Fire Damage

Fire can cause the complete loss of your home or business and some or all of its contents, not to mention affect you and your family and employees emotionally. A small fire can also cause distress because smoke can pollute everything in your home. The water needed to extinguish the fire causes damage that can later result in mould, creating an even greater issue than the fire itself.

Smoke penetrates through your home, and the residue left can become corrosive. There are several steps required to ensure your home/office has been properly and safely restored.

Every situation is unique, and our team of professionals have the necessary skills required to rebuild and/or restore your building as quickly as possible using our high-tech equipment to recover your damaged belongings such as furniture, clothing and documents.

We are committed to helping you restore your home as quickly as possible to avoid any further disruption in your life. We can help you with all phases of home construction, remodelling, renovating and/or repairing.

Water Damage

Many local residents are sadly no strangers to the damage that can be caused by water and flooding, or how widespread those damages can be. Understanding the overall effects of water damage is essential in order to help restore your home or business. Many pollutants are spread by water and can easily be moved into areas that were not previously contaminated. It is also important to understand that contaminated drywall, carpet, and even furniture would need to be removed and completely replaced.

Commercial drying equipment, such as air movers and dehumidifiers, are used, and our service technicians are professionally trained to respond quickly to help prevent any additional damage from taking place.

Regardless of what caused the water damage, it does need to be dried out as quickly as possible to avoid more costly repairs that affect the building structure. Committed and professional in every manner, our goal is to help provide you with peace of mind so that you can return to your normal routine.

Wind Damage

Storm-related damages require quick professional storm damage repair services to get your home/building back to safety standards. Any disaster to your home or business disrupts your life, and our goal is to return you to your regular routine as quickly as possible. Whether we need to tend to fallen trees, damages from hail storms, excessive snow buildup on your roof, or a roof that has been torn apart or off, repairing the damages resulting from wind-related disasters can put a similar strain on you as other disasters, and we are committed to seeing you through, preventing further stress.
