Who We Are

Meet The Team Handling Fire Damage Removal Across San Rafael

We opened in the San Rafael 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 87020 87051 regularly, they already understand which San Rafael permitting steps apply to fire reconstruction and roughly how long inspections take before drywall can go back up.

We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every San Rafael scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

Licensed & Insured

Full coverage on every job we run in San Rafael, NM.

Live Dispatch

A real technician answers the San Rafael line, any hour.

III

IICRC Trained

Certified technicians who've handled structural fire losses before.

Adjuster-Ready Files

We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.

Every San Rafael job gets logged with dated photos at each stage, which has saved more than one homeowner an argument with their insurer over what was already damaged versus what happened during repairs.

Don't Wait On These

What Gets Worse By The Hour After A San Rafael Fire

Smoke Odor That Won't Fade

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.

Soot Around Vents

Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.

Swelling Floors Or Cabinets

Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

Pitting On Metal Hardware

Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.

Ongoing Respiratory Irritation

Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.

A Claim Filing Deadline

San Rafael, NM insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.

None of these six signs get better with time. The San Rafael 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.

Core Services

The Full Fire Damage Removal Scope We Run In San Rafael, Start To Finish

Emergency Mitigation

First priority is always stopping additional loss: boarding openings, tarping the roof, and pulling standing water.

Residential Soot & Smoke Cleanup

We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.

Commercial Restoration

We plan around your operating hours wherever the damage allows partial reopening during the rebuild.

Structural Rebuild

Framing, drywall, and finish carpentry brought back to pre-loss condition and signed off by local San Rafael inspectors.

Odor Elimination

Persistent odor after a San Rafael fire usually needs equipment-based treatment, which is what this service actually is.

Contents & Pack-Out

We photograph and log every item before pack-out, then clean or store it depending on what's actually salvageable.
