When the Unexpected Happens, We're Here to Help

Water and fire damage can turn your world upside down. Knowing what to do next, who to call, and how to navigate the insurance process can feel overwhelming. At MasterCraft on Main, LLC, we can assist with both emergency damage mitigation and the repairs and reconstruction that follow. From assessing the damage and helping prevent further loss to structural drying, restoration, and rebuilding, we work to make the recovery process as straightforward as possible. We can also assist with documenting damage and communicating with your insurance company, with your authorization, while keeping you informed throughout the project.

Step 1 – Safety Comes First

Your safety is always the first priority.

If your property has experienced fire, flooding, structural damage, or electrical hazards:

  • Follow instructions from emergency responders.

  • Do not enter unsafe areas.

  • Shut off utilities only if it is safe to do so.

  • Contact emergency services when necessary.

Never put yourself at risk trying to prevent additional property damage.

Step 2 – Contact MasterCraft & Notify Your Insurance Company

Once everyone is safe, contact MasterCraft on Main to discuss the damage and any immediate concerns.

If the loss may be covered by insurance, notify your insurance carrier as soon as possible to begin the claims process.

You don't need to wait for an insurance adjuster before contacting us. Some situations require prompt action to help prevent additional damage.

Step 3 – Initial Damage Assessment & Documentation

Once the property is safe to access, we'll evaluate the damage and determine what needs attention.

Our assessment may include:

  • Visible and potentially hidden damage

  • Structural and electrical concerns

  • Moisture intrusion

  • Areas requiring immediate protection

  • Photographs, measurements, and damage documentation

This information helps us determine the appropriate next steps and supports the restoration and insurance process.

Step 4 – Emergency Protection & Stabilization

Some situations require immediate measures to help prevent additional damage.

Depending on the circumstances, these services may include:

  • Emergency board-up

  • Temporary roof protection

  • Initial water extraction

  • Temporary weather protection

  • Property stabilization

Our focus is helping protect the property while the full extent of the damage is evaluated.

Step 5 – Mitigation, Cleanup & Structural Drying

Once immediate concerns are addressed, we begin the necessary mitigation work.

Depending on the type and extent of damage, this may include:

  • Water removal and structural drying

  • Smoke and soot cleanup

  • Odor control

  • Removal of damaged materials

  • Cleaning and preparing affected areas for restoration

As an IICRC Certified Firm, MasterCraft follows applicable industry standards and recognized restoration practices.

Step 6 – Restoration Planning & Estimates

After assessing the damage and identifying the necessary work, we'll develop a restoration plan.

This may include:

  • A detailed scope of repairs

  • Material and labor estimates

  • Identifying areas requiring reconstruction

  • Reviewing available repair or replacement options

  • Discussing anticipated project scheduling

Our goal is to help you understand what needs to be done and what to expect.

Step 7 – Insurance Coordination & Project Authorization

When an insurance claim is involved, we can assist with the documentation needed to support the restoration process.

With your authorization, we can communicate with your adjuster, provide supporting information, and address questions about the proposed scope of work.

Your insurance company determines coverage under your policy. We'll review the work to be performed with you and obtain the necessary authorization before proceeding with reconstruction.

Emergency mitigation and claim coordination may occur at the same time.

Step 8 – Repairs & Reconstruction

Once the property is ready for rebuilding and the work is authorized, MasterCraft can handle the necessary repairs and reconstruction.

Services may include:

  • Drywall and carpentry

  • Electrical repairs

  • Flooring and painting

  • Cabinet installation

  • Trim and finish work

  • Window and door replacement

  • Structural and exterior repairs

From the initial mitigation through the finishing details, our goal is to help restore your property with dependable workmanship and clear communication.

Step 9 – Final Walk-Through & Completion

Before the project is complete, we'll review the finished work with you.

During the final walk-through, we'll:

  • Review completed repairs

  • Answer questions

  • Discuss applicable warranties

  • Confirm the agreed scope of work has been completed

  • Address any outstanding concerns

Our goal is to leave you informed, confident, and ready to move forward. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I contact my insurance company before calling MasterCraft?

If you believe the damage may be covered by insurance, notify your insurance company promptly. However, you don't have to wait for an adjuster before contacting MasterCraft.

Some situations require immediate action to help prevent additional damage. We can explain the restoration process and help you understand the next steps.

Can you work with my insurance company?

Yes! With your authorization, we can communicate with your insurance adjuster and provide estimates, photographs, damage documentation, and information related to the work we perform.

Your insurance company makes the final determination regarding coverage.

Will everything need to be replaced?

Not necessarily! Whenever possible and appropriate, we look for ways to preserve materials that can be safely restored.

Our goal is to identify what genuinely needs repairing or replacing rather than automatically recommending a complete replacement.

How long will restoration take?

Every project is different. The timeline depends on the extent of the damage, drying requirements, inspections, material availability, and the repairs needed.

We'll discuss the anticipated timeline as the scope of work becomes clear.

Do you handle reconstruction after mitigation?

Absolutely! MasterCraft provides both damage mitigation and reconstruction services.

From the initial cleanup and structural drying through repairs and finishing work, we can help you through multiple stages of restoring your property.
