Gerald Berumen

As a property restoration project manager/estimator, I have over nine years of experience in leading and managing large-scale restoration projects in the Denver area. I have successfully completed projects involving water, fire, smoke, mold, and storm damage, delivering high-quality results within budget and time constraints. I have extensive knowledge of Xactimate software and IICRC standards, as well as strong communication and negotiation skills with insurance adjusters and clients.

I have a proven track record of supervising and coordinating multiple trades and crews, ensuring safety and compliance at all times. I am passionate about restoring properties to their pre-loss condition and exceeding customer expectations.
