Fire Damage Restoration in Tehama County, CA
A fire can leave behind far more than visible burn damage. Smoke, soot, water from firefighting efforts, damaged wiring, and weakened building materials can continue affecting a property long after the flames are out. At Eric Pettinger Construction, we provide emergency fire damage restoration, residential fire damage restoration, commercial fire damage restoration, and complete fire damage repair for homes and businesses throughout Tehama County, CA. Our team combines restoration experience, dependable construction, electrical repair, and clear communication to help property owners move from emergency response to a fully restored space.
Fast Help After a Property Fire
The hours immediately following a fire are critical. Damaged roofing, broken windows, exposed walls, standing water, and unstable materials can leave the property vulnerable to weather, theft, and additional deterioration.
Our team begins by evaluating the visible damage, identifying urgent safety concerns, and creating a practical restoration plan. We work to stabilize the property, limit further loss, and give you a clear understanding of what needs to happen next. Learn more about our full restoration services.

Complete Fire Damage Restoration
Fire restoration involves much more than replacing burned drywall or repainting a room. Heat can affect framing, smoke can travel through vents and wall cavities, and soot can settle on surfaces far from the original fire.
Our fire restoration services may include:
- Emergency property stabilization
- Removal of damaged materials and debris
- Smoke and soot cleanup coordination
- Water damage drying and repair
- Structural fire damage repair
- Electrical repair after property loss
- Drywall, flooring, and finish replacement
- Remodeling and reconstruction
- Residential and commercial restoration
We also evaluate the full property rather than focusing only on the most obvious damage. This helps us identify hidden concerns before repairs are completed. Read more restoration insights on our blog.
