Fire damage restoration in Matthews covers historic homes and storefronts near Trade Street, established neighborhoods and newer subdivisions toward Mint Hill and Union County: same-night securing, water extraction, residue testing, careful cleaning of original materials, odor removal and rebuilds. Crews come from our Charlotte service office and calls are answered 24/7.
Matthews grew around its downtown on Trade Street, where storefronts and houses from the late 1800s still stand beside the railroad tracks. Around that core are neighborhoods built through the 1970s, 80s and 90s as Charlotte spread east, and newer subdivisions toward Mint Hill, Stallings and Union County.
That range means a Matthews fire could be in a 140-year-old house with original plaster and heart pine, or a 1990s two-story with an attached garage and vinyl siding, and the plan is different for each.

Questions from Matthews callers
Usually. Original plaster, trim and floors clean well when the residue is tested first and the work is done by hand.
Yes. We document each business separately and work to reopen as soon as it is safe.
Faster smoke spread through open rooms and the attic, and finishes that are usually easy to match in the rebuild.
Yes, the subdivisions toward Stallings and into Union County too.
Yes. Water that runs through the floor collects underneath, so we check and dry the crawlspace as part of the job.
Yes. Crestdale is one of the oldest African American neighborhoods in North Carolina, and its older homes get the same careful, tested cleaning as the rest of historic Matthews.
