Rebuilding After a Fire, Start to Finish
A fire loss is one of the most stressful things a property owner can face, and the rebuild is too big a job for a handyman or a roofing-only company. Because we hold both SC residential and commercial general contracting licenses, Exterior Genie can pull permits and rebuild everything: burned framing and trusses, roof systems, electrical and plumbing coordination, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, and exterior siding.
Fire claims are also among the most complex insurance claims. Scope disputes over what's smoke-damaged versus fire-damaged, code-upgrade coverage, and structural engineering requirements can drag on for months without an experienced contractor in your corner. We document the full extent of the loss, coordinate with your adjuster, and build a rebuild scope that gets your property back to pre-loss condition — or better.
Every fire rebuild is inspected to current South Carolina building code, which often means your rebuilt home is safer and more efficient than before the fire. We keep you informed at every milestone, from demo through final walkthrough.
