Who We Are

A Licensed Peru Crew That Answers Its Own Phone

We opened in the Peru area because too many homeowners were getting a two-week wait for a "24/7" restoration company. Our trucks stage locally so that promise actually means something.

Working the 61354 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Peru code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.

We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Peru scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

Licensed & Insured

State-licensed for fire mitigation and reconstruction work.

Live Dispatch

A real technician answers the Peru line, any hour.

III

IICRC Trained

Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.

Adjuster-Ready Files

We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.

Every Peru job gets logged with dated photos at each stage, which has saved more than one homeowner an argument with their insurer over what was already damaged versus what happened during repairs.

Don't Wait On These

Signs A Peru Property Needs Fire Damage Removal Today, Not Next Week

Smoke Odor That Won't Fade

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.

Soot Around Vents

Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.

Swelling Floors Or Cabinets

Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

Pitting On Metal Hardware

Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.

Ongoing Respiratory Irritation

Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.

A Claim Filing Deadline

Peru, IL insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.

None of these six signs get better with time. The Peru properties that come through a fire loss with the least long-term damage are almost always the ones where someone called within the first few hours, not the first few days.

Core Services

The Full Fire Damage Removal Scope We Run In Peru, Start To Finish

Emergency Mitigation

Board-up, tarping, and extraction dispatched the same day to stop a Peru loss from spreading further.

Residential Soot & Smoke Cleanup

We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.

Commercial Restoration

Phased scopes that let Peru businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.

Structural Rebuild

Framing, drywall, and finish carpentry brought back to pre-loss condition and signed off by local Peru inspectors.

Odor Elimination

We treat smoke odor as a chemical problem, not a scent problem — hydroxyl and ozone equipment gets used accordingly.

Contents & Pack-Out

Contents get sorted early so you're not paying to store items that were never going to survive the damage.

Our Guarantee

Our Written Guarantee, Not Just A Sales Line

We'd rather put the guarantee on paper up front than have a disagreement about it once the job is finished.

No Surprise Line Items

Change orders require your written sign-off — nothing gets added to the bill without it.

One-Year Workmanship

Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.

Single Point Of Contact

You won't be bounced between five different subcontractors on this job.

A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial Peru inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
