Fire Damage

When a fire occurs, it can be an overwhelming and stressful experience due to the many parties involved in the recovery process. At TFH Construction, we act as your trusted mediator, coordinating with all involved parties to simplify the restoration journey. Fires often leave behind extensive damage, not only from the flames but also from the smoke, soot, and water used to extinguish the fire. Soot and smoke can penetrate walls, flooring, and air systems, compromising the structural integrity of your home and indoor air quality. Additionally, water from firefighting efforts can cause further damage if not addressed promptly. With over 40 years of experience in fire damage restoration, our team has the expertise to manage every aspect of the recovery process. Our primary goal is to restore your home efficiently and effectively, ensuring you can return to a safe, comfortable living space as quickly as possible.

Water Damage

When you experience water damage, immediate action is essential to prevent further harm. At TFH Construction, our team is available 24/7 to respond quickly and begin the mitigation process. Water damage poses two primary threats if not addressed promptly. First, the affected areas can worsen over time as water seeps deeper into structural materials, weakening them and increasing the scope of the damage. Second, untreated moisture creates the perfect environment for mold growth, which can spread rapidly and cause costly, long-term issues. Our experienced team uses advanced techniques and equipment to extract standing water, thoroughly dry affected areas, and prevent mold and mildew from forming. Whether the damage is caused by a burst pipe, a faulty appliance, or heavy rain, we are here to provide comprehensive solutions. Our goal is to restore your property to a safe, dry condition while minimizing disruption and delivering lasting results.

Comprehensive Damage Evaluation

At TFH Construction, our process begins with a thorough inspection to evaluate the extent of structural and content damage caused by fire, water, or smoke. Our experienced team carefully assesses all affected areas to provide a detailed and accurate damage report. This evaluation is critical for determining the necessary repairs and establishing a comprehensive restoration plan. We can determine the cause of the damage, whether it was the result of a storm, a burst pipe, or faulty wiring. We also identify hidden damage that may not be immediately visible, ensuring that all aspects of the loss are addressed. Our goal is to provide property owners and their insurance companies with a clear understanding of the scope of work required for complete restoration. By conducting a comprehensive damage evaluation, we can expedite the claims process and begin the repair work as quickly as possible, restoring your property to its pre-loss condition.

1. Begin with Your Insurance Agent

The first step after experiencing property damage is to contact your insurance agent to initiate the claims process. It is often helpful to call or email your agent directly. In emergency situations or outside business hours, you can contact your insurance provider through their 24/7 claims hotline. Your agent will typically guide you through the initial steps and, in some cases, may submit a claim on your behalf. Once the claim is filed, you will receive a claim number, and an adjuster will be assigned to your case. The adjuster will usually schedule a visit to inspect the damage firsthand and begin the evaluation process. Working closely with your insurance agent from the beginning helps to streamline the claims process, ensuring that your property restoration begins promptly and proceeds smoothly.

2. Address Emergency Response

When property damage occurs, immediate action is often required to protect your home or business from further harm. If your property has broken windows, roof damage, standing water, or sewage backup, TFH Construction’s emergency response team is ready to assist. Our rapid response minimizes the impact of the disaster, prevents additional damage, and secures your property. We provide emergency board-up services, water extraction, and temporary structural support as needed. Acting quickly can make a significant difference in the extent of the damage and the cost of repairs. Our team is trained to handle urgent situations with professionalism and care, ensuring your property is protected while we work with your insurance company to expedite the restoration process.

3. Review Your Policy

Understanding your insurance policy is essential when filing a claim for property damage. It is the property owner’s responsibility to prevent further damage after a loss occurs. Reviewing your policy helps you understand your coverage, responsibilities, and the process for submitting claims. Keep track of all additional living expenses if your property is uninhabitable, such as temporary housing and food costs, as these may be eligible for reimbursement. Promptly filing your claim and following your insurer’s guidelines ensures a smoother process and faster approval for repairs. TFH Construction works closely with you and your insurance provider to ensure all aspects of your policy are addressed. We are here to help you navigate the claims process and answer any questions you may have, providing peace of mind during a challenging time.

4. Our Team

Our experienced and certified team at TFH Construction is dedicated to providing top-quality service throughout the restoration process. We begin with a thorough inspection and prepare a detailed estimate for your insurance company. Once the estimate is approved, we become the primary point of contact between you and your insurer, facilitating clear communication and ensuring that the project moves forward without delays. Our team is committed to delivering exceptional customer service, keeping you informed at every stage of the repair process. We understand the importance of restoring your property quickly and effectively, and we work tirelessly to ensure that all repairs are covered by your insurance company. Our goal is to make the restoration process as smooth and stress-free as possible for every client.

5. Work is Complete—What Now?

As the restoration project is nearing completion, you may have questions about the billing process. At this stage, TFH Construction submits the final scope of repairs to your insurance company, which allows them to release the remaining funds. Most insurance companies issue the payment directly to you, and you are then responsible for making the final payment to us upon project completion. In most cases, your deductible will need to be paid before work begins. If your mortgage lender is listed on your insurance check, additional steps may be required for endorsement and release of funds. We understand these processes and are here to guide you every step of the way. Our goal is to make the transition from restoration to normalcy as smooth as possible, giving you peace of mind that your home or business is fully restored.
