Reconstruction & Restoration Process
Once evidence of the disaster has been eliminated, HRS can begin the reconstruction and restoration process in your home or business. First, we assess the damage and note any areas where the walls, floors, or ceilings have been affected.
If water, fire, or mold has eaten away at these surfaces, they will need to be reinforced, replaced, or reconstructed. Next, we close off the affected area from the rest of the structure so that any smoke, hazardous chemicals, or mold doesn’t spread and make the problem a structure-wide disaster.
Then we eliminate all debris and move the structure’s contents outside to assess whether they can be salvaged by cleaning. Next, we evaluate the structural safety and determine whether the condition of walls, floors, ceilings, and roof warrant repairs or replacement. Finally, we make necessary repairs and replacements, clean the construction mess, and move salvageable items back into the home / business.
Assessment of Damage
Before we can begin, we must understand all of the risks and damage involved by thoroughly inspecting your home or business to find the damage that is visible, and what may be hidden to the naked eye. Using moisture control sensors, and specially formulated tools, we can detect mold and water underneath floors, and behind walls. We scour your entire home or office from the highest roof shingle, to the smallest of cracks in the foundation.
Partition the Affected Area
Mold, smoke, and other airborne pathogens can easily be carried to other areas of your home or business. Our professional reconstruction and restoration crew partitions off the affected areas to ensure that any risky or toxic substances are confined to one area where they can be quickly and efficiently addressed. We seal off the area and use PPE to ensure that dangerous substances are not redistributed to other areas of your home or business.
Eliminate Debris and Move Contaminated Items Outside
Before HRS Restoration Services can begin making repairs, we remove all damaged items, trash, and debris from your home or business. Depending on the type of materials, we follow local guidelines and regulations for disposal. Some items, such as cloth or leather furniture may be affected but salvageable, so these items will be cleaned separately and moved back in at a later step in the process.
Evaluate Structural Safety of Walls, Floors, Ceiling, and Roof
Our expert team includes licensed contractors with a full understanding of building best practices. They evaluate the structural integrity of beams, columns, floors, walls, and roofs.
Make Necessary Repairs and Replacements, Final Cleaning and Move Salvageable Items Back In
Once the structure has been evaluated, any necessary repairs will reinforce these structures, and if replacement is the only option, we can do that too. We then proceed to clean, deodorize, and sanitize the property before moving any salvageable items back into your home or business.

Reconstruction & Restoration FAQs
Your safety and comfort in your home, or your ability to run your business, is as important to you as it is to us. Home and business owners want to understand what is involved in the reconstruction and restoration process, how long it will take to complete, and how much they can expect to pay. Full transparency is crucial and we answer these FAQs in more detail below.
What Does Reconstruction & Restoration Entail?
Reconstruction and restoration includes all necessary repairs, cleaning, replacement and reconstruction, to remove evidence of floods, fire, or any other kind of disaster – natural or man made.
We are not just concerned with the walls, floors, and ceilings, we also offer contents restoration services to bring your home or business furniture back to the way it was pre-disaster.
Reconstruction and restoration includes observation and assessment of the situation, cleaning and removal of all traces of the disaster, and expert construction services to repair or replace any affected structures and furnishings.
How Long Does Reconstruction & Restoration Take?
The time to complete reconstruction and restoration will vary depending on the type of disaster affecting your home or business, the amount of damage sustained, the number of employee hours involved to assess, remove, repair or replace items and structures, and to perform a final clean out.
Other factors that may play a role include working with your insurance company to determine whether they will cover any of these steps.
Besides insurance companies, the time involved may increase if, as in cases of hoarding or biohazards, we need to work with law enforcement or local authorities for permitting and waste disposal. HRS is committed to helping you through the process every step of the way, that is why we are your one-stop-shop for reconstruction services in Denver.
How Much Does Reconstruction & Restoration Cost?
The cause of the disaster will affect whether insurance or you, the policyholder, will pick up the tab. If the cause is weather related, your insurance company may cover the cost to repair the damage. If the disaster is the result of poor maintenance or neglect, such as a hoarding situation, you may bear the brunt of the cost yourself.
Other factors that affect the cost will be the cost of materials and the number of employee hours needed to complete. The more extensive the damage, the higher the cost will be. On the other hand, if you experienced only minor water damage in your basement, your costs will be relatively low compared to a full house fire.

HRS Restoration Services – Denver
When disaster strikes, HRS’s 24 hour restoration services are here for your emergency cleaning and professional restoration needs. In addition to water extraction and water damage restoration, HRS offers the following emergency restoration services:
Water Extraction & Water Damage Restoration
Discovering water damage in your home or business—whether from a flood, a dishwasher malfunction, or a sewer backup—can feel devastating. And it can be a serious problem if not dealt with properly. In addition to causing damage, water can also spread contaminants that may lead to disease. A quick response to water intrusion is imperative due to the invasive properties of moisture:
- Within minutes, moisture-sensitive surfaces swell and disfigure. Paper goods (books, documents, pictures) can be ruined and stains from furniture start to appear on carpeting, which can be permanent.
- Within hours, drywall softens and warps, and wooden furniture can be permanently damaged. If carpet becomes delaminated (the primary backing separates from the secondary backing), it can cause irreparable damage.
- Within days, fungi and bacteria begin to grow and spread. Foul odors start to permeate your property.
HRS’s IICRC certified clean-up crews are composed of expert technicians—including Master Water Restorers—who will ensure you receive the highest quality water removal and water clean-up services. Once the cause of the water emergency is mitigated and clean-up has been completed, our construction team can provide the building services you need—such as drywall, painting, flooring, electrical, and plumbing—to return your home or business to its original state.
Our local water restoration specialists are standing by 24/7/365 to help you through your water emergency!
Fire Damage & Restoration
A fire can be the most traumatic and devastating experience a home or business owner ever faces. In a best case scenario, it can cause minor smoke damage; in a worst case scenario, it can obliterate an entire structure. HRS will help you navigate these stressful circumstances and bring your property back to a safely inhabitable state.
The fire damage restoration professionals at HRS are available 24 hours a day! By carefully following our proven procedures, we ensure your property is brought back to the safe, comfortable space that existed before the fire damage and smoke damage. This begins with a property inspection to assess the level of structural damage and content damage. We will report our findings to you and answer any questions you may have so you are fully informed and understand what results can be reasonably expected.
In simple terms, returning your home or business to its pre-fire state consists of three general elements: structural damage restoration, content restoration and/or removal, smoke mitigation, and odor mitigation. Making sure your property is structurally sound is a priority. If there are stability issues, our professional restoration team can provide full construction services to rectify the situation. We will also remove any of your belongings that have been burned beyond repair, including items containing synthetic materials. Any items that are salvageable will be repaired and returned both to minimize cost to the home or business owner as well as to help lessen the anxiety of loss; unsafe items will be disposed of. Finally, our disaster clean-up team will remove all smoke residue, including the pervasive odor. Our IICRC certified Odor Control Technicians will use odor removal techniques include thermal fogging, high-level ozone deodorization, and hydroxyl deodorization.
Mold Inspection, Testing, & Remediation
No homeowner or business owner wants to hear that they have mold. Mold spreads quickly and can cause severe respiratory problems, especially in infants, children, the elderly, and those with health issues. Depending on the extent of the mold, a property can even be declared uninhabitable due to the threat it poses to the health of the occupants.
Mold occurs in damp areas and is often caused by water damage or flooding. Mold can also be the result of a current water leak or improper water leak clean-up from a previous issue. Mold can be present in carpet, wall interiors, floorboards, and ceilings, as well as easily spotted locations. HRS’s experts will determine the source of the mold, remove all traces of the mold, and repair or replace the damaged structures, ensuring the issue that caused the mold is remediated.
Due to the possible toxicity of the mold in your home or business, it’s important to have mold removal services handled by professionals. Our mold remediation specialists are IICRC certified in Applied Microbial Remediation, ensuring all aspects of the mold abatement are handled safely.
Trauma/Bio
Trauma clean-up and bio-cleaning is not a subject people give much thought to until they need the service. When dealing with a crime scene at your home or business, or with the aftermath of a fatality, the emotional toll can be overwhelming. HRS professionals can help ease the burden of the situation by eliminating all trace of the death or incident. This includes removing unsafe items and substances such as blood, other bodily fluids, and filth, all of which can contain biological hazards. Sanitizing a trauma situation involves eradicating microscopic particulates such as bacteria and viruses to ensure a clean and healthy space. HRS Disaster Restoration follows IIRC s540 standards, providing the highest industry standard of trauma and crime scene clean-up. Our highly trained technicians will decontaminate your property, working in coordination with fire departments and police to help you through this process as efficiently and quickly as possible.
Our bio-cleaning professionals also specialize in remediating hoarding situations. Hoarding can be dangerous because it can put those in the vicinity at risk of fire, poor sanitation, and even structural issues in their home or commercial property in extreme cases.
Asbestos Abatement
Asbestos is commonly found in older buildings, both residential and. It can be found in numerous construction materials, including concrete, asphalt, roof shingles, pipes, siding, wall board, floor tiles, joint compounds, adhesive, and insulation. The US banned the use of asbestos in the manufacturing of most materials in 1978, which is why we assume properties constructed before 1980 could have asbestos present. However, it’s important to note that in our increasingly global marketplace, many building materials are imported from abroad, and not all countries have the same stringent guidelines as the US. Because of this, it is possible to come across asbestos in newer structures, especially commercial buildings.
The hazardous nature of asbestos abatement calls for professional remediation to ensure safe removal and disposal. HRS will extract all asbestos from your property to bring it back to a safely inhabitable space. Once the asbestos remediation is complete, our restoration team can rebuild the affected areas.
Commercial Restoration
Dealing with a disaster situation at a commercial property type requires an additional skill set. Unlike a residence, commercial buildings have employees and, often, patrons that are affected by an incident such as a water event or smoke damage. HRS will provide the necessary remediation services efficiently and discretely. Regardless of when the damage occurs—during business hours or in the middle of the night—HRS is available to remedy the situation. Water damage … storm damage … mold remediation … fire/smoke mitigation … HRS’s professional technicians are ready to bring your property back to its pre-disaster state.
Even well-maintained properties can experience the need for emergency restoration services. Whether you manage or own a hospital, school, apartment complex, office building, hotel, church, or retail establishment, HRS can handle your situation and our IICRC technicians can give you the peace of mind that your property will be professionally repaired.
