Book Or Call
Book online in 60 seconds or call the 24-hour line. Dispatch sees it immediately.
We Show Up
Crew stops the damage — extraction, board-up, tarping — and documents everything with photos and moisture readings.
Insurance Handled
Xactimate estimate to your carrier, adjuster walk-through on site, supplements when hidden damage turns up.
We Rebuild
Drywall, flooring, cabinets, paint, roof — repaired under our own GC license until it looks like nothing happened.
Southern California Damage, Specifically
Most OC and San Diego homes sit on concrete slabs — when a pipe under one fails, it shows up as warm floors, wet carpet, and spiking water bills. We locate it, open it, fix it, and restore the flooring.
SoCal winters now drop months of rain in a weekend. Flooded garages, hillside runoff, failed roofs — we tarp and pump the same night, then handle the repairs and the claim.
You don't need flames on your street to have smoke damage. Ash intrusion and odor travel miles. We clean structure, contents and ducts, and document it for your carrier.

- Estimates written in Xactimate, the program adjusters price from
- Photos, moisture logs and drying records on every job

Straight Answers
Do you bill my insurance company directly?
Yes. We work with all insurance companies. We document the damage, write the estimate in Xactimate — the same program the adjusters use — and bill your carrier directly. On covered losses you usually pay just your deductible.
How fast can you get here?
We dispatch around the clock. In Orange County we target 60–90 minutes to your door; San Diego County, Temecula and Murrieta get the fastest crew available, day or night.
Do you do the repairs too, or just the cleanup?
We do it all. FirstHour is run by SSD Constructors, a licensed Class A and B general contractor. The same company that dries your walls puts the drywall, flooring and paint back. No second contractor.
What does the inspection cost?
Nothing. We come out, look at the damage, tell you what it needs and what your options are. No obligation.
Do I have to use the company my insurance recommends?
No. In California you choose your own contractor. Your carrier can suggest a vendor, but the decision is yours.
