Our Process

  1. 1

    Initial Assessment

    Upon arrival, our team conducts a thorough structural assessment to identify the extent of fire and smoke damage. This evaluation includes identifying HVAC system contamination and immediate safety risks.

  2. 2

    Emergency Mitigation

    Our crew implements emergency tarping and board-up services to secure the property. This step prevents further exposure to the elements and enhances safety during restoration processes.
