Fire Damage Restoration in Matthews

The ranch-style and split-level homes built in Matthews during the 1960s and 1970s are the backbone of the town's housing stock. These homes share common characteristics that affect both fire risk and restoration approach: original electrical panels that may be at or beyond capacity, forced-air heating systems with aging ductwork, crawl space foundations that complicate water extraction after fire suppression, and hardwood floors laid over plywood subfloors that warp when exposed to water. Our restoration teams are experienced with all of these conditions and perform crawl space drying, subfloor assessment, and hardwood floor restoration as part of our standard Matthews residential workflow.

Historic downtown Matthews, centered on North Trade Street and the Matthews Community Farmers Market area, includes older commercial buildings, some dating to the early twentieth century, that are now occupied by restaurants, retail shops, and professional offices. These structures have been renovated over the decades but may retain original framing, roofing, and electrical systems beneath updated finishes. A fire in one of these buildings can expose layers of construction history, each requiring a different restoration approach. We perform careful deconstruction to assess the full extent of damage, identify the oldest and most vulnerable structural elements, and rebuild to meet current code while respecting the building's commercial heritage.

Matthews families displaced by fire need more than construction services. They need someone who will communicate clearly, handle the insurance process, and get them back home as fast as possible. We assign a dedicated project manager to every Matthews residential restoration who serves as the single point of contact for the homeowner, their insurance adjuster, and every subcontractor on the job. Our project managers provide weekly progress updates, manage the contents pack-out and storage process, and coordinate move-back scheduling so families are never left guessing.
