Preserve Your Property Following A Loss

Barrett Dick • Jan 20, 2021

When large losses occur, vacant buildings and ones with little to no security presence are more prone to vandals, burglaries and other security issues during the restoration process. These crimes can cause additional property damage, which ultimately will cost you more money in the end. After experiencing a large loss, most people do not know the right steps to secure their business or home. In this article, you will learn more about how to perserve your property before a loss, as well as what our team at Guarantee Restoration Services does to protect your building after a large loss!


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS BEFORE A LOSS OCCURS

Before a loss occurs, it is important to invest in good exterior lighting and cameras. With today’s technology, cameras that can monitor your business are more accessible, affordable and practical than they ever have been. There several options on the market, such as Google Nest and Ring. These have a simple self-assembly, so you have less barriers to installing security measures at your property. Most of the self-assembly options, as well as traditional security systems now have mobile apps to signal alerts to your cell phone. This makes it much easier to watch your property before, during and after a loss.


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS DURING A LOSS

Whenever it safe to, GRS can make the first step in safeguarding your property. Before the restoration process starts, we board up doors and windows with plywood. By having your home or business professionally boarded, you can trust your property is protected from unwanted visitors and burglars.


PRESERVE YOUR PROPERTY: STEPS AFTER A LOSS

As our team begins the restoration process, it is important to keep all debris and trash as contained or cleared out as possible. At Guarantee Restoration Services, we strive to treat your property as if it was our own. From our project managers to our technicians, we hold each of our employees to the same, high standard.

Every time I write the May Meet the Team feature, my first instinct is to start it with “It’s gonna be MAY!” Must be the millennial in me to want to begin it with the iconic *NSYNC track. I digress. We are back with this month’s featured employee, Jordan Steib, who serves as the Marketing Manager of GRS. Jordan was born and raised in the South Louisiana city of Thibodaux. After graduating from high school, he attended Nicholls State University before joining the workforce. He was a Lead Administrative Assistant at the Terrebonne ARC for a decade. When he moved to Baton Rouge in 2017, he served in a few administrative and office management positions before joining our GRS team in December 2019. Since arriving at Guarantee Restoration Services, Jordan as served as administrative support for the Business Development and Marketing department and as an Executive Assistant to our CEO, Shawn Folks. In July 2022, he was promoted to Marketing Manager, where he has thrived in planning and filming most of our video content. During his tenure, he has also hired a marketing assistant, which has vastly improved the department’s functionality and capabilities. He has been instrumental in building and expanding our brand awareness. We have also increased the support we can provide our fellow GRS team members. In addition, we have steadily cultivated a better sense of teamwork and community through our company culture engagement activities, such as National Cocoa Day and “Pumpkins and Pies.” Personally, he is the second born of three sons to his parents, Martha and Damian. He is the proud cat father of Bridgette Anne Steib, who turns 3 years old this month. In his spare time, he has recently taken up home wine making and has really enjoyed the (literal) fruits of his labor. He has made wine with strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, cherries and raspberries. His hobbies also include camping, tubing, boating and fishing with friends. Additionally, over the years, he has become quite the home chef and enjoys cooking for himself and having friends over for dinner. He enjoys being creative and decorating for different holidays. Finally, when he can go home to Thibodaux, he enjoys nothing more than spending time with his parents, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephew and nieces.
