Why OCERT1 beats “preferred vendors”
- Evidence over opinion: room-by-room media, moisture logs, and line-item quantities.
- Scope clarity: detailed estimates; appropriate trades & 10%+10% O&P when justified.
- Carrier coordination: contractor-to-carrier conversations focused on facts.
- Rebuild right: correct materials, finishes, and required code items.

Rebuttals (Contractor‑Safe, Evidence‑First)
Use these message blocks in emails or calls. We avoid coverage opinions and stick to construction facts, standards, and documentation.
“We don’t pay Overhead & Profit (O&P) on this claim.”
For clarity, our estimate reflects the trades and coordination actually required to restore pre‑loss condition. Where multiple trades and supervisory coordination are necessary, O&P represents real construction cost. We’re happy to review line items and quantities so the file reflects the documented work.
“Three days of drying is enough.”
We place and remove equipment based on readings, not a fixed duration. Our moisture logs and photos document conditions by material and location. We remove equipment when readings confirm dry‑standard, not by calendar days.
“Containment / air scrubbers aren’t necessary.”
The specified controls limit cross‑contamination and protect unaffected areas during removal/cleaning. Our photos show placement and work areas. If there’s a more efficient method that maintains jobsite protection, we’re open to it—please advise.
“Use our cheaper preferred vendor.”
We’re focused on accurate scope and workmanship to restore pre‑loss condition. If there are specific line items or quantities in question, we can compare against our documentation and resolve differences item by item.
“No code upgrades.”
Our scope separates base repair from code-required items. Where items are necessary to perform work to current code (e.g., safety or access), we identify them clearly for your review. Coverage is your call—our role is to document construction need.
“Just repair; replacement isn’t needed.”
We determine repair vs. replacement by material condition, manufacturer guidance, and uniform finish requirements. Photos and room views show where repairs would leave visible mismatches or fail to meet performance/finish expectations.
Disclaimer: These rebuttals communicate construction facts and documentation. They are not legal advice or coverage opinions.
