Preserve Your Property Following A Loss

Barrett Dick • January 20, 2021

When large losses occur, vacant buildings and ones with little to no security presence are more prone to vandals, burglaries and other security issues during the restoration process. These crimes can cause additional property damage, which ultimately will cost you more money in the end. After experiencing a large loss, most people do not know the right steps to secure their business or home. In this article, you will learn more about how to perserve your property before a loss, as well as what our team at Guarantee Restoration Services does to protect your building after a large loss!


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS BEFORE A LOSS OCCURS

Before a loss occurs, it is important to invest in good exterior lighting and cameras. With today’s technology, cameras that can monitor your business are more accessible, affordable and practical than they ever have been. There several options on the market, such as Google Nest and Ring. These have a simple self-assembly, so you have less barriers to installing security measures at your property. Most of the self-assembly options, as well as traditional security systems now have mobile apps to signal alerts to your cell phone. This makes it much easier to watch your property before, during and after a loss.


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS DURING A LOSS

Whenever it safe to, GRS can make the first step in safeguarding your property. Before the restoration process starts, we board up doors and windows with plywood. By having your home or business professionally boarded, you can trust your property is protected from unwanted visitors and burglars.


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS AFTER A LOSS

As our team begins the restoration process, it is important to keep all debris and trash as contained or cleared out as possible. At Guarantee Restoration Services, we strive to treat your property as if it was our own. From our project managers to our technicians, we hold each of our employees to the same, high standard. What does this mean? It means that all trash and debris is cleared and disposed of immediately.

At Guarantee Restoration Services, our people are at the heart of everything we do. This month, we’re excited to introduce Christy Jones Huff , a Business Development Representative at our Jackson, Mississippi Branch who joined the team just over a year ago in January 2024 . From Property Management to Business Development Christy’s journey to GRS started long before she stepped through our doors. A Jackson State University graduate , she earned her degree in Mass Communications/Public Relations with a minor in Marketing . She then spent 19 years as a property manager , gaining invaluable experience in building relationships and problem-solving, which are skills that now serve her well in business development. It is safe to say that she is well-versed in the multifamily vertical that we serve, but she also works with several other industries, such as state entities and housing authorities.  Life Outside of Work Originally from Farmhaven, MS , Christy stays busy outside of work with a full house. She’s married, a proud mom to a college-aged son, and spends most of her free time keeping up with a very active toddler —a job she jokingly refers to as "taming a toddler." When she finds a rare quiet moment, she enjoys crafting, though she explained that those moments are few and far between these days.
