ABOUT BCG DISASTER RECOVERY

At BCG we pride ourselves in helping others in life’s critical moments. Disaster recovery teams play a crucial role in responding to the aftermath of natural disasters, including floods, fires, and storms. Their primary objective is to provide immediate assistance to affected communities, addressing multiple facets of recovery and restoration.

In the case of flooding, teams assess the damage, remove debris, and begin restoration efforts to restore access to homes and businesses. For fire-related incidents, disaster recovery teams work to mitigate further damage, secure the site, and start rebuilding, implementing fire-resistant materials wherever applicable. Storm recovery often involves clearing roadways, repairing utilities, and restoring infrastructure to ensure the safety of the community.

At Building Construction Group (BCG), we recognize the urgency and complexity of disaster recovery. We provide 24/7 emergency services for natural disasters, local fire, flood, and storm damage. Our experienced team is prepared to assist with immediate needs and guide clients through the recovery process, ensuring that both infrastructure and community needs are met efficiently and effectively.

“Todd is a professional and flexible manager who was able to work closely with AMEC to ensure stream corridor designs, many of which had to be field-fit and adapted due to the fast-pace and trying circumstances of this flood recovery project, were constructed to a high standard. Todd’s team had the mechanical firepower and skilled operators to enable them to achieve complex designs in the river channel and on the floodplain”

1000 year flood recovery Project

Following the devastating 2013 Historic 1000-year flood, which had a significant impact on Jamestown, Colorado, Todd was the first contractor assigned a government award to assist in the restoration of Boulder County. In the aftermath of the disaster, which resulted in loss of life and extensive destruction of homes and infrastructure, Todd played a crucial role in the recovery process. He effectively collaborated with local authorities and communities to develop new guidelines, means, and methods that shaped what transformed into a comprehensive six-year recovery effort.

During this period, Todd's contributions were instrumental in establishing standards for restoration that not only addressed immediate needs but also focused on long-term resilience.

This proactive approach is essential in preventing future deterioration, allowing communities like Jamestown to honor their heritage while rebuilding for the future. Todd's leadership and vision have established a foundation for ongoing restoration efforts throughout Boulder County, demonstrating the vital role that dedicated contractors can play in community recovery.

HYATT PLACE

INTERIOR FLOOD RESTORATION PROJECT

During a challenging scenario involving a severe flood at the Hyatt Place, Building Construction Group (BCG) was called upon to provide prompt and effective restoration services. With the flood affecting all seven floors of the hotel, Todd's crews quickly mobilized to address the extensive damage.

Within just two weeks, BCG successfully restored 40 rooms, seven floors of hallways, and the main lobby. The project encompassed a series of critical services including water remediation to remove moisture, drying procedures to ensure an adequate environment for repair, and the replacement of drywall to restore structural integrity. Additionally, crews undertook repainting efforts and ceiling repairs to bring the affected areas back to their original condition.

Recognizing the urgency of returning the hotel to operational status—since hotels rely on maintaining occupancy for profitability—BCG's swift intervention proved invaluable. The restoration work was completed efficiently, allowing Hyatt Place to resume normal operations and return heads to beds in record time.

“Our gratitude goes out to Todd and his entire workforce who worked around the clock for days to get our hotel back to normal with heads in beds! The damage control he delivered and the ease at which he responded to the terrible water damage on all of our floors was nothing short of a miracle. With 17 years of hotel management experience I have not experienced such great communication or quality of work. With great gratitude.

TOWNHOUSE FIRE RECOVERY

Todd's Construction Fire and Emergency Water Services (CFEWS) teams were at the forefront of the rapid response following the devastating fire that affected multiple townhomes. Responding quickly to make-safe the area, Todd's crews utilized their extensive experience and training to stabilize the structures and assess the damage. Their prompt actions not only ensured the safety of the site but also provided a foundation for the next steps in the rebuilding process.

Collaboration was key in this situation. Todd coordinated with Interstate Restoration and the insurance agency to create a comprehensive cost estimate and outline a detailed rebuild plan. This strategic partnership was essential in moving forward and addressing the complex challenges presented by the fire-damaged properties.

Within three months, Todd's crews worked tirelessly to carefully dismantle the charred elements and rehabilitate the townhomes. Their expertise enabled them to efficiently rebuild the structural walls, roof trusses, and meet the demands of the interior build-out, from framing to finishing touches. Their commitment to quality and efficiency meant that homeowners could return to their newly remodeled homes in just 4.5 months.

This dedication not only underscored Todd's capabilities as a contractor but also highlighted the importance of rapid and effective responses in the aftermath of a disaster, ensuring that communities could recover and rebuild stronger than before..
