Local knowledge

Why Sanford homes see what they see.

Sanford runs from the historic downtown and the Lake Monroe waterfront to newer subdivisions on the south side. The old wood-frame homes near downtown and the low-lying blocks by the lake see water intrusion that newer construction does not, and the historic building stock needs a careful hand.

The insurance question

Worried insurance will not cover it? That is the part we handle.

Most companies open your house up first and hand you a bill if the claim gets denied. We do it backwards on purpose. One licensed company cleans up, rebuilds, and deals with the adjuster for you.

“Being this careful has cost us work. I am fine with that.”

UsuallyHow it usually goes

  • The crew starts tearing out walls the day they arrive.
  • A lien goes on your house from day one.
  • The claim gets filed after your home is already torn open.
  • If the insurer denies it, you are left with the damage and the bill.

With usHow we do it

  • Nothing comes out until we know who is paying for it.
  • You get the cash price up front, before the claim.
  • We lay out every outcome, including if insurance pays nothing.
  • We run the claim end to end, and only start once you are covered.

Local questions

Restoration in Sanford, answered.

Yes. Older wood-frame homes need a careful approach to water and mold, and we treat them accordingly rather than tearing out more than we have to.

Low elevation near the lake means storm water and flooding are a bigger risk there than in the higher subdivisions. We see both.

Talk to the owner, not a call center.

Water or fire emergency, or a musty smell you cannot place. Either way, the person who answers is the person who does the work.
