Verification
Expert reviewers
No expert reviewer works with HyreRestore yet. We are recruiting, and until a qualified person agrees, is checked with the body that issued their credential, and signs a specific page, no page on this site claims expert review. The table below lists the credentials we need for water, mold, health and insurance pages.
Where this stands on October 22, 2026. Reviewers signed: none. Pages carrying a reviewer’s name: none. Every page is written and checked by the HyreRestore Research Desk, which is an organization, not a person (who writes HyreRestore).
Which credentials are we recruiting for?
| Subject | Credential we need | Pages they would sign |
|---|---|---|
| Water damage and structural drying | An IICRC-certified Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT), ideally also Applied Structural Drying (ASD) | Service guides, the first 24 hours, drying tools |
| Mold remediation | An IICRC Applied Microbial Remediation Technician (AMRT); in Florida or Texas, a state-licensed mold remediator | Mold remediation, mold tools |
| Mold and health | A physician, or a certified industrial hygienist (CIH) | Any sentence about exposure, symptoms or who should leave the house |
| Insurance claims | A licensed public adjuster, or an attorney who practices insurance coverage law | Insurance claims, coverage, adjusters, assignment of benefits |
IICRC certifications are held by individual technicians, not companies. Florida and Texas license mold remediation; other states may not.
How will a reviewer be checked?
- The credential, with its issuer. The IICRC for WRT, ASD and AMRT; the state insurance department for a public adjuster; the state bar for an attorney; the medical board or the certifying body for a physician or hygienist.
- No conflict. A reviewer will not be a restoration company we could introduce homeowners to, and will not review a page about their own firm.
- A signature on a page, with a date. The reviewer’s name goes on the pages they read, with the date they read them, and nowhere else.
Which pages wait for a reviewer?
Our editorial policy requires a qualified reviewer on every regulatory, insurance and safety-adjacent page we add. New pages of that kind will not ship without one. Existing pages describe standard forms and public guidance from the EPA, FEMA and the IICRC, and say what they cannot tell you about your own house or policy.
