The Restoration Industry Association (RIA) announced that Vince Scarfo has joined the organization to lead its government affairs efforts, reinforcing the RIA’s commitment to advancing the restoration industry at the state and federal levels! 👏👋👋

Congratulations!

“The sharp increase in legislation affecting restorers makes one thing clear: our collective voice must be heard. It’s not that policymakers are adversaries—it’s that the restoration industry hasn’t consistently had a seat at the table.” said Scarfo.

“When we are not engaged, others shape our future. Having studied the RIA’s 80-year history, I believe there has never been a more important time for our industry to engage, advocate, and help shape policy alongside those responsible for setting the law.”

Restoration isn’t short on software — it’s short on connection.

As claims slow and documentation demands rise, 2026 won’t be about adding another app. It will be about AI quietly becoming the operating system behind the work — connecting calls, texts, photos, readings, and invoices into one clear story.

The latest article by Jacob Cleveland, partner at Breesy, breaks down what AI will actually do for restorers, what has to change inside companies, and how to separate real value from hype as the industry heads into its next shift.

Restoration tech is evolving—but people still come first.

In the latest episode, Holly Baldwin, Senior Customer Success Manager at DocuSketch, shares her unexpected journey into the restoration industry and nearly a decade of real-world experience working alongside contractors.

She explores how 360 documentation is improving customer experience, increasing transparency, and helping restorers get paid faster by cutting down adjuster visits and follow-up questions.

From fighting tech fatigue during slow seasons to creative ways teams are using 3D scans to build stronger relationships, this conversation is a great reminder that the best technology supports trust—it doesn’t replace it.

Will 2026 bring stronger policies in writing, setting the tone for a healthier workplace culture?
