There has been an uptick of natural disasters in recent years, and now more than ever are commercial construction owners facing the challenge of all types of damage restoration. Arizona especially is a state that experiences frequent summer thunderstorms as well as wildfires, so having a construction company that you can rely on is very important.
Cline Commercial Construction has the experience and expertise to rebuild your property keeping all the standards that both independent and chain buildings are held to within state law.
Why Is Damage Restoration More Important for Commercial Buildings?
Commercial buildings more than any other construction are vulnerable to all types of damage, particularly fire and water damage. They often have way more plumbing and electrical wiring going inside the walls than a regular residential house.
Not only that but a larger commercial kitchen like the ones necessary for restaurants or student dormitories go under significant duress that elevates the risk of grease fires.
If you add to that the natural conditions that the state of Arizona has, you start to get the picture of why looking for a damage restoration company you can trust is important. Arizona had over 2,000 wildfires only in the year of 2024, meaning that they are a very real possibility when it comes to natural disasters, especially for more rural areas.
The same can be said for flooding or ceiling leakage caused by the heavy summer thunderstorms. Just last year in 2025, the community was devastated by a series of flash floods, which for commercial buildings usually means almost starting over, since state safety standards need to be met for any business to keep open.

Types of Construction Damage Restoration
The main division made when it comes to damage restoration is if it was caused by water or fire. The distinction exists because the origin of the problem determines how the area should be treated and what possible side effects and inspections should be done before the building is deemed ready to go.
💧 Water Damage Restoration
As mentioned before, floods are a common cause for severe water damage, often needing to redo the entire flooring and sometimes even some walls and appliances depending on how high the water reaches.
But other daily issues also need to be fixed to comply with regulations like plumbing and ceiling leaks.
For proper damage restoration, the affected area should go under water extraction, complete drying of the area (dehumidification), the renovation of lost or unusable materials, and finally a reconstruction that brings the building back to its former condition.
🔥 Fire Damage Restoration
In the case of a fire, the damage restoration process takes a more holistic approach so to speak. Whether they are electrical, chemical or mechanical, fires tend to linger on a construction way more than you may originally expect, even if the epicenter is contained.
You will need a team that can clean up everything that the smoke has left it’s trail on, and also clean the smell (it’s doable!) thoroughly so that any trace of the incident is erased. Additional inspections are recommended, especially in the case of electrical fires, to check that the rest of the wiring is not a liability and prevent further problems.
