What Sets Our Home Restoration Services Apart
- Insurance Claim Supplementing - We document every aspect of catastrophic damage and work directly with your insurance company to supplement initial payouts. Our detailed assessments often reveal undervalued damage, ensuring you receive full compensation for proper reconstruction.
- Design/Build Advantage - Our single-source design/build model means one team manages everything—from navigating your insurance claim through architectural design to final construction. No juggling subcontractors or coordinating multiple firms during an already stressful time.
- Luxury Rebuild Standards - We reconstruct homes to the same standards as our custom builds—often exceeding the quality and functionality of what was lost. Your rebuilt home becomes the foundation for your family's next chapter.
- Policyholder Advocacy - Insurance companies have adjusters protecting their interests. You deserve an expert protecting yours. We guide you through complex claim documentation, supplemental requests, and the entire reconstruction process.
Catastrophic Loss Services We Offer
Fire Damage Restoration
When fire destroys your home, the insurance claim becomes as complex as the reconstruction itself. We document the complete scope of damage, supplement initial insurance assessments, and manage full reconstruction from foundation to final walkthrough.
Storm Damage Restoration
Catastrophic storm damage or structural failure can render homes uninhabitable and trigger total loss claims. We assess the full extent of damage (including hidden structural compromise) and execute complete rebuilds that exceed previous construction quality.
Water Damage Restoration
If flooding, major pipe failures, or water intrusion cause extensive structural damage, the reconstruction scope extends far beyond simple repairs. We document all affected systems and structural elements and deliver comprehensive reconstruction.
Multi-System Catastrophic Damage
Some disasters affect multiple home systems simultaneously. Complex total-loss situations require sophisticated claim documentation and coordinated reconstruction, which we manage through our design/build process.
What To Expect
Claim Assessment & Documentation
We conduct a comprehensive damage assessment that goes beyond initial insurance estimates. Our detailed documentation captures the full scope of reconstruction requirements, providing the foundation for supplementing your insurance payout to reflect true rebuilding costs
Insurance Advocacy & Supplementing
Working directly with your insurance company, we present documented evidence of all damage and required reconstruction work. Our 40 years of experience help policyholders receive the maximum compensation they're entitled to.
