In the Texas restoration industry, you aren’t just fighting mold and floodwaters—you’re fighting a clock. Whether you are navigating the humidity-driven claims in Houston, hail damage in the D-FW Metroplex, or the rapid residential growth in Austin, your cash flow depends on insurance carriers and homeowners releasing funds on time.
The Account Reconciliation Team provides a sophisticated alternative to traditional, aggressive debt collection. We offer a localized, reputation-safe strategy that ensures your “Net-30” doesn’t turn into “Net-Never.”
Transparent Recovery Pricing
We believe in keeping your profit margins intact. You choose the plan that suits your ledger:
-
Fixed-Fee Mediation:
$15 per account. We initiate the recovery process, and you keep 100% of the money collected. -
Contingency Recovery:
40% fee. If we don’t recover your money, you don’t pay us a dime.
Pro-Tip: Most of our Texas partners consult their CPA to declare our fixed-fee service as a Business Expense, effectively making professional recovery a zero-cost line item on their taxes.
Why the “Velvet Hammer” Outperforms Traditional Collections
Restoration is a high-stakes, high-emotion business. Arguments over “workmanship” or “insurance depreciation” are common excuses for non-payment. Rather than arguing against the debtor, we work with them.
We use a diplomatic mediation style—firm enough to secure the payment but respectful enough to protect your 5-star reputation in the local community. By giving the debtor the “will to pay” you before other creditors, we move your invoice to the front of the line. Before we call, we perform a litigation scrub, bankruptcy check, and USPS address verification to ensure we are targeting the right people with the right strategy.

A Note from the Reconciliation Team
We understand that your employees were hired to be technicians, project managers, and estimators—not debt collectors. When you task your staff with chasing past-due invoices, it creates friction and lowers morale. By assigning your accounts to us early, you significantly improve your recovery rate. Our most amicable strategies are most effective when the “service memory” is still fresh in the customer’s mind.
