Emergency Planning for Homes & Businesses in Metro Atlanta

Verus Restoration offers emergency planning — what the industry calls pre-loss planning — for homeowners, property managers and businesses throughout Metro Atlanta and Northeast Georgia. We walk your property with you and build a Verus Ready Plan: where the shut-offs are, who to call, what to protect first, and exactly what to do in the first ten minutes of a burst pipe, a kitchen fire, a storm leak or a mold discovery. When damage happens, the first hour is spent working, not orienting.

Homeowners, HOAs, property managers, businesses

Norcross, GA · Metro Atlanta

Metro Atlanta has a loss calendar: hard freezes that burst pipes in winter, severe thunderstorms and tornado watches in spring and fall, tropical remnants that drop days of rain, and a summer so humid that any leak becomes a mold question within days. Most of the damage from those events happens in the first hours — while someone is hunting for a shut-off valve or deciding who to call. Most restoration companies only offer planning to businesses. We think a family’s home deserves the same. Call or text (404) 983-0966 to schedule a Ready Plan visit.

What Goes Into Your Verus Ready Plan

A Ready Plan is short, specific and built for a bad day. Everything in it is something you’d otherwise be trying to find or remember while water is running down a wall.

• Shut-off locations for water, gas and electrical — photographed and labeled so anyone in the household can find them
• Priority areas and items — documents, electronics, medications, valuables and the irreplaceables
• Decision-makers and contacts — who can authorize work, who to reach after hours, who lives or works on site
• Insurance details — carrier, agent, and where the policy lives, so the claim starts the same day
• Your trade contacts — plumber, electrician, HVAC, roofer — and the ones we coordinate with
• Property notes — water heater age, sump pump, roof type, basement and crawl-space access, known trouble spots
• First-ten-minutes steps for each type of damage, written for your property, not a generic brochure
• Verus on file — your plan is in our system, so the first call is already informed

A Specific Plan for Each Kind of Damage

• Water

  Burst pipes, failed water heaters, appliance lines, sump pump loss. Where to shut it off, what to move, what not to touch, when to call.

• Fire & smoke

  After everyone is safe: who to call first, how to secure the property, what not to clean, and how contents and smoke odor are handled.

• Mold

  Where moisture tends to hide in your property, early warning signs to watch for, and what to do the day you find growth.

• Storm

  Roof damage, fallen trees, wind-driven rain, power loss. Tarping and board-up priorities, documentation steps, and a weather-season checklist.

How a Verus Ready Plan Comes Together

1. Schedule a visit

   Call or text and we’ll set a time that works — evenings and weekends included for homeowners.

2. Walk the property together

   We locate and photograph shut-offs, note the risks specific to your property, and talk through your priorities and who needs to be in the plan.

3. Receive your Ready Plan

   A written plan you can keep on the fridge, in a drawer and on your phone — and a copy on file with Verus.

4. Keep it current

   New water heater, a renovation, new tenants, a new address: tell us and we update the plan. We’ll also check in before storm season.
