FAQs

We offer services to address all types of weather-related property damage events such as floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, winter weather and other severe storms. We’ll effectively handle restoration projects regardless of the extent of the damage.

Our restoration process involves mitigating any damage that could continue to harm your property, clean up and controlled removal of existing damage, and reconstruction of the property to its pre-loss condition.

The timeline for restoration after severe weather damage varies and it depends on factors such as the extent of the damage, size of the property, weather conditions, availability of resources, local permits and regulations, and insurance and funding. We provide estimates based on these factors.

We rely on tools, equipment, cutting edge technology, and proven restoration techniques to deliver the best results for our clients. We typically utilize industrial grade dehumidifiers, air movers, moisture meters and a wide range of other equipment to mitigate, clean and remove damaged materials, and rebuild properties after a storm.

Ensuring safety is our top priority when restoring areas affected by weather. We adhere to safety protocols and wear the necessary protective equipment throughout the restoration process. The precautions we take are to guarantee that the property is safe for entry and that any hazardous substances are eliminated.
