Reconstruction in Atlanta

Call (470) 287-3895 and we dispatch a crew right away.
What Reconstruction Involves in Atlanta Homes
Rebuilding after a tree strike
A fallen tree can crack rafters, break ridge lines and open the roof to rain. Temporary protection comes first, then the roof deck, framing and interior finishes are rebuilt, and the City of Atlanta Office of Buildings reviews permits and inspections for storm repairs.
Rebuilding after water and sewage losses
Once wet drywall, insulation and flooring come out, they have to be replaced. The structure is dried and verified before closing walls, and sewage-affected materials are discarded rather than saved.
Regulated materials found during demolition
Opening walls and ceilings can expose material that needs testing before work continues. Georgia EPD requires notification before demolition and before renovation involving friable asbestos above its thresholds, so we test first and plan accordingly.
How We Handle Reconstruction in Atlanta
- You call (470) 287-3895 and we assess the damage and any temporary protection needed.
- We confirm the scope with you and your adjuster and check whether permits, inspections or asbestos testing apply.

When You Need Reconstruction, and What To Do First
- A tree or limb through a roof
- Sagging ceilings or soft floors after a leak
- Fire or smoke damage that reached framing
- Wet insulation and drywall that cannot be dried
- Cracked plaster or loose trim after a storm
- A mitigation job that is dried but not yet rebuilt
Photograph the damage, including any fallen tree, before it is moved, and keep damaged materials until your adjuster has seen them. Cover openings, then call (470) 287-3895 so we can protect the structure and plan the rebuild.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
A kitchen or bath after a pipe failure may take a few weeks. A tree strike that reaches framing and the roof deck takes longer, mostly because of permits, inspections and material lead times.
We confirm contractor licensing requirements and local permit steps at the start, and we schedule inspections as the work reaches each stage.
If testing finds regulated materials, those are handled before reconstruction continues, and the schedule shifts to match.

- Roofs and roof decks
- Framing and rafters
- Drywall, plaster and paint

Insurance and Documentation for Reconstruction
We coordinate with your adjuster through Direct Insurance Coordination, sharing scopes, photos and moisture documentation. Your policy decides what is covered and in what order the work is paid, so keep the adjuster's estimate beside ours and ask about any difference before work begins.
