How to Repair & Rebuild After Fire Damage
The final stage in the fire damage restoration process involves repairing and rebuilding aspects of the structure that have been impacted by the fire. Depending on the severity of the fire event, it may be necessary to reconstruct an entire room or area of the building. The fire damage repair process could also include common repairs such as painting, replacing drywall and installing new carpet.

We have experience working with any type of insurance company to provide all the documentation and scope of work, so you are able to begin the fire repair and build back process without delay. This ensures that you can safely return to your business or home as soon as possible.
How the Fire Repair and Rebuild Process Works
Once water, smoke and soot damage are properly mitigated, and the building and its contents have been cleaned, it’s time to repair and rebuild the structure. Some of the common repairs that may be required include the following.
Dry Wall
As a porous surface, it’s easy for smoke and water to infiltrate drywall, leading to water damage, discoloration and bad odors. Our technicians will replace drywall wherever is necessary.
Painting
After drywall has been replaced and walls have been thoroughly cleaned, our restoration technicians will paint wherever is needed.
Floors
Depending on the nature of the fire event, it may be necessary to replace some of your flooring. Damaged carpet may also need replacing. Dry Kings will repair flooring and install new carpeting.
Plumbing
While copper pipes tend to be resilient during a fire, pipes made of PVC, PEX and ABS are prone to heat damage. Our technicians will repair any plumbing and ducts that have been damaged.
Electrical
After a fire has occurred, your structure may need electrical repairs, such as a new breaker box or wiring. Our technicians will replace damaged wiring, outlets and fixtures wherever needed.
Build-Back
Whether it’s a small part of the structure or an entire area that has been damaged, our team of contractors will expertly build it back. This may involve building new walls or even an entirely new room.
