We don't just repair homes.
We make sure they're rebuilt correctly.
Major renovations, additions, custom kitchens and baths, and insurance reconstruction. More than forty years.
Two kinds of work.
Most of what we do is planned. Some of it starts with a phone call nobody wanted to make.
Insurance reconstruction
Storm, wind and hail, fire and water. We rebuild what the loss took.
See how we rebuildAn itemised estimate you can hold us to.
Level 3 Xactimate certified estimatorWe estimate in XactRemodel, the contractor version of the software most insurance carriers use to write claims. It carries localised pricing, labour rates, material costs, taxes, overhead and profit. You get the work priced line by line, not a number on the back of a card.

What if the rebuild costs more than the insurance estimate?
Level 3 Xactimate certified estimatorOur estimate will not always match your insurance company's.
That is normal. It has a name. A supplement.
We write ours in their software, so we can show what the rebuild requires.
“Do I have to use the contractor my insurance company recommended?”
No. You have the right to select your own restoration company.
It is one of the biggest misconceptions homeowners have after a loss.

Questions people ask us first.
Tap any question to open it.
Why is your estimate higher than my insurance company's?
It often is, and it does not mean anyone is being dishonest. A first inspection cannot see everything, and building code and manufacturer installation requirements are not always accounted for. We write our scope in Xactimate, the same platform your carrier uses, so any difference can be shown line by line.
What is a supplement?
It is the normal way additional items get added to a claim after the first estimate. We document what the rebuild requires and submit it in the format your carrier already works in.
Do I have to use the contractor my insurance company recommended?
No. You have the right to select your own restoration company. It is one of the biggest misconceptions homeowners have after a loss.
How soon can you begin?
We begin once the property is safe to enter and insurance approval is secured. Timely action reduces damage and speeds your return to normal life.
What don't you do?
We are not public adjusters, so we do not determine coverage or negotiate your claim. We are not a mitigation company, so we do not provide drying, mold remediation or environmental work. Our work is the reconstruction itself.
Do you offer a warranty?
We stand behind the work we do. We will go through exactly what is covered, and for how long, before the job starts.
