How can a homeowner check Elite's credentials?
You can verify Elite yourself before any work starts. Elite is an IICRC Certified Firm, BBB accredited with an A+ rating and Iowa registered contractor #C151765, based at 751 NE 46th Ave in Des Moines. You're free to choose your own repair contractor, and we hand over photos, moisture logs and a scope of the work.
What typically goes wrong for homeowners?
Most calls fall into four groups. The details below are the risks we plan for in these buildings; every loss is different, and the inspection tells us what yours needs.
Water
Frozen and burst pipes, sump pump failures in finished basements, water heater and washer leaks.
Fire and smoke
Kitchen fires, and smoke and soot that can travel beyond the room that burned.
Mold
Damp basements, bathrooms and attics, and leaks that stayed hidden too long.
Other
Sewage backups and hoarding situations.
