AI marketing for water damage and restoration businesses
Nobody plans to call you. They call at 2am with water coming through a ceiling, and they call whoever comes to mind first. Flo builds that recall in the months before the flood, then handles the review replies after it.
Your marketing has to work on somebody who is frightened and has never thought about your trade until tonight.
Written for homeowners, plumbers, agents and adjusters at once.
Who do they call at two in the morning?
Whoever a plumber names, or an insurance agent, or whoever turns up first in a panicked search. All three of those can be influenced and almost nobody in this trade tries. The work itself is urgent. The marketing is not, so it never happens. Here is the anatomy.
Restoration use cases
Four jobs the platform runs on a restoration account, weighted toward the referral sources that actually send work.
Referral Source Content
Plumbers, agents and property managers send most of this work. Stay in front of them between emergencies.
The 48 Hour Story
Explain why speed matters, using the window EPA actually publishes, before anyone needs it.
Insurance Explainers
Most of the anxiety in this job is about coverage, and clear answers reduce disputes later.
Review Replies
Answer every review carefully, because these customers were having the worst week of their year.
Other home services trades we set up differently
Restoration is the trade where the customer is in crisis and the referrer makes the decision.
Marketing by company size
The same platform, framed by how many trucks you dispatch, not by what you install.
You have questions. We have answers.
What comes up on the first call with a restoration business.
Our work comes from plumbers and adjusters. Is consumer content pointless?
Not pointless, secondary. The referral sources are the priority and they read differently. A plumber wants to know you will not embarrass them. An adjuster wants documentation. Both deserve their own content.
Can we publish about insurance without giving advice?
Yes, and the line is between explaining a process and interpreting a policy. What a claim usually involves is useful. What a specific policy covers is a conversation for the adjuster, and that stays in approval.
Is it tasteless to market during storm season?
It depends entirely on the content. Practical preparation information is welcome. Anything that reads as excitement about a disaster is not, and that is the line these drafts hold.
Photos of damage or photos of the finished job?
Both, with permission, and the drying equipment in between. People have no idea what this work involves, and showing the process is what makes a stranger trust you at 2am.
