A NOTE FROM MARK:

I truly wish there were some magical words or profound statement that I could share with you and your family to remove, or at the least ease the pain, this fire loss has created to your home but most importantly your lives. After three decades as a fire restoration contractor, providing help and assistance to literarily thousands of people where you are today, I unfortunately possess no such wisdom.

 

My best advice and recommendation are the following: “Partner you and your family with a local experienced fire restoration contractor that will work with and for you and your family, serving & representing your best interests”.

 

You need straight answers, advice, and direction, which can only be provided by an experienced company that specializes in the reconstruction and restoration of fire damaged homes and properties. Most importantly you need someone to represent you and your family and your best interests in deciding the best direction for you and your family to proceed! You do not need do you need a company that chases fire trucks of does insurance restoration as an add-on to their remodeling business.

 

Partnering with the right contractor with the expertise to negotiate and work with your insurance company, understanding the coverages of your insurance policy, your mortgage companies role, the permitting and inspections related to a fire damaged home, and the experience to rebuild/restore your home to pre-loss/good industry standards & code compliancy is the only way to protect your best interests and to assure your home gets rebuilt properly.
