Most of our New Hope business comes from referrals, not advertising — the kind of trust that only builds after a company handles someone's worst week correctly.
Every technician who walks into a New Hope job holds an active IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — not a general contractor license stretched to cover something it wasn't meant for.
Local familiarity with 55427 55428 means we're not guessing at New Hope code requirements — we've filed the paperwork here dozens of times before.
Insurance adjusters trust our New Hope documentation because it's consistent every time: photos, moisture readings, and a signed scope on file.
We also don't subcontract the technical work out to whoever's available that week — the New Hope crew you meet at inspection is usually the same crew handling mitigation and, in most cases, the reconstruction.
Bonded and licensed to work throughout New Hope, MN.
A live person answers the New Hope line at any hour.
Fire and smoke restoration training, not general labor.

Odor that hasn't faded after 24 hours usually means particles have settled into porous materials.
Residue collecting near vents signals the whole duct system needs attention, not just the burn area.
Cabinetry and flooring can warp within a day if extraction doesn't start right away.
Smoke residue is acidic enough to pit metal fixtures within about 48 hours if left untreated.
Persistent headaches or coughing after a fire usually means airborne residue is still present.
New Hope, MN policies typically expect documented mitigation within a set window, or the claim can get disputed.
Every one of these problems compounds the longer they sit — soot gets more corrosive, odor works deeper into materials, and documenting the original damage for insurance gets harder.

Change orders need your written sign-off before anything gets added.
Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year.
One coordinator runs your New Hope job start to finish.
