Our commercial restoration expertise covers everything from large-scale water and fire restoration to addressing a variety of issues, including tree strikes, sewage backups, and vehicle impacts.

Commercial Fire Damage Restoration
Fire restoration is at the core of our work. Our estimators, equipped with decades of experience, know exactly what to look for when assessing a property affected by fire damage. Often, this damage is hidden or not immediately obvious, requiring a keen eye to uncover.
We work collaboratively as a team to develop a comprehensive understanding of the full scope of work in the face of complex fire losses. For structural damage, we partner with engineers who specialize in the insurance restoration industry. Our long-standing relationships allow us to expedite plans while collaboratively addressing code upgrades, construction feasibility, and permitting challenges.
We produce a detailed scope of work that outlines a clear plan, addressing all damages sustained, including physical damage and smoke odor. By investing this time upfront, we set both our clients and production teams up for success.

Commercial Water Damage Restoration
Beyond the visible damage caused by a water loss, we also assess other components of your property that may have unseen damage. By identifying these issues upfront, we provide you and your insurance company with a comprehensive view of the entire project, helping to save time during the reconstruction process.

Tree Strikes & Storm Damage Restoration
Major tree falls on buildings can often cause damages extending beyond the initial impact point. Based on our depth of knowledge from decades of experience with these loss types, we go through a process of identifying the full extent of damage and then work closely with our structural engineers to ensure your property is rebuilt the right way.

Vehicular Damage Restoration
Vehicular damage claims are often localized but involve many trades, along with engineering and permitting. Our knowledge of this process helps expedite your repairs by addressing these complexities upfront, ensuring a faster resolution.
Why Work With Us For Commercial Restoration?
We Understand The Real Estate Business
Our approach to commercial and multi-family extends beyond the actual construction, and we understand the coordination required between the different stakeholders involved in a project. From the property manager to onsite teams, owner’s reps, family-run real estate portfolios, and large capital groups. Establishing clear expectations upfront and maintaining timeframes is imperative when dealing with multi-tenant apartment losses or commercial spaces. Giving our clients the proper information to manage their tenant’s and investor’s expectations is a responsibility we take on with every project.
Project Complexity and Logistics
Major loss events to multi-family and commercial properties often involve creative solutions to challenging circumstances. Most properties do not have large parking lots that allow for proper staging, stocking, and even parking. A large part of our initial assessment and scope development involves the logistical side of the project from start to finish, working through every trade and identifying potential challenges that need to be properly documented with all parties involved to ensure a smooth reconstruction process.
Deep Knowledge of The Claims Process
We work with your adjuster to agree on a scope of work and ultimately reach an agreed cost of repairs. We accomplish this by providing a detailed scope of work, supporting documentation, and a clear plan for the project. Large loss claims often have many moving parts beyond the actual construction. We mitigate these other factors by identifying key critical path items that will move the claim forward and allow the construction to start. Our collaborative and transparent approach to insurance claims allows your restoration project to move forward and avoid unnecessary delays.
Reputation of Excellence

Our Process
Our Commercial Restoration Process
1. Consultation
We first perform an initial assessment of the damage to your property and gather information so we can formulate a plan of action. Our clients often hire us prior to the estimate being generated as there can be significant downtime if the administrative work is not started right away.
2. Scope & Timeline Discussion
Next, we develop the scope of work, discuss our approach to working with the insurance adjuster, and provide a full project overview. One of our core principles is managing expectations, so rest assured we will provide you with a realistic timeframe for the project.
3. Insurance Claim Management
We have extensive experience in reaching agreements on scopes of work and cost with insurance companies based on our decades of working alongside large loss adjusters and consultants. We bring a technical approach to our estimating and documentation to ensure the adjuster has a clear picture of the damages.
4. Project Management
Your Estimator/Project Manager works closely with the Project Superintendent, who will oversee every aspect of the construction process. Our Production Manager works closely with both your Superintendent and Estimator to ensure we are always looking far ahead of the project while allowing the superintendent to focus on the onsite details. The biggest factor in a successful project comes down to communication, both with our client and our entire team. By focusing on great communication, our clients can return to running their business and have peace of mind their property is in good hands.
5. Project Completion
Once we complete the project, we provide our clients with a standard construction warranty and are available down the road should questions come up. We maintain relationships with several past clients and provide free consultation on routine maintenance, vendor referrals, and anything else they may need.
