Water Damage Mitigation
Our IICRC-certified technicians provide rapid water extraction and drying solutions for residential and commercial properties. Using advanced moisture detection equipment, we identify hidden water pockets to prevent secondary damage. The process includes structural drying, content cleaning, and mold prevention measures to restore properties to pre-loss conditions.
Mold Remediation
NYS-certified mold specialists handle complete remediation from inspection to final clearance testing. Our process follows strict containment protocols, HEPA vacuuming, and antimicrobial treatments. We address moisture sources to prevent recurrence while maintaining compliance with state regulations for commercial and residential properties.
Fire Damage Restoration
Comprehensive fire damage services include soot removal, odor elimination, and structural repairs. Our team uses thermal fogging and ozone treatments to neutralize smoke odors. We document damage for insurance claims and restore properties through content cleaning, deodorization, and reconstruction services.
Boardup Services
24/7 boardup services protect properties from weather exposure and unauthorized access after disasters. Our technicians install secure plywood barriers on windows, doors, and damaged structural openings. This service prevents further damage during the restoration process while maintaining property safety.
Packout Storage
We professionally pack, transport, and store damaged belongings in climate-controlled facilities. Items undergo cleaning, deodorization, and inventory documentation before safe return. This service protects valuables during extensive restoration work while maintaining chain-of-custody records for insurance purposes.
