Sevco Restoration provides fire, water, smoke, storm, and biohazard damage restoration and reconstruction services for residential and commercial properties in Chandler, Arizona. As a licensed Arizona general contractor (ROC#351895), we manage the entire restoration process, from initial damage assessment and mitigation to complete reconstruction. Our approach integrates detailed documentation, transparent scope development, and adherence to IICRC standards, ensuring properties are restored efficiently and to pre-loss condition. We understand the specific challenges presented by Chandler's diverse property landscape, from the established 1980s and 1990s homes in north Chandler to the newer master-planned communities like Fulton Ranch and Ocotillo.
Water Damage Restoration in Chandler
Water damage in Chandler can stem from various sources, including monsoon season events, plumbing failures, or appliance malfunctions. Properties in flood risk areas, such as those within the Gila River floodplain in south Chandler or low-lying areas near Chandler Heights, face elevated risks during heavy rainfall. Lakefront properties in Ocotillo, while aesthetically desirable, introduce unique considerations for water intrusion and elevated replacement costs due to custom finishes and construction. Our water damage restoration process begins with immediate moisture mapping using professional-grade hygrometers and thermal imaging to identify all affected areas, including concealed moisture. We then implement IICRC-compliant drying protocols, utilizing desiccant dehumidifiers and air movers to achieve structural drying. For properties built in the 2000s and 2010s, common in south Chandler, this often involves addressing multi-layered construction materials like engineered wood flooring over concrete slabs, and coordinating with HOAs for exterior access.
Following mitigation, we develop an Xactimate scope of repairs, detailing all necessary reconstruction. This scope, supported by Matterport 3D documentation, provides a verifiable record of damage and proposed repairs, facilitating efficient insurance claims processing. Given Chandler's strong HOA culture, particularly in communities like Fulton Ranch and Sun Lakes, we proactively engage with HOA management to secure necessary approvals for exterior work and ensure compliance with community guidelines. This coordination is critical to avoid delays in the permitting process with Chandler Development Services, which typically processes restoration permits within 3 to 5 business days. Our objective is to restore the property to its pre-loss condition with minimal disruption, addressing both visible damage and underlying structural integrity.

Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration in Chandler
Fire and smoke damage presents complex restoration challenges, requiring specialized expertise. While Chandler has a low wildfire risk, structural fires can occur in any property. The restoration process for fire and smoke damage involves several critical steps. First, we conduct a thorough assessment to determine the extent of structural damage and identify areas affected by smoke and soot residue. This includes evaluating the integrity of framing, roofing, and other structural components, which is particularly relevant for 1980s and 1990s construction in north Chandler where original building materials may be more susceptible to fire damage.
Smoke damage, even from small fires, can permeate porous materials and HVAC systems, leading to persistent odors and corrosive effects. Our technicians employ specialized cleaning agents and techniques, including ozone treatment and thermal fogging, to neutralize smoke odors and remove soot from surfaces. We also address potential biohazard concerns if the fire involved specific materials. The reconstruction phase is meticulously planned using Xactimate estimating software, ensuring all repairs, from framing and drywall to finish carpentry and painting, are accurately scoped and priced. We manage all sub-trade coordination, providing a single point of contact for the property owner throughout the entire restoration and reconstruction process.
Storm Damage and Biohazard Cleanup
Chandler's monsoon season, from July through September, can bring sudden and severe storms, resulting in wind damage, hail damage, and localized flooding. Storm damage restoration by Sevco involves securing the property, mitigating immediate threats, and repairing the structural and aesthetic damage. This often includes roof repair, siding replacement, and interior water damage remediation. Our team is equipped to respond rapidly to storm events, providing emergency board-up and tarping services to prevent further damage. We document all storm-related damage with Matterport technology to support accurate insurance claims.
Biohazard situations, such as sewage backups, unattended deaths, or chemical spills, require specialized cleanup protocols to ensure safety and prevent contamination. Our biohazard cleanup services adhere to strict health and safety regulations, utilizing appropriate personal protective equipment and decontamination procedures. We meticulously remove and dispose of hazardous materials, disinfect affected areas, and restore the property to a safe and habitable condition. This includes addressing odors and ensuring all surfaces are free from pathogens.
Reconstruction and Permitting in Chandler
After mitigation, the reconstruction phase begins. Sevco Restoration, as a general contractor, manages all aspects of this process, from framing and electrical work to plumbing, drywall, and finish carpentry. We select and coordinate all necessary sub-trades, ensuring each phase of the reconstruction meets industry standards and local building codes. Our project managers provide regular updates, maintaining clear communication with property owners and insurance adjusters.
Navigating the permitting process in Chandler is a crucial step for reconstruction. Chandler Development Services generally processes restoration permits efficiently. However, in master-planned communities like Fulton Ranch, Ocotillo, and Sun Lakes, HOA pre-approval is often a prerequisite for permit submission. We assist property owners in preparing the necessary documentation and navigating these HOA requirements to expedite the permitting process. Our goal is to deliver a fully restored property, completed to exacting standards, and in compliance with all local regulations and HOA covenants.
