Call +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Capitol View roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.

Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Capitol View, SC insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.

The number we quote after inspection is the number on the final invoice, barring written change orders you approve.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.
