DAMAGE ASSESSMENT AND INSURANCE CLAIMS MANAGEMENT
Every successful restoration begins with an accurate evaluation. Our process starts with a comprehensive on-site property inspection to identify visible and hidden damage caused by floods, fire, storms, or mold.
Using advanced tools such as moisture meters, infrared imaging, and surface testing, our specialists detect issues that might otherwise be missed — including structural weakening, trapped water, or early mold growth.
Once the inspection is complete, we review your insurance policy and explain your coverage in clear terms. NYHR’s experienced insurance restoration team helps you file and manage your claim, ensuring all documentation, photos, and estimates meet your provider’s requirements. We handle the process from start to finish — minimizing delays and maximizing your settlement.
Many NYC homeowners are surprised by how much more coverage they qualify for once our experts document the full extent of the damage.
Because we understand the complexities of New York insurance policies, we make sure you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
NYHR works with all major insurance companies and independent adjusters across New York, coordinating directly with them on your behalf to ensure a smooth, fair, and timely claims process.
RESTORATION PLANNING AND DESIGNING
After your claim is approved, our restoration experts collaborate with you to develop a personalized repair and renovation plan.
Whether you’re restoring a water-damaged apartment in Manhattan, repairing fire damage in a Brooklyn brownstone, or addressing storm damage in Queens, NYHR tailors every project to your property’s unique structure and style.
During restoration, we also identify and safely address hidden hazards such as asbestos or lead paint to ensure your environment is healthy and compliant with safety standards.
Our design team assists with layout adjustments, material selections, and color coordination, ensuring your restored home not only meets but exceeds your expectations. We also navigate necessary NYC building permits and co-op board approvals, streamlining what can otherwise be a complicated process.
Before work begins, you’ll review a full restoration timeline and estimate — so you know exactly what to expect and when.

Avoid These Common
Restoration Mistakes
After property damage, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed — and even small missteps can delay recovery or reduce your insurance payout. At NYHR, we help clients avoid these common restoration mistakes from the very start:
• DELAYING THE INITIAL INSPECTION – The longer water, fire, or mold damage goes unchecked, the more extensive and costly repairs become. Immediate professional assessment prevents secondary damage and mold growth.
• RELYING ON SURFACE-LEVEL CLEANUP – Drying visible water or repainting walls may hide the problem but doesn’t fix it. Hidden moisture or soot can compromise air quality or lead to future damage.
• FILING INCOMPLETE INSURANCE CLAIMS – Missing documentation or unclear damage reports often result in reduced settlements. NYHR manages every detail, ensuring your claim is accurate, complete, and supported by professional documentation.
• CHOOSING UNLICENSED OR INEXPERIENCED CONTRACTORS – Restoration in NYC requires strict compliance with building codes and insurance standards. Our certified restoration specialists follow IICRC and EPA guidelines to guarantee long-term safety and quality.
By knowing what to avoid, you can save time, protect your property, and make the most of your insurance coverage. NYHR guides you through every step — from inspection and claims to full restoration — with experience, precision, and care.
