Most restoration outfits treat Agoura like just another stop on the map. We don’t. The damage patterns here are different from what you see in flatland suburbs, and if a crew doesn’t understand that, they’ll miss what’s actually wrong with your house. We’ve been through enough Agoura homes to know where the problems hide. And we document everything with photos, moisture readings, and a written report your adjuster can actually use.
Why Wade’s Restoration of California Is Agoura’s Preferred Reconstruction & Cleanup Company
Wade Ferris founded this company in 2007 and put his own name on the truck. His phone number is published, his address is published, and he answers his own calls 24 hours a day. In Agoura, that kind of accountability matters. When a crew shows up at your house off Kanan Road or in the oak canyons north of the 101, you want to know the person responsible for the work will still be reachable after the job is done.
Our Reconstruction & Cleanup team has worked homes throughout Agoura, from the hillside custom builds off Cornell Road to the 1970s tract homes near Liberty Canyon. We know what these houses are made of and what fails in them. Stucco over wood frame hides moisture for weeks. Return-air intakes pull ash deep into HVAC systems. And when you call, we show up fast. Wade heads out as soon as you hang up, and he brings the right equipment the first time.
Every water, fire, and mold restoration job we do in Agoura carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise, stamped in writing. If it’s not done right, Wade makes it right. One call brings him back. That’s not marketing language. That’s the way he’s run this company for nearly two decades, and it’s why homeowners in Agoura keep his number in their phones.
Our Reconstruction & Cleanup Services in Agoura
Full-Service Reconstruction
When fire damage or water intrusion in Agoura goes past what cleaning can fix, you need rebuild work done right. We handle everything from studs-out tear-outs to finish carpentry on custom trim. In homes that took smoke damage from the Woolsey Fire, the rebuild only works if the hidden contamination is addressed first. We remove damaged drywall, treat cavities with odor-sealing primer, and rebuild to match the original finish. Custom wood trim, built-ins, hand-troweled walls – we match them so the repair doesn’t look like a patch job.
Drywall & Flooring Repair
Agoura’s older homes, especially the 1970s and 80s wood-frame builds, trap moisture behind stucco and under flooring in ways that surprise homeowners. A wall can look dry on the surface while the cavity behind it is soaked. We pull affected drywall, dry the framing with professional-grade Dri-Eaz and Phoenix equipment, and replace flooring with materials that match what was there. If firefighting water got under your subfloor, that’s not a dry-and-forget situation. We address it correctly the first time.
Contents Restoration & Pack-Out
Smoke and ash don’t just damage the house. They get into furniture, clothing, rugs, and the things you actually care about. We pack out contents from Agoura homes, inventory everything in writing, and clean or restore items off-site. Custom furnishings, family photos, heirloom rugs – after a fire, these aren’t always a loss. Our contents restoration brings back more than most homeowners expect. And because we document the pack-out with photos and itemized lists, your insurance claim stays clean and defensible.
Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning
After a wildfire or a smoke event, standard carpet cleaning won’t cut it. Ash particulates work deep into fibers, and if you hit them with generic extraction methods, you can set the stains permanently and push contaminants further in. We use specialized ash-particulate extraction on carpets and upholstery in Agoura homes, pulling out what ordinary methods leave behind. If the contamination is too deep, we’ll tell you honestly rather than charge you to clean something that needs replacing.

We work on all makes and models of carpet, flooring, drywall systems, and structural assemblies found in Agoura homes. If you’ve got materials from any major manufacturer, our crew has handled them, and we stock common local parts so we’re not waiting on a supplier when you need work finished. Our team carries IICRC certification and follows RIA standards, and our equipment includes professional-grade Dri-Eaz and Phoenix drying systems, Injectidry for hard-to-reach cavities, and XPOWER and B-Air air movers. You don’t need to know what those brands do. You just need to know we bring them to every Agoura job, not a rented box-store blower and a prayer.
Common Reconstruction & Cleanup Problems We See in Agoura Homes
- Hidden smoke residue behind finished walls. Homes north of the 101 in the oak canyons often showed zero visible char after the Woolsey Fire, but the smoke still worked into wall cavities, attic insulation, and HVAC ducts. If you just repaint and recarpet, the smell comes back in weeks.
- Stucco masking moisture from firefighting water. Agoura’s dominant stock is 1970s-1990s wood-frame stucco. That stucco hides water intrusion for weeks until you get mold, rot, or both. We open up suspect walls and dry them properly with moisture readings logged every day.
- Post-fire debris flow mud in crawlspaces and subfloors. After the burn scar exposed those hillsides, the first Pacific rains pushed ash-laden mud into foundations that survived the fire completely intact. That mud carries contaminants and holds moisture, and if you ignore it, you get structural rot months later.
- Recurring smoke odor after cosmetic repairs are done. We see this constantly in Agoura. A homeowner pays for new drywall and paint, then the smell returns because no one addressed the blower wheel, the insulation, and the return-air ducts. We run IAQ testing before we rebuild so the fix actually sticks.

FAQs - Reconstruction & Cleanup in Agoura
We run full IAQ testing in Agoura homes, including surface swabs, air sampling, and inspection of HVAC return ducts, blower wheels, and attic insulation. Homes north of the 101 that looked perfectly clean after the Woolsey Fire still tested positive for ash and smoke particulates because the burn zone was within a half-mile for days and return-air intakes pulled contaminated air continuously. We photograph everything and hand you the full report: moisture logs, IAQ results, and itemized findings. Your adjuster gets the same documentation. Call (855) 915-0646 for an independent assessment, and remember we offer a free second opinion on any written estimate.
Post-fire debris flow cleanup in Agoura requires excavating contaminated mud from crawlspaces and subfloor areas, removing affected insulation and vapor barriers, treating for mold and bacteria, and rebuilding with new materials once the area is dry and sanitized. The mud that comes down those denuded hillsides carries ash, carbonized material, and biological contaminants that don’t belong under your house. We handle the full sequence: removal, drying, sanitizing, and reconstruction with documented moisture readings throughout.
In most Agoura homes, yes. Custom wood furniture, upholstered pieces, and area rugs with smoke exposure can often be restored with specialized cleaning, ozone or hydroxyl treatment, and refinishing. The key is acting before the particulates set into fibers and finishes. Our pack-out process gets your contents out of the damaged environment quickly, inventories them in writing, and treats each item appropriately. Give Wade a call at (855) 915-0646 and he’ll tell you honestly what can be saved and what can’t, before you commit to anything.
Because the smoke worked its way into places you can’t see: wall cavities, attic insulation, return-air ducts, and the HVAC blower assembly. In Agoura homes that sat within the Woolsey burn corridor for days, contaminated air was pulled continuously through return intakes, coating duct interiors and insulation with ash. Until that contamination is removed and the cavities are sealed, the smell will return no matter how much you clean the surfaces. We open the plenum, inspect the blower wheel, test insulation, and fix the actual source.
We open suspect walls, dry the framing with professional-grade equipment, and rebuild with odor-sealing primer and matched finishes. Stucco over wood frame is great at hiding moisture for weeks, which is why we log moisture readings every day from start to finish. In a hillside custom home off Cornell Road, our crew found water behind pristine-looking stucco that had been there since firefighting operations, soaking the frame and breeding mold inside the cavity. We dried it, replaced the contaminated insulation, and rebuilt the wall so you’d never know we were there. That’s the work this trade demands, and it’s work we do in Agoura every season.
