A structure fire changes a Clio property in minutes, but the cleanup clock is even less forgiving. Our local crews are equipped to start stabilizing the site the same day you call.
Call +1-866-484-1409We opened in the Clio area because too many homeowners were getting a two-week wait for a "24/7" restoration company. Our trucks stage locally so that promise actually means something.
Because our crews work 36017 regularly, they already understand which Clio permitting steps apply to fire reconstruction and roughly how long inspections take before drywall can go back up.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Clio, AL fire claims get partially denied.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Clio properties that come through a fire loss with the least long-term damage are almost always the ones where someone called within the first few hours, not the first few days.
Board-up, tarping, and extraction dispatched the same day to stop a Clio loss from spreading further.

A verbal promise doesn't help you three weeks into a job, so our guarantee goes in writing before we start. If a section of the agreed scope isn't done to standard, we come back and correct it at no charge.
The number we quote after inspection is the number on the final invoice, barring written change orders you approve.
Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
You won't be bounced between five different subcontractors on this job.
A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial Clio inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
