@Jeremy VanDelinder No offense taken, hahh hence the term "sometimes." I've never attempted fire restoration bc I'm not qualified and wouldn't even try. Just wanted to put it out there in case no one else replied that you've gotta look for someone like you and not just any old carpenter like me.
The only experience I've got is a client of mine who had a fire in his remodel and I personally thought it looked FUBAR'd but he later told me it actually wasn't bad. I was shocked when he told me little it cost (well, relatively little)
That is great advice you give too about the water damage side of it. @Michael Lloyd you'd be looking for a guy like Jeremy here wherever you're located.
