United Fire and Water Damage Restoration Inc.

100% Coverage for plumbers warranty work offered by United Fire & Water

Stan,

Thanks for your time on the phone earlier - I appreciate it. Hopefully the program I have proposed here will be of interest to you.

Currently we are servicing plumbing contractors with a program that effectively allows them to have any warranty work done for free. What happens is this - We present you with materials to pass out to your technicians so that every time B&D www.bdplumbing.net has a water damage related response your technicians or the property owner calls United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc. www.unitedfw.com When that happens we arrive on scene and contract the home or business owner. As soon as we get the contract for restoration work, your technician receives a $100 cash referral fee - this is important because it helps to keep your guys motivated when it comes to referring our services. Plus they have a chance to earn a little extra cash. When UFW completes the job, we send you a dollar for dollar credit for all restoration work completed at the property. This includes drying equipment and labor associated with the water loss. This would not include construction costs associated with rebuilding the property if in fact it needed those services. To date you guys have had two warranty issues - had those been referral jobs from your technician instead of warranty work calls you would have a credit for exactly $3920.54 - that was the total amount we billed before discounts to B&D. Instead B&D was invoiced $2924.54 That is a $6845.08 swing, and that is just in the last 16 days - If you extrapolate that out over a 12 month period you are looking at substantial savings.

The key to the program is getting your guys on board with the $100 cash referral fee - and if it comes down from the top we usually see very good results!

If you guys would like to discuss this further I’d be happy to sit down with you again. Also, if you’re interested in moving forward with a program of this type, I can arrange to meet with you and your staff at your convenience to give a short presentation.

Please let me know!!

Thanks,

Planned Response for Riverstone Residential

Jose,

Let me thank you again for the opportunity to present Riverstone Residential Group www.riverstoneres.com with an estimate for fire damage restoration services at the St Jean Apartments. Please find attached to this package estimates for services currently required for occupancy at units #5313 & #1707, as well as additional information on references and services provided by United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc.

After some reflection on your present situation with regards to recent fires at St Jean Apartments, I have addressed some of the present factors (listed below) that will help you mitigate financial loss. There are a number of factors that are currently affecting your bottom line that are not being addressed for the units affected by fire. These costs can be easily avoided, and will be considerable given the number of units that have recently been affected by fire, smoke and water damage. United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc. can help Riverstone Residential LLC to reduce or eliminate some of the costs associated with secondary damage caused by a lack of immediate attention to these matters.

An action plan is necessary for Riverstone Residential Group www.riverstoneres.com to realize some of these cost eliminating options starting with these essential steps:

• Immediate response to all fire/water damage incidents at Riverstone Residential Properties
• Proper management of fire/water damage events
• Specific and immediate assessment of situation, with protocol determined and then presented to Riverstone Residential to mitigate loss
• Water extraction and dehumidification within 24 hours of initial call to mitigate microbial growth within affected and surrounding units
• Restoration services to begin as soon as possible
• Renovations to be completed as soon as possible
• Certificate of occupancy to be issued as soon as possible

Addressing these issues with an action plan prepared by United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc. www.unitedfw.com will help Riverstone Residential to not only eliminate or reduce costs associated with secondary damage but to also get those units affected by fire and water damage to be occupied as soon as possible. This type of pre-planned response will save Riverstone Residential tens of thousands of dollars over the course of just a few fire/water related incidents.

Our goal is to assist Riverstone Residential in allowing these units to generate a positive cash flow at the earliest possible opportunity. A lack of ability to effectively make decisions at certain levels of middle management may seriously hamper vacancy rates and therefore potential rental profits. The bottom line is this - with a pre-positioned catastrophic response program of this type in place Riverstone Residential could make decisions effectively at the property management level, and potentially procure savings in the hundred’s of thousands of dollars over the course of just one year in the Baton Rouge market alone.

In addition, our “Pre-positioned Catastrophic Response Program” will enable Riverstone Residential to realize a 10% discount for any incomplete estimates (presently at $80,000 +/-) that have been presented by UFW Restoration Inc., as well as ALL future billing for ANY restoration service offered by United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc. This program and all applicable discounts would be extended to ALL Louisiana based Riverstone Residential Properties.

Our services include the following:

· 24 hour response

· Louisiana State Licensing

· Full Restoration Services – including commercial and residential reconstruction services

· Upon arrival, complete investigation of loss, containment and loss mitigation procedures

· Structural drying

· Smoke and soot removal

· Odor mitigation and deodorization

· Content pack out, inventory and on site / off site restoration

· Air scrubbing (HEPA or High Efficiency Particulate Air)

· O- Zone machines

Mold issues with new construction

Nathan,

Thank you for your time yesterday. I appreciate the fact that you have considered United Fire & Water Damage Restoration Inc. for your remediation project.

I wanted to expand a bit on our conversation from yesterday. I feel as though there were a few things I did not express clearly, and I wanted to share them with you.

You as a company certainly have the option, and quite possibly the ability, to address the situation you currently have at your Hammond project. I realize that to get your property back to a pre loss condition is a financial burden, and that there will be - and should be serious consideration given to the options you have as a developer. You may step in, purchase the necessary equipment needed and undertake this project yourselves and complete it without a single bump in the road. You may step in and get half way through the project and come to the conclusion you need some help. You may realize all of this after the fact as well. What ever you decide is up to you.

I’m not writing today because we need work, though we certainly are interested in your project. I’m writing to shed light on the bigger picture, and help you make the right decision today – regardless of whether it involves the use of my company or not.

These are your issues as I am sure you are well aware

• Moisture
• Microbial growth
• Embedded microbial growth
• Atmospheric issues within each unit
• Occupancy
• Future Liability

I’ll be honest with you; I was a bit shaken by your counterpart yesterday. I’m sorry, I did not get his card and I have forgotten his name, but I felt as though I was being interrogated – and I guess if I were just handed an estimate for $200k – I would probably be doing the same. The bottom line is your company had 30,000+ square feet of wood (organic) structure, most of which is to be living space, exposed to the elements for six months.

There is obvious water and microbial damage to the property. This is no doubt a liability to you, as well as the contractor who eventually takes on the remediation, and the CIH who clears your property for occupancy. You will eventually have 20 owners in these properties. 20 people you don’t know. 20 owners that may have issues with their unit or you as a developer. I would think that as a responsible and reputable builder that now is not the time to take short cuts. In order to avoid potential law suits and big time headaches on your part, any professional licensed mold remediation company should be contracted for this project.

I don’t usually play the “mold” card when it comes to business, as I think most of it is hype personally. But your situation is different. You actually have visible organic growth and water staining to the entire project, 30,000+ square feet – most of which will be occupied as living space. This can not be ignored, and it has been up to this point. All it will take is one person who is immunization deficient or hyper sensitive or allergic and you will have a very serious law suit on your hands. Consider the fact you may have very small children or elderly people living there and it only compounds the seriousness of the situation. Odds are long for this scenario, but the odds are irrelevant. You have to do what’s best for your company at this point. And cutting corners with regards to this matter is not in the best interest of XXXXXXX

All I am suggesting here Nathan is that you have any, and I mean any, reputable, licensed company perform the work at your project. You as a company will avoid future liability by having the property properly remediated, and subsequently cleared and signed off by a certified industrial hygienist for occupancy.

Again – It is my goal to work with you to meet your needs. If you would like to discuss this further I am available anytime.

Thanks,
