Restoring Tempe Homes & Businesses, One Project at a Time


From historic ranch homes near Broadmor and ASU, to mid-century properties around Shalimar Golf Club, to modern builds in South Tempe along Warner, McClintock, and Kyrene, every property comes with unique construction quirks.


Our fire restoration and rebuild crews handle:


  • Board-up, roof tarping, and securing your property after fire damage
  • Smoke and soot cleanup
  • Water damage mitigation from hoses or sprinklers used to fight the fire
  • Mold prevention and remediation
  • Drywall, texturing, and color-match painting
  • Flooring replacement — tile, vinyl plank, or carpet
  • Trim, doors, and cabinetry reset
  • Minor electrical and plumbing finishes tied to the loss


We’ve restored homes and businesses in neighborhoods including Downtown Tempe, Tempe Town Lake, Broadmor, Warner Ranch, McClintock Ranch, Shalimar, and Alta Mira, ensuring each property is returned safely and beautifully.


Why Local Experience Matters

Tempe fires present unique challenges:


  • Older copper wiring in historic homes
  • Apartments and condos with shared utilities and tight access
  • Commercial properties near Tempe Marketplace or along Rural Road


Our local crews know the neighborhoods, city codes, and inspection processes, so we can:


  • Coordinate with City of Tempe inspectors and HOAs in Warner Ranch, Raintree, and Westchester Estates
  • Match finishes to local builder styles
  • Anticipate fire-related hazards unique to Tempe structures
  • Insurance Coordination Without the Headache


We work directly with all major insurance carriers:


  • Detailed fire restoration and rebuild scopes written in insurance-friendly language
  • Transparent pricing with no hidden surprises
  • Seamless communication between mitigation vendors, adjusters, and homeowners
  • Our goal is to mitigate damage, rebuild properly, and document everything so your claim is smooth and complete.


Tempe Homeowners and Business Owners Often Ask


Do I need to use the same company that did my mitigation?

No — you can hire any licensed contractor for the rebuild. Many Tempe residents and business owners choose RCS Builders for true craftsmanship, not patchwork repairs.


Safe Fire Rebuild Timeline for Tempe Homes & Businesses

  1. Minor fire damage (single room or small kitchen/laundry area):
  • 3–4 weeks
  • Covers smoke cleanup, drywall repair, painting, minor flooring, and trim work
  1. Moderate fire damage (multiple rooms, partial structural impact):
  • 2-4 months
  • Includes framing, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, electrical/plumbing repairs, and odor mitigation
  1. Severe fire damage (entire home, commercial property, major structural loss):
  • 6-12 months
  • Full reconstruction, permit approvals, inspections, specialized cleanup, and rebuild of all affected systems

Notes for Clients

  • These timelines include buffer time for insurance approvals, city inspections, and material availability.
  • Homeowners often request upgrades during the rebuild, which can extend the project slightly.
  • Using these safe ranges ensures you underpromise and overdeliver, which builds trust.


Can upgrades be added during the rebuild?

Yes — clients often update flooring, cabinetry, or finishes while we restore the property.
