Comprehensive Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration

Restoring Your Property – Proving the Full Loss – Protecting Your Entitlement

When fire damages your property, you need more than cleanup. You need a partner who ensures the loss is properly documented, the settlement is properly supported, and the rebuild is done right.

Why Policyholders Need Help After a Fire

Fire and smoke losses are some of the most mis-scoped events in insurance. Smoke travels far beyond what is visible—into structural cavities, mechanical systems, wiring, insulation, and attics.

Without proper investigation and documentation, policyholders are routinely left with insufficient funds to rebuild correctly.

PAAC prevents this by:

  • Exposing hidden smoke migration
  • Documenting the true structural and mechanical impact
  • Proving the full loss to the insurer
  • Ensuring the settlement supports a proper repair and rebuild

Your rebuild is only as good as the proof behind it—PAAC delivers that proof.

The PAAC Advantage: The Only Firm Combining Construction + Advocacy

Most restoration companies repair or replace. Most advocates only document.

PAAC does both – in parallel – restores your building while advocating your settlement.

Mitigation – Proof of Loss – Reconstruction

We are the only company that fulfills all three of your contractual responsibilities.

Expertise

Large-loss specialists trained to expose and remediate fire damage properly.

Proof

Action

Immediate mitigation and structural restoration that prevents secondary damage.

Results

A settlement and rebuild that reflect the true scope of the loss.

PAAC only advocates scopes and costs that we are prepared to complete ourselves. Retaining PAAC to complete the rebuild avoids third-party execution challenges by maintaining a single point of accountability.

Fire & Smoke Damage – Frequently Asked Questions

Why does PAAC run construction and advocacy together?

Because it is the only way to fully discover, document, and prove the complete fire loss while preventing further damage. No other company does this.

No. We work exclusively for the policyholder to protect your entitlement and secure a proper rebuild.

CRO stands for Comprehensive Repair Overview.

It is PAAC’s full construction-based loss document that proves the complete scope of damage using evidence, destructive testing, structural findings, code requirements and photos. The CRO becomes the foundation for the insurance settlement and ensures the rebuild is properly funded.

Advocacy is included when PAAC performs the rebuild.

Yes—this is our specialization.
