Mitigation
Examples include extraction, containment, selective removal, structural drying, smoke and soot cleaning, source control, air filtration, monitoring, and stabilization.
Technical Work Categories
Mitigation and reconstruction are different phases of property recovery.
This distinction is about the physical work—not insurance coverage.
Repair / reconstruction
Examples include replacing removed drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinets, trim, paint systems, and other finished building components after the affected condition is ready for reconstruction.
Whether any particular work is covered or paid under an insurance policy is separate from the technical distinction and is not determined by SDM.
