Rescue Restoration Inc.

Permits pulled on the licence between 2016 and 2023 show reroofs and roofing repairs in Spokane and Mead, a residential building permit and an accessory building in Spokane Valley, and a minor alteration in Spokane in 2023. The state's workers'-comp classes cover roofing, interior finish carpentry, interior and exterior painting, flooring, remodeling, asbestos abatement and carpet and janitorial cleaning, which fits a shop that both cleans up a loss and rebuilds after it. The firm holds a Washington lead-safe renovation certification. It did subcontract work for Spokane Public Schools plant operations in 2006. The state lists Robert and Robin Whitehead as principals. This is a small outfit with the owner on the job and an office manager handling the desk, and it gets its work through referrals and repeat customers. It suits a burst pipe, an ice dam leak, a mold problem or fire and smoke damage, where one company does the drying, testing, odor treatment and repairs. The company says it offers emergency board-up and a customer satisfaction guarantee. Ground-up framing and large commercial contracts sit outside its usual work, which centers on repair and restoration in occupied homes. Whether to repair or replace after water damage on a Spokane home usually depends on how long the water sat. Drywall and subfloor that dry quickly can often be patched. Material that stayed wet, smells musty or shows staining behind baseboards is usually better cut out and replaced, since mold grows in wall cavities you can't see. Older homes on the South Hill and in north Spokane often have lead paint, so any cutting or sanding should be done by a lead-safe certified firm. Ice dams after a hard winter can rot roof decking along the eaves, and replacing that section during the repair is often cheaper than a second leak later.
