This one time, i got an old time contractor to explain it to me. "You have to teach your techs how to even park your vans, if want to try it, give the keys to 10 of your techs to park the van in front of a house. They all will park differently, and one of them will park on the grass".

I will never forget that lesson.

Solid stuff! I work For Champion Cleaning Systems Sharpsburg Ga! We’ve stole so many jobs from competitors because of this knowledge! Let’s go!

Great info.... It's still best to ask when it happened or date they discovered it because that will determine what category of water you're dealing with and determine whether demo, pack out, PPE, etc. Is needed.
Yes, it's important to be careful not to narrate that it's an ongoing issue when you're dealing with a claim. As restors, we are there to help the customer, not the insurance.

Keep on going with this brother

We are in a suburban area where street parking is common. We park in the street and set cones. I avoid pulling into driveways if possible, but if we are using a driveway we back in unless it's really long.

Shane you missed a critical point. When was the house built ? For abatement reasons, as well as health reasons. Observe everything asbestos related!

“You tell them not say that” I get it but anyone that is willing to coach anyone with good intentions or not has ethical issues. Denied or not the work will still be needed but you coaching them is unethical to me that is. Not popular opinion but I can’t take any advice from someone unethical.
