The 24-Hour Tech is a training manual for those in the water damage or "restoration" field. This manual walks the reader through the 20-Step Mitigation Process. It is intended as a complete training manual for new Water Damage Technicians who wish to quickly learn how to properly document insurance losses involving water damage. Andrew McCabe developed this process over years of water damage claims experience. He still uses it today in his consulting practice - Claims Delegates. If you want to learn quickly how to properly document and perform water damage mitigation, without paying for an expensive certification class, The 24-Hour Tech is perfect for you. The process and manual are also the perfect complement to recent grads of WRT or ASD training classes. You may understand HOW to dry a structure, but The 24-Hour Tech teaches you how to get PAID by insurance companies. The results of the 20-Step Mitigation Process are meant to be handed to a professional Xactimate estimator and allow them to quickly create comprehensive estimates for insurance adjusters and carriers.
