Mitigation to full rebuild, under one roof. No handoffs.
Every job backed by a full year of coverage.
Most restoration companies fix the damage and leave you to deal with the adjuster alone. We don't.
From your first call to your final settlement, Big Wave works directly alongside you through every step of the insurance process — documenting the damage, communicating with your adjuster, and making sure you receive the coverage you're actually owed.
Our clients don't just get their property restored. They get an advocate.
We photograph, measure, and report everything from day one — documentation adjusters need and homeowners rarely know to provide.
We've worked alongside Tampa Bay adjusters for years. We speak their language and present claims that don't get lowballed.
You approve all pricing before work begins. We align our scope with your policy — no gaps, no disputes, no surprises.
Most people have never dealt with property damage before. Here's exactly what to expect.
Day or night, someone picks up. We'll ask a few quick questions about the damage, confirm your location, and dispatch a crew immediately. No hold music, no call centers, no callbacks.
Our technicians arrive on-site within 60 minutes, evaluate the full extent of the damage, and begin emergency mitigation right away — stopping the situation from getting worse while we build your restoration plan.
From water extraction and mold remediation to structural rebuilding, we handle every phase in-house. We keep you informed at every step and coordinate directly with your insurance adjuster so you're never left guessing.

Big Wave Restoration is family owned, locally operated, and built on a simple belief — that people dealing with property disasters deserve better than a corporate hotline and a stranger at their door.
Paul Pfleiderer and Adam Brown spent years working for a large restoration company before walking away to build something different. Both are Tampa Bay locals. Both are married with young children. Both know what it feels like when something goes wrong with your home and you need someone you can actually trust to show up and make it right.
When you call Big Wave, you're not reaching a national franchise or a staffing agency. You're reaching the people whose names are on the door, who built this business from the ground up, and who still show up personally on the jobs that matter most.

If it's water damage, shut off the source if you can safely do so and avoid standing water near electrical outlets. For fire damage, don't enter any structurally compromised area. Otherwise — call us and wait. We'll guide you through the rest when we answer.
Call us first. We'll document everything properly from the moment we arrive, which protects your claim. Calling your insurer before mitigation begins can sometimes complicate the process — we'll help you navigate that conversation at the right time.
No. Even well-intentioned cleanup can destroy documentation your adjuster needs. Don't throw anything away, don't dry anything out, and don't move damaged materials until we've assessed and recorded everything.
No. You approve the full scope and pricing before any work begins. Nothing gets added without your knowledge.
We handle documentation and communicate directly with your adjuster throughout. We've worked alongside Tampa Bay insurers for years and know how to present claims so you receive the coverage you're actually owed.
Yes. Every technician is background-checked, drug-tested, and works under our active Florida state licenses. You'll never have an unknown subcontractor show up unannounced.
Day or night, someone picks up. We're on-site within 60 minutes, anywhere in Tampa Bay.
