Mitigation dries the structure. Reconstruction rebuilds it. After extraction and drying are complete, we perform the full structural rebuild — damaged framing, subfloor, wall assemblies, moisture barriers — with a fixed lump-sum price and a 5-year guarantee on all structural scope.
$350 credited in full toward reconstruction when you move forward.
Most homeowners don't know that water damage involves two entirely separate contractor scopes. Understanding the distinction protects you from rebuilding over wet framing — the single most common and costly post-water-event construction failure.
Water extraction, structural drying, dehumidification, air movement. Mitigation ends when the structure is certified dry by moisture meter readings. This is not reconstruction. No structural framing is replaced in this phase.
Written documentation of dry readings at all affected framing points. This document is required before reconstruction begins. Do not allow reconstruction to start without dry certification. Rebuilding over wet framing creates mold behind new finishes.
We begin here. Full structural rebuild — damaged framing replaced, subfloor restored, moisture barriers installed, wall assemblies rebuilt, finish work completed. Fixed lump-sum. 5-year guarantee. Insurance documentation produced.
Water damage affects multiple building systems concurrently. We assess and rebuild all of them in a single coordinated scope — not as sequential separate projects.
Water-saturated framing that was not fully dried — or that experienced prolonged exposure before mitigation — loses structural integrity and must be replaced, not dried in place.
Subfloor delamination from water saturation is one of the most frequently underestimated damage items. We probe and assess the full extent — not just the visible wet zone — before scoping replacement.
Wall cavities affected by water intrusion require full rebuild — insulation removal and replacement, vapor barrier re-installation, and drywall replacement after framing is confirmed dry and structurally sound.
Post-water-event reconstruction is the correct time to install or upgrade moisture barrier systems — they go in during the open-wall phase, before new finishes close everything in.
Insurance claims live and die on documentation quality. We build the factual record from the first hour on site — not reconstructed after the fact from memory or incomplete photos.
Once structural scope is complete, we coordinate or perform finish work — returning the space to pre-loss condition or better, with all materials documented for your insurance scope.
Reconstruction scoped from a mitigation report alone consistently underestimates actual damage. Hidden framing damage only fully reveals itself after drying. We diagnose after drying — not before — and we price from that assessment.
Before we schedule the post-mitigation diagnostic, confirm your mitigation contractor has issued written dry certification with moisture readings. Do not start reconstruction without this document.
We assess all water-affected areas after drying is complete. Full framing inspection, subfloor probing, wall cavity assessment, crawl space evaluation. We find what the mitigation report missed — and there is almost always something.
You receive a complete written damage assessment with photo documentation and a single fixed lump-sum reconstruction price covering all structural scope. Insurance-formatted. No ranges that expand after demo begins.
We rebuild in the correct sequence — framing and structural work first, moisture barriers installed during open-wall phase, then insulation, then sheathing and drywall, then finish work. Each phase documented before the next begins.
We produce a complete project documentation package — scope, materials, labor, before-and-after photos — formatted for your insurance adjuster. We provide this as a standard deliverable on every insurance-involved reconstruction project.
All structural reconstruction is guaranteed for 5 years. Same structural failure from our work within five years — we return and correct it at no charge. No paperwork. One call.
Post-water reconstruction fails for one reason: wet framing was enclosed before it was fully dry, or damaged framing was rebuilt over rather than replaced. Both failures produce mold, rot, and structural deterioration behind the new finishes — typically discovered at the next inspection, sale, or insurance claim.
Our reconstruction sequence does not allow either failure mode. Dry certification is required before we start. All damaged framing is replaced — not dried in place if structural integrity is compromised. Moisture barriers are installed during the open-wall phase — not skipped because they add cost. Structural scope is documented before close-in.
We guarantee the structural work for five years. Same structural failure from our reconstruction within five years — we come back, correct it, no charge. No paperwork. No runaround. One call.
5-Year Written Guarantee — All Water Damage ReconstructionWater damage reconstruction frequently uncovers or involves these adjacent scopes.
Once your structure is dry-certified, do not wait. Every day without reconstruction is a day with exposed framing, open cavities, and an incomplete insurance claim. Book the $350 post-mitigation diagnostic and get a fixed price to finish the job correctly.
