RG America Subsidiary Promotes Yates

RG America Inc., a Dallas-based insurance restoration company specializing in recovery, remediation, roofing and re-construction of insurance losses, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, RG Restoration Inc. d/b/a The Restoration Group (RG), has promoted Jerod Yates to president of its restoration operations.

Yates joined RG America as general manager for RG’s remediation division, a/k/a The Remediation Group, shortly after the acquisition of his highly successful company, Total Professional Restoration Inc., in October of 2005. Under his leadership, the remediation division has experienced phenomenal growth and success, and as a result, Yates has been asked to lead the entire Restoration Group, as it continues to expand its portfolio of projects along the Gulf and Atlantic Coasts and prepares for the 2006 Hurricane Season.

RG Restoration, Inc. is made up of several main factions that specialize in insurance restoration for commercial properties, including The Recovery Group (claims estimating), The Remediation Group (emergency services and clean-up after a loss), The Reconstruction Group (reconstruction) and The Roofing Group (roofing services). Several ancillary divisions exist to support these primary business units.

RG experienced a tremendous amount of fiscal growth last year, with major contracts stemming from Hurricanes Katrina, Wilma and Rita, and anticipates even more business this year as experts predict an equally devastating storm season for 2006.
