When disaster strikes, whether from a burst pipe or a house fire, homeowners and property managers need a reliable restoration partner they can trust. In Fort Lauderdale, fire and water damage restoration is more than just cleaning up a mess—it’s about helping people get their lives and properties back on track as quickly and safely as possible.
At First Coast Contracting, we specialize in restoring homes and businesses affected by water and fire damage. With years of hands-on experience, our team serves the greater Fort Lauderdale area and nearby communities with a focus on efficiency, safety, and honest service.
Once the immediate threat has passed, the aftermath of fire or water damage can feel overwhelming. Many property owners aren’t sure where to begin or what steps to take. That’s where a professional restoration team becomes essential.
We start by responding quickly to assess the damage. In emergency situations—like flooding after a storm or smoke damage after a kitchen fire—our crew is available 24/7 to evaluate the extent of the issue and secure the property if needed.
For water damage, our priority is to stop further intrusion and remove standing water. We use industrial-grade pumps and vacuums, followed by air movers and dehumidifiers to dry affected areas. Moisture mapping and monitoring ensure that no damp spots are left behind, which could lead to mold growth.
In fire damage cases, smoke and soot can linger in walls, ceilings, HVAC systems, and furniture. We clean surfaces thoroughly using specialized equipment and methods that neutralize odors and remove particles without damaging the structure.
Damaged materials that can’t be salvaged are removed safely. This may include drywall, insulation, flooring, or cabinetry. We take care of proper disposal and always keep clients informed before removing anything.
Both fire and water damage can lead to microbial issues. We disinfect affected areas using EPA-approved products and apply mold inhibitors where necessary. This is a critical step, especially in humid areas like Fort Lauderdale, where moisture can create long-term issues.
Once everything is clean and dry, we move on to repair and reconstruction. Whether it’s replacing drywall or rebuilding entire rooms, our team restores the property to its original condition—or better.
We know that Fort Lauderdale homeowners have options when it comes to restoration services. Here’s what sets us apart:
We understand the unique weather conditions in Broward County. Whether it’s a tropical storm that causes flooding or a power surge that leads to electrical fires, we know how to handle the common causes of damage in Fort Lauderdale and nearby areas like Davie, Hollywood, Plantation, and Sunrise.
Our team includes certified restoration technicians, licensed contractors, and skilled tradespeople who follow local building codes and industry standards. We’re fully insured, so our clients are protected throughout the project.
From the initial inspection to the final coat of paint, we manage the entire process. That means less stress and fewer contractors to coordinate. We also assist with insurance claims and provide documentation to make the process smoother for our clients.
Property restoration involves important decisions and constant updates. We keep our clients informed every step of the way—what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and how long it will take.
We don’t cut corners when it comes to safety. From using protective gear during cleanup to properly disposing of hazardous materials, we prioritize the well-being of our team and our clients.
Our restoration services extend throughout the Fort Lauderdale area. We frequently respond to homes and businesses in:
Wherever your property is located, you can count on us to arrive quickly and ready to help.
Call Us Immediately. The sooner we start the restoration process, the better chance we have of salvaging materials and preventing mold or additional damage.
Document the Damage. Take photos or videos for insurance purposes. This helps with your claim and provides a clear record of what happened.
Don’t Attempt Major Cleanup Yourself. While it might be tempting to start tearing out wet materials or cleaning soot-covered surfaces, improper handling can cause further damage or pose health risks.
Trust Professionals to Handle the Hard Work. From drying and cleaning to rebuilding and painting, we’re equipped to handle every part of the process.
It depends on the extent of the damage. Minor water cleanup might take a few days, while full fire restoration with reconstruction could take several weeks. We provide clear timelines after our initial inspection.
Sometimes, yes—especially for minor water issues. But in cases involving smoke, soot, or extensive demolition, it may be safer to temporarily relocate. We help clients make that decision based on safety and comfort.
Most homeowners' insurance policies cover fire and water damage, but the coverage depends on your specific plan and what caused the damage. We work directly with insurance providers to streamline claims.
Yes. We apply mold-prevention treatments during water restoration and, if needed, perform mold remediation to ensure your property is safe and healthy.

When you need reliable fire and water damage restoration in Fort Lauderdale, First Coast Contracting is here to help. We take pride in doing the job right, respecting your space, and guiding you through a stressful time with steady hands and clear communication.
