important issue to benefit here is what is resposible as far as what is spoken to the insured and what is documented in the file? This is a difficult subject with way too many "experts" of which I am not. |

No problem, Don. I'm not sure I understand the part about responsibility with what is said to the insured or documented in the file. I document as much as I can and answer every question asked by the insured or adjuster as honestly and completely as I can. That normally means I talk a lot and use a ton of qualifiers in both my speech and documentation. At least that way I'll never be accused of being misleading by failing to disclose something that could later come back and bite me on the butt. Shouldn't the adjuster and the insured be fully informed by the contractor/s involved?
Thanks,
