Day 1 — assessment and documentation
Day 1 in Boca Raton: a licensed crew arrives (often within 60 minutes for emergencies), walks the property with you, and documents damage with photos and moisture readings. They explain what is wet, what is smoke-affected, or where mold is active — before opening walls.
