Engineered scopes of work for insurance claims

Disputing with insurance companies to obtain approval for a proper scope of work halts projects before they begin and can lead to scopes of repair which do not fully comply with manufacturers specifications and industry standards. Complete Building Solutions’ streamlined system helps combat this issue. In Minnesota, an area with high occurrences of storm and hail damage, our services help contractors obtain correct funding so they can perform code compliant work while following manufacturer specifications and industry standards.
