PORTLAND, Ore. and VANCOUVER, Wash.: When water, fire, mold, or storm damage turns life upside down, property owners across the Portland and Vancouver metro area turn to Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver, one of the region’s largest and most well-equipped restoration companies. With nearly two decades of experience, more than 160 trained team members, and over 100 vehicles, the locally owned firm provides a comprehensive full-service solution that guides customers from the initial emergency call through to complete reconstruction.

A True Full-Service Restoration Partner

Unlike many contractors that handle only one part of a loss, Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver manages the entire process under one roof. The company’s IICRC certified specialists are on call 24/7 to provide rapid mitigation and dry-out services, followed by in-house abatement, contents cleaning, and storage for textiles, electronics, furniture, and hard goods, and finally full reconstruction.

With more than 100,000 square feet of warehouse and contents processing space, dedicated reconstruction teams, and a large vehicle fleet, the company can scale quickly to meet everything from a single-family home emergency to a multi-floor commercial loss. That scope allows for customers to work with one coordinated team instead of juggling multiple vendors, which can reduce delays and help families and businesses return to normal more quickly.

People, Principles, and Professionalism

Leadership at Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver describes the company’s three “uniques” as its people, its principles, and its professionalism. The firm hires and develops great people, then equips them with industry-leading training, tools, and technology so they can strive to deliver best-in-class results in the field.

Professionalism shows up in the way jobs are managed day to day. The team provides daily reports during mitigation and weekly updates during reconstruction, along with regular job progress reviews that help keep projects moving and keep customers informed. The company also backs its work with a two-year warranty, and leadership is known for standing behind the commitment that they will get it right or make it right, even years after a project is complete.

Fast Response When Every Minute Counts

When pipes burst in the middle of the night or a sprinkler line ruptures at a school that needs to open the next morning, speed matters. Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver operates two shifts per day, seven days a week, with additional on-call teams ready to deploy at any hour. For large losses, the company can quickly mobilize crews of 20 people or more to triage the situation, begin drying, and stabilize the structure.

Customers regularly highlight that responsiveness. “At a time when you are feeling frustrated and vulnerable, Paul Davis comes to the rescue. These guys are fast and professional. And their cleanup is excellent. I highly recommend them,” wrote Portland area homeowner Eileen Haas after experiencing a loss in her home.

Another customer, Claudia Byrne, shared that her family had active water damage in their living room and that the Paul Davis team came out quickly, kept them informed before every visit, and worked closely with their insurance company. She noted that the crew was extremely prompt and professional and that they “really exceeded expectations” on the repairs, even matching existing paint colors as closely as possible.

Guiding Homeowners and Businesses Through Insurance Claims

Navigating an insurance claim is often one of the most stressful parts of a property loss. Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver manages insurance claims every day and uses industry-standard estimating software such as Xactimate and T&M Pro to help facilitate fair, accurate scopes of work.

That experience shows in feedback from local customers. “We enjoyed an amazing experience with Paul Davis Restoration. They were very professional, great communicators, and provided a level of service that exceeded our expectations. We felt that they were on our side, looking out for our best interests in dealing with our insurance company,” wrote Sue Ann and Steven Barton in a recent review.

By restoring whenever possible and replacing only when necessary, the team aims to save both time and money for property owners and insurers, all while focusing on high-quality craftsmanship.

Serving Commercial Clients With Dedicated Teams

For commercial and institutional clients, Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver offers dedicated project teams that become an extension of the customer’s staff. The same project managers handle both mitigation and reconstruction for those accounts, supported by consistent customer service and estimating teams that understand each client’s facilities and priorities.

This continuity helps large property portfolios, schools, medical offices, and other commercial clients get back to business faster after an interruption. It also supports a partnership approach where Paul Davis can help clients plan ahead for emergencies, strengthen response plans, and potentially reduce overall risk.

Rooted in the Community

Although the company is known for its scale and technical expertise, Paul Davis Restoration of Portland/Vancouver still operates like a people-first, family-owned business. Its fifth core value is “Have Fun on Purpose,” and many customer reviews describe technicians and project managers as personable, caring, and respectful.

The team is also deeply involved in the community, supporting organizations such as the Red Cross, Rebuilding Together, A Caring Closet, Coats for Kids, and the Vancouver Food Bank, among others. That commitment to service carries through to how the company treats customers during what is often one of the most challenging times in their lives.
