Reconstruction in Gresham, OR: what we see locally

Gresham is east of Portland, with around 113,000 residents. The city has a mix of older single-family homes (1950s–70s suburbs), multi-family housing in higher-density areas, and newer construction on the east edge near Powell Valley.

Gresham housing is generally working/middle class with more value-conscious homeowners; restoration scenarios skew toward standard residential damage with insurance-focused customers.

The city is on separated sewer/stormwater in most areas. Older neighborhoods near downtown have aging infrastructure that produces typical burst-pipe and root-intrusion sewer scenarios.

Typical reconstruction scenario in Gresham: Gresham reconstruction is mid-range residential — practical finishes, cost-conscious customers, standard match-existing work. Multi-family reconstruction also common given the housing mix.

When reconstruction is part of your job

Reconstruction follows almost every significant restoration. Here's what's involved.

  • Drywall replacement

    Wet, fire-damaged, or mold-affected drywall is removed during mitigation and replaced during reconstruction. We tape, mud, prime, and paint to match existing finish.

  • Flooring replacement

    Hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile, or carpet — we replace what was removed and match adjacent areas. For partial replacements, we color-match where possible.

  • Paint matching

    Matching existing paint requires the right primer, color science, and lighting evaluation. We don't just 'paint the wall' — we match what was there and feather into adjacent surfaces.

  • Cabinetry restoration

    Water-damaged or smoke-affected cabinetry is sometimes salvageable, sometimes not. We assess each cabinet, restore what's saveable, and rebuild what isn't.

  • Trim, baseboards, and finish work

    Baseboards and trim are typically removed during mitigation. We re-install matching profiles and refinish to match the existing.

  • Framing repair

    Major water, fire, or storm damage sometimes requires structural framing repair. As a licensed GC, we handle framing as part of reconstruction without coordinating a separate carpenter.

What happens when you call

Our reconstruction process in Gresham

Reconstruction starts when mitigation is complete and structural drying is verified. We pick up where mitigation left off, with the same crew, same timeline, same insurance billing.

  1. Day 1 of reconstruction

    Scope confirmation and material selection

    We walk the property with you, confirm the scope of work, and finalize material selections. Insurance-covered work uses 'like kind and quality' materials matching what was there. Upgrades are documented separately if you want to invest in improvements during the rebuild.

  2. Days 1–3

    Framing and rough-in repair

    If framing was damaged or removed, we rebuild it now. Sub-flooring repair, joist or rafter replacement where needed. Rough plumbing or electrical reconnection coordinated with relevant trades.

  3. Days 2–5

    Drywall installation

    New drywall installed, taped, mudded, sanded smooth. Multiple coats of mud with sanding between to produce a finish that doesn't show seams.

  4. Days 4–7

    Paint and primer

    Primer first to lock in the new drywall and prevent flashing. Then color-matched paint feathered into adjacent surfaces. We test the color match in the actual room lighting before committing to whole-room application.

  5. Days 5–10

    Flooring installation

    Replacement flooring installed and matched to adjacent areas. For hardwood replacements, we sand and refinish to match aging characteristics of the original.

  6. Days 7–12

    Trim, baseboards, and finish

    Baseboards re-installed and finished. Trim matched. Cabinetry installed or restored. Outlets, switches, and registers reinstalled.

  7. Final day

    Walkthrough and punch list

    We walk the property with you. Anything that doesn't match expectations gets fixed before final closeout. Insurance documentation submitted, payment confirmed.

What makes TIK different for reconstruction

  • 01

    Same crew through restoration and rebuild

    The crew that handled your water extraction or fire cleanup also handles the rebuild. They've already documented the existing finishes, know the home, and don't need to be re-introduced to a project that's already underway.

  • 02

    Licensed GC in WA + OR

    We're a licensed general contractor (WA #TIKCOCI815RW · OR #229356), not a restoration company subcontracting the rebuild. Reconstruction is a core competency, not a referral.

  • 03

    Match-existing as default

    Insurance work uses 'like kind and quality' as the standard. We match existing finishes by default — same flooring, same paint sheen, same trim profile. Upgrades are an option, not a hidden change order.

  • 04

    One warranty on the finished work

    When restoration and reconstruction are split between two companies, warranty disputes get messy. With us, the same company stands behind the entire scope of work.

Real reviews

What Gresham customers say about TIK

5★ average from 50+ verified Google reviews

  • "After having a pipe burst in our rental home, TIK Construction and Restoration has done a phenomenal job mitigating the damage and communicating with us every step of the way. Elmer, their mitigation manager, has been especially thorough and precise to prevent any lasting damage to the home, and has been very thoughtful of protecting our belongings during this process. Isaac, another very nice gentleman and their director of operations, gave us a clear picture of what the whole process would look like and thoughtfully informed us of our options with our renter's insurance."

  • "TIK Construction and Restoration did an amazing job restoring our home after a flood caused by a burst pipe upstairs. From start to finish, their team was professional, communicative, and easy to work with. They kept us informed throughout the entire process, answered all of our questions, and made what could have been a very stressful situation much smoother. The quality of their work really stood out—everything was done with attention to detail and care."

  • "We had to reconstruct our master bathroom after significant water damage—which happened during a bit of a chaotic time in our lives. TIK came through for us with quality customer service and construction. The new bathroom floors and vanity look great, and the crews were super helpful and responsive to our requests and questions. They went above and beyond. Highly recommend!"

  • "We called TIK when we woke up (on a weekend!) to a major leak in our living room from the upstairs tub. Elmer mobilized right away and got to us within a couple hours to begin the water mitigation. He is now helping us communicate with our insurance representative and take the next steps in the water restoration. We appreciate all the help we've gotten from TIK during this difficult event!"

  • "When any company owner has a goal such as that, that means they seek to do such a good job they can put their name to it. It also means he is looking to improve in any area that needs it. Being open to and asking 'is there anything I can improve on' means one is secure enough in who they are, open to suggestions and truly seeks to be the best out there. I recommend his company to anyone needing work on their home done. Restoration, Remodels, he can help you."

Reconstruction FAQs — Gresham, OR

How does TIK serve Gresham vs. closer-in Portland?

We serve all of Gresham with the same service standards as the rest of our area, dispatching via I-205 the moment you call. We've handled jobs throughout Gresham including Centennial, Rockwood, and out toward Powell Valley.

Why not just hire a separate general contractor for the rebuild?

You can — many people do. But that means coordinating two companies, two timelines, two billing relationships with insurance, and two warranty surfaces during a stressful recovery. Our customers tell us a single point of accountability is one of the biggest reasons they chose TIK.

Can I upgrade materials during the rebuild?

Yes. Insurance covers 'like kind and quality' replacement, but if you've been wanting to upgrade flooring or finishes, the rebuild is a natural moment. We document the insurance-covered scope separately from any upgrades you're paying for, so the lines stay clean.

How long does reconstruction take?

Most residential reconstructions take 1–4 weeks depending on scope. Single-room rebuilds: 1–2 weeks. Multi-room or whole-floor rebuilds: 3–6 weeks. Major structural rebuilds: 6+ weeks. We give an honest estimate after the mitigation phase is complete.

Will the rebuild match my existing finishes?

Yes — that's the standard. We use 'like kind and quality' materials and match paint colors, flooring patterns, and trim profiles. For partial floor replacements where exact-match material isn't available, we discuss options upfront.

What's covered by insurance during reconstruction?

Restoring the property to pre-damage condition is covered (assuming the underlying claim is covered). Materials, labor, and overhead/profit are itemized in the scope and submitted to the carrier. Upgrades are not covered — those are documented separately if you choose them.

Do you offer a warranty on reconstruction?

Yes. We warranty our reconstruction work for the period required by Washington and Oregon contractor law plus our own additional terms. Warranty information is included in your final paperwork.

One company. Start to finish. No second contractor.

Mitigation through finished rebuild — under one roof, with one warranty. Serving Gresham, OR and the surrounding area.
