Our Residential Restoration Services
GSC Residential Restoration
Residential Fire Restoration
Fire restoration encompasses most of our work. Our estimators bring decades of experience and expertise in identifying both visible and hidden damage in homes affected by fire which often goes unnoticed without the right knowledge.
We also collaborate as a team to get a clear picture of the complete scope of work when faced with a complex fire loss. Then, we produce a detailed scope of work that lays out a clear plan, addressing all the damages sustained, both physical damage and smoke odor. By investing this time upfront, we set both our client and production teams up for success.
GSC Residential Restoration
Residential Water Restoration
Beyond the visible damage caused by a water loss, we also assess other components of your home that may have unseen damage. By identifying these issues upfront, we provide you and your insurance company with a comprehensive view of the entire project, helping to save time during the reconstruction process.
GSC Residential Restoration
Tree Strikes and Storm Damage
Major tree falls on homes can often cause damages extending beyond the initial impact point. Based on our depth of knowledge from decades of experience with these loss types, we identify the full extent of damage and work closely with our structural engineers to ensure your home is rebuilt correctly.
GSC Residential Restoration
Vehicular Damage
Vehicular damage claims are often localized but involve many trades, along with engineering and permitting. Our knowledge of this process helps expedite your repairs by addressing these complexities upfront, ensuring a faster resolution.
Why Work With Us for Residential Insurance Restoration?

Our Focus is Insurance Restoration
We specialize in insurance claims-based damage reconstruction which allows us to be experts in our field. The approach to restoration is very different from remodel and ground up construction and having a tailored approach to our specific field sets GSC apart from many companies in our area.
Comprehensive Management

We ensure you stay informed about your project, giving you confidence in your decision to choose Greater Seattle Construction.
Our Process
Our End-to-End Restoration Process
We understand that managing the claims process is just as crucial as the construction itself for a successful reconstruction project. Our experience equips us to navigate both aspects effectively.
1. Consultation
We first perform an initial assessment of the damage to your home and gather information so we can understand how to best help with your restoration project. At the same time, we explain our process and what you can expect from us from start to finish answering any questions you may have.
2. Scope & Timeline Discussion
Next, we develop the scope of work, discuss our approach to working with the insurance adjuster, and provide a full project overview. One of our core principles is managing expectations, so rest assured we will provide you with a realistic timeframe for your project.
3. Insurance Claim Management
We have extensive experience in reaching agreements on scopes of work and cost with insurance companies based on our decades of working alongside large loss adjusters and consultants. We bring a technical approach to our estimating and documentation to ensure the adjuster has a clear picture of the damages.
4. Material Selection Process
As we work towards reaching an agreed-upon cost with the insurance company, we guide you through the material selection process. Due to the abrupt nature of major loss claims, this process can often be overwhelming to our clients. Our approach breaks this process up into smaller groups of selections to be made at different times throughout the process while keeping critical path items at the top of the list to ensure a smooth project timeline is maintained.
5. Project Management
Your Estimator/Project Manager works closely with the Project Superintendent, who will oversee every aspect of the construction process. Our Production Manager works closely with both your Superintendent and Estimator to ensure we are always looking far ahead in the project timeline which allows the superintendent to focus on the day to day details. The biggest factor in a successful project comes down to communication, both with our client and our entire team. By focusing on great communication, our clients can return to a normal life routine and have peace of mind that their home is in good hands.
6. Project Completion
Once we complete the project, we provide our clients with a standard construction warranty and are available down the road should questions come up. We maintain relationships with several past clients and provide free consultation on routine maintenance, vendor referrals,and anything else they may need.

Frequently Asked Questions About Insurance Restoration
If you have any other questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to contact our team.
The question often asked by our clients is, “how long until we will be back in our home?” We take this question very seriously, as the answer can set the tone for the remainder of the project. This question varies based on the extent of damage, the city or county permitting office, and the complexity of the repairs. After the initial assessment, we work through a forecasting process based on our decades of experience to provide a realistic timeframe for our clients. We believe managing expectations upfront is paramount to a successful client relationship and project.
Yes you can! We often find clients want to make certain changes when heading into the rebuild process. These changes range from basic finish upgrades to layout tweaks to overall style changes. We work with clients from the inception of the idea, whether it be simple upgrades or re-designing entire layouts. We work through this process early in the claim and provide comprehensive proposals based on our client’s requests.
We work closely with your adjuster to agree on a scope of work and reach an agreed cost of repairs. We accomplish this by providing a detailed scope of work, supporting documentation, and a clear plan for the project. Large loss claims often have many moving parts beyond the actual construction. We mitigate these other factors by identifying key critical path items that will move the claim forward and allow the construction to start. Our collaborative and transparent approach to insurance claims allows your restoration project to move forward and avoid unnecessary delays.
With decades of experience in the insurance restoration industry, we’ve encountered nearly every situation imaginable. We thrive on the challenge of tackling large and complex claims, drawing on our extensive knowledge gained from completing thousands of restoration projects. On average, our team members have between 20 to 35 years of experience in the restoration field, ensuring we have the expertise to handle any challenge.
