The Emergency Disaster Restoration Process
When you call us for emergency disaster restoration, here’s what you can expect:
Step 1: Emergency Response
We dispatch a certified restoration crew around the clock. Our team arrives quickly to assess the damage, identify safety hazards, and stabilize your property immediately.
Step 2: Property Securing
We secure your property with emergency board-up and roof tarping to prevent further damage from weather, vandalism, and theft.

We inspect the full extent of the damage using professional moisture meters, thermal imaging, and other diagnostic tools. We document everything thoroughly for your insurance claim and FEMA requirements.

We remove damaged materials, debris, and contaminated items from your property to prepare for restoration.
Step 6: Cleaning & Sanitization
We clean all affected surfaces, remove soot and smoke residue, and apply EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold growth.
