Baton Rouge Contractor Responds To Hurricane Florence

Shawn Folks • September 25, 2018

Guarantee Restoration Services, a leader in the restoration industry along the gulf coast, has mobilized project managers and technicians to help our partners in North Carolina and assist them in responding to the damages caused by Hurricane Florence on the East Coast.


Guarantee Restoration has determined the company’s resources will be staged outside of Wilmington, NC and other cities in the upcoming days. Resources will include equipment for water extraction and drying, generators, project managers and other trained professionals. Over the past weekend Guarantee Restoration began preparations to send equipment by loading trucks to assist with disaster efforts.


“We’ve been called to help North Carolina and the surrounding areas recover from the storm. We understand the need to assist our friends with returning operations to their businesses and put people back into their homes.” said Shawn Folks, CEO of Guarantee Restoration.


Guarantee Restoration’s response teams will be arriving along the coast of North Carolina, especially the Wilmington area over the next few days. Guarantee Restoration has been requested to assist clients on the east coast, to ensure the correct equipment and other resources is ready to respond as soon as flood waters recede. If needed, the company plans to bring their national partners’ resources with Restoration Affiliates. RA is a network of restoration contractors who bring national coverage with local expertise.

For five and a half years, I’ve had the privilege of writing our Meet the Team blog series. About two years into my role, our department grew with the addition of a third team member. This November, I’m excited to introduce you to someone who has already made a positive impact on our team — our GRS Marketing Assistant, Savannah Dear . As we approach Thanksgiving in just two short weeks, it’s hard to believe the holiday season is nearly here. No matter how busy this time of year becomes, one thing remains constant: when it comes to property damage emergencies, our team is always here for you . Meet the Team | Savannah Dear Savannah was born in Monroe, Louisiana, and raised in Clinton, Mississippi. After graduating from Clinton High School in 2018, she attended the University of Mississippi, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Integrated Communication in 2023.

Her favorite pastimes include exploring the city, trying new restaurants with her boyfriend Jeremiah, spending time with friends, attending concerts, and playing with her dog, Honey. Singing is one of her favorite ways to unwind, and she will never turn down a karaoke night! She’s also an avid traveler, reality TV enthusiast, and sports fan.
