What’s Included in Our Home Renovation Services

When you hire First Restoration America, Inc. for a renovation in Matthews, you get a full-service team that manages every phase of the project. From initial planning through final finishes, we handle the details so you don’t have to.

Structural Repairs and Framing

Many Matthews homes, especially those built in the 1980s and 1990s, develop framing issues after water intrusion or prolonged moisture exposure. We assess structural integrity and repair or replace damaged framing before any finishes are applied. This step is critical for long-term durability and code compliance.

Interior Finishes and Remodeling Work

Our crews install drywall, flooring, cabinetry, trim, and paint throughout the renovated space using materials matched to your style and budget. We have experience with a wide range of finish types, from hardwood and tile to luxury vinyl and custom millwork. Every installation is measured carefully and aligned to manufacturer specs.

Bathroom and Kitchen Upgrades

Bathrooms and kitchens are among the most requested renovation projects for Matthews homeowners. We handle layout changes, plumbing rough-in coordination, fixture installation, and tiling to deliver a finished space that functions well and looks sharp. Contact us to discuss your vision and get a realistic cost estimate for your project.

If you are also dealing with damage from water or mold, our team handles water damage repair and mold remediation before the renovation work begins, so the finished space is truly clean and sound.

When Do Matthews Homeowners Need Renovation Services?

Renovation projects in Matthews are triggered by a variety of situations. Some homeowners plan upgrades to increase property value or modernize aging spaces, while others need repairs following unexpected damage. Knowing when to call a professional makes a real difference in outcome and cost.

After Water, Fire, or Storm Damage

Heavy rainfall and summer storms are common in the Charlotte metro area, and Matthews properties can suffer roof damage, flooded basements, and water-soaked walls. After emergency cleanup and fire and smoke damage restoration, full renovation is often necessary to return the home to livable condition. Acting quickly after damage limits secondary problems like mold growth and structural rot.

Aging Homes with Outdated Systems and Finishes

Older homes in established Matthews neighborhoods often have outdated electrical panels, plumbing fixtures, and cosmetic finishes that no longer meet modern expectations or code standards. Renovation gives homeowners the opportunity to address these issues while improving comfort and functionality at the same time. Our team has extensive experience working inside older residential construction in Mecklenburg County.

Pre-Sale Renovations and Property Upgrades

The Matthews real estate market is competitive, and buyers have high expectations for move-in-ready homes. A targeted renovation, whether it’s a fresh kitchen, updated bathrooms, or new flooring throughout, can significantly improve your asking price and time on market. We help homeowners prioritize improvements that deliver the strongest return.

Don’t wait until minor issues become major repair bills. Call First Restoration America, Inc. early to assess your home and plan a renovation that fits your timeline and budget.

Our Home Renovation Process for Matthews Homes

Reach out to our Matthews office by phone or online to set up your first appointment. We offer flexible scheduling and can typically get a team member to your home within a few days. Come ready to share your goals, any existing damage, and your budget range so we can tailor our recommendations from the start.

Assess Your Home and Define the Scope

We walk through the property with you, examining the areas to be renovated and identifying any underlying issues that need to be addressed first. Our team documents conditions with photos and measurements, then produces a written scope of work and cost estimate. For insurance-related projects, we coordinate with your adjuster during this phase to make sure the scope aligns with your claim.

Complete the Renovation Work

Once the plan is approved and permits are secured, our licensed crews get to work on schedule. We handle every trade involved in the renovation, including carpentry, drywall, flooring, painting, and fixture installation, so there is no need to juggle multiple contractors. You receive regular updates throughout the build phase so you always know the current status of your project. For projects involving sewage cleanup or other emergency remediation beforehand, we coordinate the transition smoothly into the rebuild phase.

Final Inspection and Walkthrough

When the work is complete, we walk through every finished area with you to verify quality and confirm the project matches the agreed scope. Any punch list items are addressed promptly before we consider the job closed. Our goal is for every Matthews homeowner to feel confident in the work before we leave the site.

I’m thrilled with the work done by First Restoration. The crew was punctual, professional, clean, and the project started and ended when they said it would! The price for my remodel was very competitive, and there were no “surprises” along the way. Within 2 days of the project being completed, I received a call from the owner of the company asking if I needed anything else, and if I was satisfied. I appreciated the personal touch and desire to ensure I was satisfied with their work product. 5 stars!

First restoration was great. I had a leak from an upstairs washer. Keith answered my call right away. Employees arrived a few hours after my call and set up the fans and dehumidifier. First restoration was great and would strongly recommend them in the future.
