Fire & Water Restoration

Repair and rebuild after damage

Fire and water damage can compromise structure, finishes, and indoor air quality. We help restore your home by removing damaged materials, repairing affected areas, and rebuilding with attention to detail — so the final result looks right and holds up.

What restoration often includes

• Assessment of affected areas and scope planning
• Demolition and removal of damaged materials (as needed)
• Structural repairs and replacement of compromised components
• Drywall and finishing, paint, and exterior repair where applicable
• Coordination to keep the project moving with clear updates

Focused on durability and clean finish

Restoration work isn't just about patching — it's about rebuilding correctly. We match materials, align finishes, and ensure repairs integrate smoothly with existing construction.

How long does restoration take after a fire or flood?

It depends on how far the damage reached, but typical timelines in our experience look like this:

• Water damage, contained — drying takes 3–7 days; repairs to drywall, trim, flooring, and paint usually take another 1–3 weeks.
• Water damage, structural — when framing, subfloor, or exterior assemblies are affected, plan on 4–8 weeks including inspections.
• Fire damage, localized — a single room with smoke remediation typically rebuilds in 2–6 weeks.
• Fire damage, major — significant structural rebuilds run 3–6+ months, driven as much by insurance scope approval and permits as by construction itself.

The single biggest factor in the schedule is how quickly scope is agreed with your insurer. We prepare clear, itemized repair scopes that adjusters can approve without endless back-and-forth.

How much does fire or water damage repair cost?

Small, contained water repairs often land in the $2,000–$10,000 range. Larger water losses that involve structural drying and rebuilding multiple rooms commonly run $15,000–$50,000. Fire rebuilds range from $10,000 for a contained loss to well into six figures for structural damage. In most cases homeowners insurance covers the repair minus your deductible — which is why an accurate, well-documented scope matters more than a fast lowball number.

Will you work with my insurance company?

Yes. We document damage, provide itemized estimates in the format adjusters expect, and communicate directly with your adjuster when needed. You stay in control of decisions; we make sure the scope actually covers what it takes to rebuild correctly — including the parts of the damage that only become visible after demolition starts.

Can water-damaged stucco or siding be repaired without full replacement?

Often, yes. If moisture intrusion is caught early and the sheathing behind the cladding is sound, a targeted repair with corrected flashing solves the problem. If water has been getting in for years, sections of sheathing or framing may need replacement first. As stucco specialists, we can rebuild the exterior assembly correctly and match the existing finish — a combination most general restoration firms subcontract out.
