A fire or flood doesn’t just damage property—it changes everything in an instant. In the aftermath, you’re left with more than debris and water-soaked belongings; you’re faced with uncertainty, stress, and the urgent need to protect what remains. For Michigan homeowners and business owners, these emergencies bring life to a sudden stop—halting operations, displacing families, and putting safety at risk.
The aftermath of a fire or major water event is rarely straightforward. A blaze may leave behind charred structures and thick layers of smoke residue, but it also invites another hidden enemy: water. The very efforts to extinguish flames often cause significant water saturation, leaving floors, walls, and ceilings drenched. That’s why fire and water damage are almost always connected, and why recovery requires a team skilled in handling both.
At Titus Contracting, we understand that time is the most critical factor in disaster recovery. As a trusted Michigan-based restoration company, we provide 24/7 emergency response for fire, smoke, and water damage. Our certified technicians are trained to act quickly—arriving with state-of-the-art extraction systems, industrial drying equipment, and specialized cleaning technology to stop further damage before it spreads.
Every minute counts after disaster strikes, and our mission is to minimize disruption while maximizing restoration. From small residential fires to large commercial losses, Titus Contracting offers the expertise, compassion, and precision it takes to rebuild safely and efficiently. With transparent communication, rapid response, and advanced restoration methods, we don’t just repair property—we help you recover peace of mind.
When fire or water strikes, recovery requires more than cleanup—it demands precision, expertise, and coordination. Titus Contracting follows a proven, step-by-step process designed to manage even the most complex losses efficiently and safely. Every stage is performed by IICRC-certified technicians who uphold industry-leading standards of quality and care.
Emergency Response & Safety Assessment
Our emergency crews are on call 24/7 to respond immediately after disaster strikes. Upon arrival, we secure the site to prevent further damage and perform a detailed safety inspection. This includes evaluating the structure’s integrity, identifying hazards such as weakened floors or exposed wiring, and ensuring the property is safe for entry.
Water Extraction & Drying
Following firefighting efforts or flooding, standing water can cause extensive secondary damage if not addressed right away. Using high-powered truck-mounted extraction units and industrial dehumidifiers, we remove water quickly from flooring, walls, and structural cavities. Continuous moisture monitoring ensures every area is completely dry to prevent mold or decay.
Soot, Smoke, and Odor Removal
Soot and smoke residues are corrosive and must be handled with care. Our team uses HEPA-filtered air scrubbers and specialized ozone treatments to purify the air and remove lingering odors. We deep-clean walls, ceilings, and HVAC systems to eliminate smoke particles, leaving your home or business fresh and safe.
Debris & Damaged Material Removal
Charred building materials, damaged insulation, and contaminated debris are safely removed and disposed of according to EPA and local regulations. This step ensures that only clean, structurally sound materials remain before reconstruction begins.
Cleaning & Sanitization
Every surface affected by fire or water is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. We use EPA-approved antimicrobial solutions to eliminate bacteria, soot residue, and odors, restoring a healthy indoor environment.
Structural Repairs & Reconstruction
Once the area is cleaned and stabilized, Titus Contracting’s skilled craftsmen handle complete reconstruction—replacing drywall, flooring, roofing, and framing. Our full-service approach means you won’t need multiple contractors; we handle everything from start to finish, ensuring a seamless recovery.
Final Inspection & Quality Verification
Before completing any project, our team performs a detailed inspection to confirm that every surface, system, and space meets Titus Contracting’s high standards for safety and cleanliness. Moisture readings, air quality checks, and visual inspections verify that your property is fully restored and ready for occupancy.
