Service Overview

How We Approach It

The crew that pulled out the wet drywall is the crew putting the new drywall in. The Xactimate scope from mitigation maps directly to the rebuild scope — no separate negotiation, no scope arguments three weeks later. One contract, one team, one walkthrough at the end.

What's Included

  • Drywall replacement + finish
  • Hardwood, LVP, tile, carpet flooring
  • Cabinetry + trim work
  • Paint + finish work
  • Insurance scope-aligned
  • Single-source contracting

What the Rebuild Typically Covers

  • Drywall replacement and finish — cut to the documented flood line during mitigation, replaced with matching board thickness, taped, mudded, sanded, primed. For older {{city}} homes with plaster walls, we coordinate plaster repair as a specialty trade.
  • Flooring — hardwood (sand and refinish where dryable, full replacement when needed), LVP / LVT, ceramic and porcelain tile, carpet and pad. We coordinate with material suppliers to source matches for older installations or discontinued patterns.
  • Cabinetry + trim — kitchen + bath cabinets when water reached the toe-kick line, baseboards, casing, crown. Salvageable cabinets get pulled, dried in the shop, and reinstalled where possible. Custom millwork gets coordinated with the original sub if reachable.
  • Paint and finish — primer + two coats matching the original color when documented; whole-wall repaint when partial-wall blends won't read clean. Specialty finishes (Venetian plaster, lime wash, decorative finishes) get specialty-trade coordination.
  • Specialty coordination — plaster repair on older homes, custom millwork matching, designer paint matching for premium-finish units. Sub-trades scoped through us, not handed off to the homeowner.

Why the Same Crew Should Handle Mitigation and Reconstruction

The most common pattern that hurts {{city}} insurance restoration clients is the hand-off problem. The mitigation contractor extracts water and runs drying equipment. Then the homeowner hires a separate general contractor for the rebuild. Three weeks of scope arguments later, the rebuild starts — except the GC's price doesn't match the mitigation scope, the carrier's adjuster has to re-evaluate, and items that should have been documented during demo are now invisible behind new drywall. That sequence turns 4-week projects into 3-month projects.

Our reconstruction is the back-end of the same job. The crew that pulled out the wet drywall in week one is the crew putting the new drywall in week three. The Xactimate scope from mitigation maps directly to the rebuild scope — no separate negotiation. Photos taken during demo (so we know what was behind every wall) inform the rebuild. Specialty trades (plaster matching, hardwood refinishing, custom millwork, tile setters) get coordinated by us, not bounced to the homeowner to find. One contract. One phone number. One walkthrough at the end.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't see your question, just call or message us.

Do you offer free estimates? +

For property losses (water, fire, storm, sewage), we provide a no-cost on-site assessment and an Xactimate scope of work. For non-emergency reconstruction or mold remediation we provide a written estimate after on-site evaluation. We do not give phone-quote prices for restoration work — accurate scoping requires seeing the loss in person.

What certifications do your technicians hold? +

Our crew holds IICRC certifications in Water Damage Restoration (WRT), Applied Structural Drying (ASD), and Applied Microbial Remediation (AMRT) per IICRC S500/S520 standards. Specific cert status of any technician on your job is available on request — we do not stretch certifications we do not actually hold.

How do you decide what materials to remove vs save? +

IICRC S500 has clear material removal criteria based on water category and how long the material was wet. Cat-1 water + reached within 24-48 hours = often save in place. Cat-3 water = porous materials always come out. Borderline cases get the moisture-meter test: substrate that returns to dry standard with equipment runtime gets saved; substrate that stalls above dry standard for 5+ days gets removed.

Can you work in occupied condo and apartment buildings? +

Yes — we have COIs ($2M general liability + workers comp, additional insured naming the building) on file for most major condo and apartment complexes in our service area. We work within building noise windows, use service elevators, and coordinate with building management on access protocols. For larger buildings we are pre-cleared for vendor approval so paperwork does not delay active-loss response.

What if I find more damage after the work is done? +

If hidden damage emerges after reconstruction completes — usually because moisture migrated through a path that was not visible during initial scoping — we re-engage at no additional charge for the warranty period (typically 1 year on workmanship). Beyond warranty, we re-evaluate as a new claim. The initial documentation we keep on file makes the second claim faster and clearer for the adjuster.

Do you handle commercial restoration? +

Yes, we handle small to mid-size commercial restoration in Bergen County — offices, retail, medical, light industrial. Commercial work has different operational tempo than residential (tenant operations come first, after-hours noise scheduling, larger COI requirements). We have separate residential and commercial tech rotations because the workflows differ.

Are your prices in line with what insurance pays? +

Yes — our scopes are written in Xactimate at carrier-standard pricing for the NJ market. We do not inflate scope to chase coverage and we do not cut corners to under-bid. The price reflects the work IICRC standards require for the loss type. Adjusters see our scopes regularly and approve them without back-and-forth because the line items match the documented conditions.
