Lake-effect storms, aging infrastructure, and freeze-thaw cycles make Rochester neighborhoods especially vulnerable to leaks, floods, and burst pipes. When moisture invades finished spaces, drywall swells, framing warps, and hidden mold can appear in as little as 48 hours. That’s why CountBricks combines instant AI estimating with licensed restoration crews to move from discovery to repair faster than traditional contractors.
1. Voice-Activated Site Capture
A project manager walks the affected rooms with a mobile device. As they describe soaked carpet or buckled hardwood, CountBricks transcribes the conversation and tags each material in real time.
2. Instant Cost Model
Because CountBricks pulls live pricing from regional suppliers, you see up-to-the-minute material costs for subfloor sheathing, insulation, and vapor barriers—critical when prices fluctuate after large storm events.
3. Automated Blueprint Takeoffs
If you have digital house plans, CountBricks AI highlights impacted walls and floors, calculating square footage and linear feet within seconds. No manual scaling, no missed joist bays.
4. Digital Quote & e-Signature
Homeowners receive a branded PDF proposal ready to sign on any device. Scope, timeline, and payment schedule are crystal clear, reducing delays that can worsen water damage.
• Emergency water extraction and drying equipment placement
• Selective demolition of wet drywall, plaster, and trim
• Antimicrobial treatment to inhibit mold growth
• Structural framing repairs and joist sistering
• Insulation replacement with code-compliant R-values
• Finish carpentry, painting, and flooring reinstallation
Extent of Saturation
Surface moisture meters may show low readings while hidden cavities remain soaked. CountBricks thermal imaging pinpoints moisture for precise demo limits, saving materials.
Material Type
Hardwood planks require slower, layered drying compared to carpeting. Exotic species might need mill-matched replacements, raising costs.
Mechanical & Electrical Systems
Flooded junction boxes or ductwork must be inspected and often replaced. CountBricks’ database updates local electrician rates weekly.
Insurance Requirements
Policy language can dictate “like-kind and quality” replacements. Our AI inserts insurer-approved line items automatically, minimizing claim revisions.
1. Hour 0-1: Call CountBricks at 585-XXX-XXXX. A coordinator dispatches a crew and sets up a shared online project hub.
2. Hour 1-4: On-site documentation, voice notes, and moisture mapping feed directly into the CountBricks platform. A preliminary estimate is generated before the crew leaves.
3. Day 1-3: Dry-out phase with daily moisture logs automatically uploaded for homeowner and insurer review.
4. Day 3-5: Selective demolition and sanitation. Adjusted estimate produced in minutes if scope changes.
5. Day 6-14: Reconstruction, finish work, and quality checks. Homeowner receives live progress photos through CountBricks.com/portfolio.
