To usher in the new year, Coastal Reconstruction Group, an emergency and disaster general contractor, made a resolution: to transform its web site and marketing materials.
“Other than the collateral materials, the company will remain unchanged – continuing to be the ‘calm after the storm’ for its many apartment and property management clients,” said Ben Zeigler, account executive for Coastal Reconstruction Group. “As always, our family-owned business is ready to assist current and new clients at the drop of a hat – and to help them overcome any disaster-related remediation.”

As part of Coastal’s new look, the web site was redesigned to improve customer navigation, new brochures were created and the logo was revised to echo the updated image. The company also altered its name from the previous incarnation, Coastal Reconstruction, Inc. to Coastal Reconstruction Group. Steering away from the dramatic colors used in previous materials, Coastal’s new image uses a more soothing palette that is well-suited to a company that strives to be a calming resource for property owners and managers in times of stress.
“As disaster contractors, we are the go-to resource when a client’s building or facility sustains damage,” said Zeigler. “This redesign better illustrates who we are: ‘the calm after the storm.’”

About Coastal Reconstruction
Coastal was founded by Don Brewer and O.W. McCurdy in 1986. Since then, the Jacksonville-based general contractor has grown significantly. What began with the rebuilding of an apartment complex – devastated by a 1986 Christmas Eve fire – has transformed into a family-owned and operated business with an exceptional industry reputation. Now, more than 20 years later, the third-generation company has four offices throughout Florida and provides disaster repair services to clients in nearly 20 states.
Licensed as a general contractor in Florida, Coastal offers remodeling and disaster reconstruction services for both residential and commercial projects. In addition to Florida, the company also operates as a disaster contractor in 19 states. Discovery and disaster planning resources are available as well.

About Rapid Response
Disaster can strike at any time – creating wind, water and fire damage that can lead to mold and other costly repairs. For those situations, Coastal Reconstruction Group offers Rapid Response, a cost-free program that assists property owners and managers of apartment communities in pre-disaster planning. Rapid Response provides 24-hour “priority status, guaranteeing that Coastal will arrive within four hours of an emergency call. As one of the company’s most popular programs, Rapid Response is cost-free because Coastal is reimbursed under the client’s insurance policy.
When crews arrive onsite, they take immediate measures (such as boarding up windows, removing debris and helping to restore utility service) to mitigate unnecessary property damage – regardless of the magnitude of the loss. For example, if mold appears to be an issue, the team begins eradicating water damage using dehumidifiers and dryers. Within five days of the initial walk-through, plans are drafted for structural repair, if needed, and the owner is given a detailed scope of work. From there, Coastal Reconstruction Group representatives meet with the insurance adjuster to help settle the claim and restore the property to its previous or better condition.

“During high stress situations, like fires and flooding, it is our job to ease the recovery process,” Zeigler adds. “Everything we do is geared to getting our clients ‘back to business’ as soon as possible.”
