Reconstruction & General Contracting
Full-service reconstruction and general contracting from insurance rebuilds to kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, ADUs, and room additions.


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. Every project is managed by our in-house team — no subcontractor roulette. Call (562) 246-9908 to discuss your project. Licensed Contractor #1049188.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Get answers to the most common questions about this service category, insurance coverage, and what to expect during restoration.
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.
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.
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 maximize your claim to cover legitimate rebuild costs.
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.
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.
