      Is there any health risks with water restoration like the others? Is asbestos or other contaminants actually a risk? I’m taking the course for water and they bring that up quite a bit.

      @@gabe3134a certified expert is supposed to deal with asbestos but some mitigation companies don’t care and will put employees at risk by telling you to do it. Other than that you’re constantly exposed to a ton of dust, fiber glass from insolation, black mold, Sheetrock dust ect. The biggest risk is mold and whatever kind of dust you’re inhaling. Mold isn’t actually dangerous it is harmless even black mold but public fear of mold =$$$$ as for whatever else your breathing in time will tell the damage done

      How much is possible will depend on your ability to run the company as a leader
      That said, it is easy to make over a million dollars a year

    Great video Shane. Just signed up for your free course and going thought the modules. My question is if I don't have much experience in the residential water restoration space, am I better off going with a franchise or build something up. I don't want to go with franchisee but not sure if without too much experience in the space , that's the only way. Would appreciate your advice.

    When you say your net profit should be 50% annually on your first million dollars doing water jobs, do you mean after taxes?
    If not, where does the other 20-30% go?

    One thing I do that add to my bottom line everyone I service I set them up on a yearly testing and defogging service for a flat rate that never goes up as long as they prepay after that all they need to do is scheduled it when it's time .I created a contract that will be a asset to my company when I go sale it

    Please need your advise for best state or city to start water damage company in the states ?

      Any city or county with over 100k people
      In a perfect world you would be on the outskirts of a large city
      For instance we were 20 min south of Nashville
      Find the area outside of a city and make sure it isn’t the ghetto side

    Are there a need for more restoration companies and what are the problems that need to be solve in the industry? I’m a 23 year old guy that is not a handy person. I’m looking to start a business that has some problem nobody wants to solve and it has a demand for it?

    • @TheRestorationContractor
      @TheRestorationContractor  Год назад +3

      Hey Travon, I don't think you need to be "handy" for restoration.
      Restoration isn't for everyone though. You can make TONS of money but it is hard work.
      Most get into it for the $$$ (I did)
      Ultimately you get to help people when they are in dire need because they just suffered water, fire or mold damage.
      They are scared and need help.
      It is fun helping people on what is often times one of the worst days of their life
      Is there a demand.... ABSOLUTELY!
      Hope this helps

      @@TheRestorationContractor I am looking at the profit margins but the biggest thing I’m looking at is the growth of industry, the demand of the work, and what high paying jobs I can bring back to American.. I really don’t have a passionate for anything but I’m trying to create a driving purpose to start a business. Helping people is the biggest driving purpose for me. What is the hardest about the the work itself and the sales department?

    I strongly disagree with the profit margin for reconstruction. I'm sub for a few restoration business's right now and clear 30 to 40% profit. Imagine when I start getting these jobs myself. These companies take 40% off the top before I even see the job.

    You're doing it wrong if you're only making 10% on recon, my company is sitting at 35% on the year after all overhead. I've done $5 million in revenue this year
