REBUILDING AFTER A PROPERTY LOSS
A plan for the spaces you live in.
Residential reconstruction restores the building components of a home after a property loss and the necessary cleanup, drying or remediation. Metrospec Construction rebuilds affected living spaces in Greater Montréal, including kitchens, bathrooms, walls, ceilings, flooring, cabinets and finishes. We discuss the damaged areas, the work already completed and the decisions needed to define the reconstruction scope. For insured losses, that work is coordinated with the homeowner and the insurer or adjuster. Access, material selections and household needs are part of planning the project. If urgent restoration assistance is still needed, call us so your inquiry can be directed to Metrospec Cleaning.
THE RECONSTRUCTION SCOPE
The spaces that make a home work.
A repair in one room often connects to the next. We consider how walls, floors, cabinetry and finishes fit together, so the reconstruction scope reflects the affected spaces and the way your household uses them.

WORKING WITH YOUR INSURANCE FILE
One project. Clear responsibilities.
For an insured residential loss, the homeowner, insurer and reconstruction team each have a role. Clear conversations about scope and decisions help the work move forward.
You, the property owner
Share what happened, the spaces affected and the information you have. Discuss access, material choices and the needs of the people who live or work in the property.
Your insurer & adjuster
The insurer and adjuster assess the claim, the applicable coverage and the amounts available under the policy. Coverage decisions remain with the insurer.
Metrospec Construction
We discuss and carry out the reconstruction work within the agreed project scope, coordinating the affected building components with the parties involved.
Before authorizing permanent work, clarify the scope, budget and payment arrangements with the relevant parties. Additional improvements should be discussed separately from the insured repairs.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Before the rebuild begins.
What does residential reconstruction include?
The scope can include damaged walls, ceilings, flooring, cabinets, kitchens, bathrooms and finishes. The specific work depends on the loss, the materials removed and the agreed reconstruction plan.
Can you rebuild just one room?
Contact us to discuss the affected area. A project may concern one room or several connected spaces; the scope should also account for adjoining components and finishing transitions.
Can we remain in our home during the work?
That depends on the areas affected, access and conditions at the property. Discuss occupancy with the parties handling the loss and reconstruction. Raise household needs early so they can be considered in planning.
Can you help with temporary housing?
Temporary housing assistance is available alongside restoration and reconstruction. Explain your household’s needs so we can discuss the support available. Availability and insurance reimbursement depend on your circumstances.
Can we change finishes or make improvements?
Discuss your preferences before materials are ordered. Additional improvements, their costs and any approvals should be kept distinct from the insured repair scope. Confirm coverage with your insurer before committing.
What should we have ready for the first conversation?
The address, affected rooms, status of cleanup and any photos or scope documents are useful. Share your insurer or adjuster’s details if applicable, along with household needs or access constraints. You can contact us while some details are still being clarified.
