Restoration

Scope

What fits this trade on Bidmark.

Restoration on Bidmark covers water-damage mitigation, fire-and-soot cleanup, storm-damage rebuild, and mold remediation — the four sub-niches where post-loss single-vendor pressure and last-minute scope creep do the most damage. A sealed window forces every licensed contractor in your ZIP to bid the same scope at the same time, so the envelope you open is the cheapest compliant path back to a habitable home — not the only number the adjuster quoted you. Posting a scope that fits the sealed-envelope model — work that can be photographed, line-itemed, and bid head-to-head against other licensed contractors in your state — is the fastest path to a competitive bid ledger.

• Credential gate: every bidder clears a one-time license check and carries active general liability at the moment your window closes.
• Fee tier: the same tiered fee schedule applies to restoration as to every other trade — your envelope cost scales to your scope.
• Sealed window: every bidder parties to the same scope and the same close time, so the envelope you open is a real head-to-head price, not a last-minute undercut.
