Remediation Services

Three kinds of damage, one team that handles all of them

Each service ends the same way: with the space repaired, finished and ready to use again.

Water Damage Repair

Burst supply lines, water heater failures, roof leaks and stacked-unit leaks. We dry the structure and rebuild the drywall, trim and flooring.

Most Common Call

Water damage repair

Mold Remediation

We find the moisture source, remove what's damaged, and rebuild so the same unit doesn't come back on your work-order list.

Fix the Cause

Mold remediation

Fire & Smoke Damage

Soot, smoke odor, water from firefighting, and the tear-out and rebuild that gets units back on the rent roll.

How It Works

From first call to a rentable unit

01

Respond and stabilize

Stop the water, secure the space, and protect the units and contents that aren't damaged yet.

02

Document and scope

Photos and a clear scope of every affected unit or room, so owners and adjusters see the same thing you do.

03

Remediate

Remove damaged materials, dry, clean, disinfect or deodorize, depending on what happened.

04

Rebuild and hand back

Drywall, insulation, paint, trim and flooring, then a final walk so the space goes back into service.

Fire & Smoke

Fire damage is a rebuild job

After the fire department leaves, you're left with soot, smoke odor and water damage, often in more than one unit. We handle the cleanup, the tear-out and the rebuild.
