Overview

Reconstruction & General Contracting Services in Los Angeles & Orange County

Reconstruction & General Contracting in Los Angeles & Orange County

After restoration stabilizes your property, reconstruction rebuilds it — and Save The Day Restoration is one of the few companies in Southern California that handles both under one roof, eliminating costly delays, communication gaps, and the stress of managing multiple contractors. Our licensed general contracting team provides full-scope reconstruction services throughout Los Angeles County and Orange County, from insurance rebuilds after fire and water damage to elective remodeling projects including kitchen renovations, bathroom remodels, ADU construction, and room additions.

Reconstruction after property damage involves far more than replacing drywall and paint. California's Title 24 building codes often require bringing damaged areas up to current energy efficiency, structural, and safety standards — meaning your rebuild may include upgraded electrical, plumbing, insulation, and seismic reinforcement. Our team navigates these code requirements daily, managing permits, inspections, engineering, and compliance so you don't have to. We restore your property to pre-loss condition or better, on time and within your insurance scope.

Our reconstruction services include structural framing and engineering, drywall installation and finishing, flooring replacement (hardwood, tile, carpet, LVP), kitchen and bathroom remodeling, cabinetry and countertop installation, electrical and plumbing upgrades, painting and finishing, ADU construction, room additions, and complete home renovation. We coordinate the restoration and reconstruction scope, including any specialist trades required for the project. Call (562) 246-9908 to discuss your project. Licensed Contractor #1049188.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about reconstruction & general contracting across Los Angeles and Orange County.

What's the difference between restoration and reconstruction?

Restoration addresses immediate damage — extracting water, removing smoke, and drying structures. Reconstruction is the rebuilding phase — replacing drywall, flooring, cabinets, and finishes to restore your property to pre-loss or better condition.

How long does reconstruction take after damage?

A single room may take 2-4 weeks while extensive structural rebuilds take 2-6 months. Having one company handle both restoration and reconstruction eliminates the typical 2-4 week gap between hiring separate contractors.

Will my insurance pay for reconstruction?

Yes — your policy's dwelling coverage typically pays to restore your property to pre-loss condition. If building codes require upgrades, many policies include code upgrade coverage. We thoroughly document your claim to support coverage of legitimate rebuild costs.

Do I need a separate contractor for reconstruction?

No — and doing so usually costs more and delays the timeline. STDR handles both restoration and reconstruction under one roof with one point of contact, eliminating coordination gaps and change orders.

Can I make upgrades during reconstruction?

Absolutely. Insurance covers restoring to pre-loss condition, but many homeowners upgrade materials, layouts, or finishes during the rebuild. We clearly delineate what insurance covers versus your personal investment.
