A Fresh Start Driven by Gen Z: Meet Olivia Haynes

A new face of 911 Restoration of North West Arkansas is officially here! Family, community, and expert fire, water and mold remediation services remain our top focus, and now we’re excited to share a fresh new chapter with you.

Today, we are thrilled to introduce a bright star in our story: Olivia Haynes, the youngest daughter of Chad Haynes, owner of 911 Restoration Central and North West Arkansas has become a certified technician at the age of 12.

Continuing a Legacy of Trust

If you’ve worked with us before, you likely know Chad Haynes. Chad has been in the construction industry for more than 20 years and has built his restoration businesses in Central and North West Arkansas on rapid response, genuine empathy, and technical excellence treating every home and business as if it were his own.

Now, that tradition continues into the next generation.

Growing up around the restoration business, Olivia witnessed firsthand how crucial fast, compassionate action is needed when a family faces a flooded basement, storm damage, or a burst pipe to avoid mold.

Olivia brings a fresh perspective, boundless energy, and an unwavering commitment to serving the NWA community from Springdale and Fayetteville to Bentonville and Rogers.

At 12 years old, she works hand-in-hand alongside our team of experienced, certified technicians as she continues to learn and represent the future of the 911 Restoration’s Central and North West Arkansas locations.

Starting at such a young age sets a fantastic example for Gen Z, showing what passion, hands-on learning, and hard work can accomplish early on.

WRT & ASD Certified Expertise

Being a young face of a restoration company takes much more than a friendly smile, it requires technical expertise.

Olivia has officially earned two of the most rigorous and respected certifications in the disaster recovery industry through the IICRC (Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification):

  • WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician): This certification validates her deep knowledge in water science, moisture mapping, psychrometrics (the science of drying), and the health hazards associated with water intrusion.
  • ASD (Applied Structural Drying): Building on WRT, this advanced hands-on qualification covers the complex physics of structural drying. It equips Olivia to dry building materials, hardwood, drywall, and commercial structures safely, efficiently, and thoroughly to prevent long-term mold growth.

“For me, restoration isn’t just about removing water, it’s about communicating clearly with business owners and homeowners during stressful times and giving them total peace of mind,” says Olivia.
