From Disaster to Done: One Team to Help Put Your Property Back Together

When a pipe bursts, a storm causes damage, or a fire affects your home or business, the visible damage is just the beginning.

There’s water to remove. Materials to dry. Damage to assess. Insurance calls to make. Repairs to coordinate. Contractors to schedule. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, you just want your property—and your life—to get back to normal as quickly as possible.

That’s the idea behind our partnership with ServiceMaster by Ayotte.

Two Different Jobs & One Connected Process

Recovering from property damage typically happens in two major stages:

  1. Mitigation and restoration

  2. Reconstruction.

The ServiceMaster by Ayotte team are certified experts in the first stage. They respond immediately (24/7) after water, fire, storm, mold, or other property damage to help stop further damage, clean up the affected area, and begin the restoration process.

And who puts it all back together? That’s where ProBuilt comes in. Once the affected area is ready for reconstruction, our team can repair and rebuild the damaged portions of the property—from roofing, siding, and windows to interior reconstruction and other repairs needed to make the space whole again. 

Instead of treating cleanup and rebuilding as two completely unrelated projects, our teams work together to help create a smoother transition from one phase to the next.

What Does “Disaster to Done” Look Like?

Imagine a summer storm damages your roof and allows water into your home. The immediate concern is the water. Where is it coming from? How far has it traveled? What needs to be removed or dried to prevent additional damage? ServiceMaster by Ayotte handles that critical MITIGATION work.

But removing damaged drywall, insulation, flooring, or other materials doesn’t make the house whole again. The roof may still need repair or replacement. Walls may need to be rebuilt. Siding, windows, trim, or finishes may need attention. That’s the RECONSTRUCTION side of the process—and that’s where ProBuilt takes over.

The same concept applies after a fire, plumbing failure, flooding or other unexpected property loss.

Why the Partnership Matters

Anyone who has dealt with a significant property loss knows how quickly it can become overwhelming. You may find yourself communicating with an insurance company, mitigation specialists, contractors, suppliers, and other professionals—all while dealing with the disruption of having part of your home or business unusable.

Having restoration and reconstruction teams that already know how to work together can help simplify the process. It means better continuity between the cleanup and rebuilding stages. It means fewer questions about what happens next. And it means working with two experienced local companies that understand this community and will still be here long after the project is finished.

Not Just Homes

Property damage doesn’t only happen at home. A burst pipe in an apartment building, water intrusion at an office, storm damage to a commercial roof or a fire at a business can create an entirely different level of disruption. For commercial property owners and property managers, getting back to normal quickly can be especially important. Tenants may be displaced. Employees may not be able to work. Customers may not be able to access the building.

The ServiceMaster by Ayotte and ProBuilt partnership provides a local resource for both sides of that recovery process—from the initial response through reconstruction.

Local Matters - Especially When the Unexpected Happens

When disaster strikes, you’re often making important decisions quickly. That’s not the ideal time to start searching for contractors you know nothing about.

ProBuilt Construction and ServiceMaster by Ayotte are both established local companies serving southern Minnesota. Our teams live and work in the communities we serve, and our reputations depend on how we take care of our neighbors.

That local connection matters most when a project may take weeks or months to fully resolve. We’re not coming into town because there was a storm. We’re already here.

From Disaster to Done

No one plans for a pipe to burst, a tree to hit the roof, or a fire to damage their property. But you can know who to call when it happens.

Through our partnership with ServiceMaster by Ayotte, ProBuilt is helping make the road from unexpected property damage to a finished reconstruction a little easier to navigate. 

From the first response to the final repair: Disaster. Restoration. Reconstruction. Done.
