When a major electrical fire struck their home, the Blackwells knew just who to call – the professionals at American Restoration Water & Fire, LLC. After the fire was put out, our technicians put up temporary plywood boards over the doors and windows to protect the property until it was ready to be reconstructed. The Pack In & Pack Out team gathered the salvageable contents of the home and placed them safely in storage. Any item that had incurred smoke damage had to be specially cleaned.
The Certified Technicians and Team Members at American Restoration want to commend one of our top performers, Luis. Luis was hired in January of 2015 as a laborer in our Pack In & Pack Out department. He is responsible for cleaning clients’ homes and packing their up belongings for safe keeping while their water or fire damaged home can be assessed and recovered. Luis has since been promoted to one of our lead Water and Fire technicians.
The United States Fire Administration states that you should absolutely not re-enter your home or business until the fire department specifically says that it’s safe to do so. Fires can start again, even if they appear to be put out.
Your home represents security and piece of mind. We get that — we are in this business because care about you, your family, and your home. At the time of an incident, American Restoration, Water and Fire, LLC takes the time to go over all the information to help you put your life back together.
You’ve probably hear of El Niño—but what is it? El Niño refers to a series of irregular weather patterns along the earth’s equator, primarily affecting Pacific weather patterns, caused by a significant change in water temperature.
Are you ready for heavy rains? The New Mexico Monsoon Season is upon us and threatens to bring us heavy rain, dangerous flooding, and possible damage to homes and businesses.
How do you know if your home, office, basement or other structure has mold and if it’s serious enough that it needs to be removed, a process known as “remediation”?
In New Mexico, we don’t have nearly the amount of rainfall and humid climate that is known to set the stage for mold growth. But since our moisture tends to fall in our monsoon season during the summer, that moisture often catches property owners off guard.
In July of 2014, New Mexico residents got some much needed rain! Many of us, however, were unprepared for the record rainfall that covered the State and the Albuquerque Metro area.
On Wednesday, July 23rd Algodones, New Mexico was hit with heavy rains, damaging winds, and flash flooding. Over an inch an hour. Torrential local rain and heavy rains to the north caused the water to move into irrigation ditches, and the flooding began.
Watch out New Mexico — cooler temperatures are only a month away, but many experts say that a phenomenon called, the “Polar Vortex” may add to the chill in September and October!

When experienced a flood, fire, or other disaster, it is hard to deal with the chaos and overwhelming emotion of putting everything back in its place, let alone think about all of the unseen dangers, like the hazard of asbestos. Luckily, American Restoration has just the man to reinstate order in your home or work place.
What if we told you there is a room in your house where surface temperatures regularly reach well over 100 degrees? A room with open flames where disaster could strike at any time if you don’t exercise the proper caution? Who would have thought the kitchen could be so dangerous?
American Restoration’s Project Manager, Drew Garcia, has been enjoying the crisp October mornings from the sky high vantage of the Buzzards Roost hot air balloon.
unless you live on a mountain top where the land slopes dramatically away from the foundation of your home, your home is at risk of flooding. Flooding is the most common natural disaster in the United States, causinG approximately 2.7 billion dollars in losses annually. In New Mexico, with our summer monsoon season, we receive half of our annual rainfall during a few short months, putting our homes at even higher risk of flooding. Yet, here at American Restoration we have some good news for you - there are preventive measures you can take to ensure that you will not suffer the damage of flooding.
