What Is the Difference Between Reconstruction and Restoration?

Disasters such as severe storms, floods or fires can wreak havoc on your home or business. After water damage, fire damage or storm damage, you may need extensive repairs to return your property to its original condition. Both restoration and reconstruction can be important components of the process used to repair your home or business. Depending on the specific nature of the damage you’ve sustained, you may require restoration work, reconstruction or both.

What Is Disaster Restoration?

Restoration focuses on returning your property to its pre-damaged condition. It involves a variety of processes, including:

  • Repairing existing materials and structures
  • Cleaning and disinfecting
  • Eliminating odors
  • Restoring the contents of your home or business

What Are the Different Types of Disaster Restoration Services?

Disaster restoration encompasses a wide range of services, including:

  • Water Damage Restoration – Water damage restoration is performed to remove standing water and dry out your property after flooding or other water damage. Additional repairs will also be made to restore structures to their pre-damaged condition.
  • Fire Damage Restoration – Fire damage restoration is performed to clean up and repair damage to your property after a fire. This can include removing smoke odors and soot residues, restoring the contents of your property, and making additional repairs.
  • Storm and Flood Damage Restoration – Severe storms and floods can cause extensive damage to your property. Storm and flood damage restoration is performed to decontaminate and clean affected areas, repair damage caused by the storm and remove debris from your property.
  • Mold Remediation – Anytime you experience water damage, mold growth is likely to follow. Mold remediation is performed to address the conditions causing mold, eliminate existing mold and prevent regrowth.

What Is Reconstruction After a Disaster?

Reconstruction is often part of the restoration process and involves rebuilding or replacing severely damaged structures with new materials. It is typically required when significant parts of the building structure have been destroyed or are missing, requiring them to be rebuilt entirely. After reconstruction, your home or business will be made whole again, allowing it to be safe to inhabit. However, many of the older structures will have been replaced with new construction.

Factors Impacting the Decision Between Restoration and Reconstruction

While there are many instances where both restoration and reconstruction will be part of the process involved in repairing your property, there are other times when you may want to focus on one of these services. Some of the factors impacting whether to choose restoration or reconstruction include:

  • Historical Significance – Buildings with significant historical relevance may be better suited for restoration to preserve the original state of the building, allowing you to maintain its historical aspects.
  • Current Condition – The existing condition of the building will often dictate whether restoration or reconstruction is required. If there is severe damage to the building, reconstruction may be required to restore its form and function. However, if the building is largely intact, restoration may be sufficient to restore your property to its original state.
  • Compliance with Building Codes – Older buildings that don’t conform to modern building codes may require reconstruction to comply with current codes and regulations.
  • Safety Considerations – If structural elements of a building have been significantly damaged, reconstruction may be necessary to ensure the building is safe to inhabit moving forward.
  • Budget – While restoration and reconstruction work after a disaster is typically covered by insurance, the terms of your policy will dictate the specifics of your benefits. If cost becomes a consideration, restoration will often provide a more cost-effective solution.
