Our 5-Step Process

D.T. Mistick & Co. uses the latest training, equipment and supplies in our five-step fire and smoke restoration process:

Disaster Recovery Center

Most people think that everything is a loss when a fire occurs. With D.T. Mistick & Co., we are able to salvage many items, including electronic equipment. We have a 7,500-sq.-ft. Disaster Recovery Center (DRC), where the cleaning and restoration of damaged contents are handled with the utmost care. Our team will handle a full pack-out and cleaning of your home's or business's items. This involves detailed inventory marking and documentation, packing and moving. In our DRC, household and commercial items may be cleaned conventionally, in ultrasonic baths or with compressed air systems. Our facility also includes drying and ozone chambers for deodorization of select contents.

CASE STUDY: Fire/Smoke Damage

Lone Star Restaurant

A serious fire at the Lone Star Restaurant at Century III Mall left management facing $350,000 in damages and the potential loss of numerous weeks of business. Yet only 17 days later, the restaurant reopened for business as the result of fast-track disaster recovery by Insurance Restoration Services (now DT Mistick & Co.).

The Lone Star did not miss more than two critical Friday evenings of business because the area's leading disaster recovery company (DT Mistick & Co.) was able to provide the manpower and coordination of services necessary to limit downtime and get the client back in business fast.

Restoration at the Lone Star included gutting the kitchen, rewiring the entire building (kitchen and restaurant seating area), installing new ceilings throughout, repairing structural steel damage, and restoring the exterior's mansard overhang and damaged roof.

The restaurant's manager, who's been in the restaurant business for 25 years, says it was a "small miracle that the site re-opened as quickly as it did." The restoration was "well planned all the way through," he adds, crediting the project management staff with understanding his company's business and operation needs.
