Structural and electrical repairs are performed under proper permits and inspected per Columbus, OH code requirements.

A question we hear often in Columbus is whether a general contractor can handle fire repair the same way they'd handle a standard renovation, and the honest answer is that fire repair carries structural and code considerations a typical remodel doesn't.
Heat-compromised framing can look structurally sound while having lost a meaningful percentage of its load-bearing strength, which a contractor without fire-specific training might not know to test for.
That's part of why Columbus, OH building departments increasingly ask for fire-specific documentation on permit applications involving structural repair, and having that documentation ready from day one keeps the Fire Damage Repair project moving instead of stalling at the permit office.
We keep relationships with local Columbus building inspectors' offices to help schedule required inspections without the typical multi-week wait.
We reinforce or replace framing members based on measured structural loss, following standard sistering techniques where repair is possible.
