Fire & Water Damage Restoration by Collins
When a home or business suffers from fire or flood damage, the aftermath can feel overwhelming. Smoke, flames, and water used to extinguish the fire often leave behind a complex web of destruction. At Collins, we specialize in handling all aspects of fire and flood restoration—from the initial damage assessment to the final rebuild.
We’re not just restoration experts—we’re a Licensed Class A General Contractor, which means we can handle everything from minor repairs to full structural rebuilds. We pull all necessary permits, work directly with insurance companies, and make sure your property is fully restored to a safe, livable, and beautiful condition.
Working With Insurance on Your Behalf
Collins works closely with insurance providers to ensure that all damage is properly assessed and that our clients receive the full amount they’re entitled to for repairs. We advocate on your behalf to get everything covered—then we do the work to make it right. Our goal is to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
A Tailored Approach to Every Restoration
No two fire or flood incidents are the same. That’s why we take a customized approach to every project. Whether your fire was small and contained or caused widespread structural damage, our team adapts to meet the unique needs of your situation.

We’ve helped countless homeowners and business owners recover from disaster, and our knowledge allows us to anticipate issues others might miss. That attention to detail can make all the difference in the quality and longevity of your restored property.

Our Proven Restoration Process:
-
Complete Damage Assessment
One of our trained professionals will carefully inspect every inch of the property to uncover visible and hidden damage. For example, floors that appear solid may be warped underneath, or framing may be compromised. Detecting these issues early helps avoid costly repairs later—and increases the chances of full insurance coverage.

Securing Unsafe Areas
Safety is our top priority. Fire and water damage can weaken key structural components, so we isolate unsafe areas and protect parts of the property that can still be worked on safely.

Smoke & Soot Cleanup
After drying, we thoroughly clean all affected surfaces. Walls, ceilings, floors, and fixtures are scrubbed to remove soot, and we use advanced air-scrubbing systems to eliminate lingering smoke odors and improve indoor air quality.
