What does
IICRC mean?

1. What is the IICRC?
The IICRC is a standard-setting body and certification registry that develops and monitors educational programs and
standards for the inspection, cleaning and disaster restoration industries.


2. Why was IICRC formed?
The IICRC was formed in 1972 to serve as an independent, non-profit certification body, to set and promote high
standards and ethics; and to advance communication and technical proficiency within the inspection, cleaning and
disaster restoration service industries.


3. How does certification benefit consumers?
Consumers have assurance that when they hire IICRC-Certified firms or technicians, they have hired experts who
will provide reasonable assurance that work will be completed in accordance with the industry's "standard of care."


4. How many certified firms does IICRC have?
The IICRC currently has some 3,500 Certified Firms.


5. How do I know a company is Certified by the IICRC?
Every firm that has been approved and certified by the IICRC is added to the IICRC database.


The IICRC provides a consumer referral service to locate trained and certified cleaning and restoration firms and
technicians. Before hiring anyone: confirm that they are trained and certified in the type of work to be performed
and ask for credentials; informally interview the company representative or technician; obtain a written estimate of
the work to be completed, and receive a written contract or invoice confirming the total price along with any
statements or guarantees.
