How he runs the work

What Jake expects on every Gateway job

Live phone

A person answers, day or night

Gateway answers (314) 947-3419 live, twenty-four seven. Water keeps moving after business hours, so the phone does too.

Written scope

Removal is based on what the materials show

Jake’s crews scope work from the affected materials and moisture readings, not from an assumption that every room needs demolition. Jake collects mold samples himself and sends them to an independent laboratory for analysis.

Documentation

The paperwork is part of the job

Photos, scope notes and drying logs go into the file so homeowners can support their insurance claim. The carrier decides coverage and payment.
