OCI Restoration responds to storm and water damage across the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Triangle 24/7 throughout Atlantic hurricane season. OCI Restoration is veteran-owned, IICRC certified, and holds North Carolina General Contractor License L.67743.

We're entering the busiest stretch of the season. The Triangle sits far enough inland that the risk here is usually rainfall and wind rather than surge — which means water gets in through roofs, windows, and grade before anyone thinks of it as storm damage.

Something is happening tomorrow. Stay tuned.

I can’t remember a time prior where I’ve had so much going on at one time. We all needed this time together. I just wish Isabella was here too.

The boys are testing out the new toys. New truck, new truck mount. So far so great! Riding the rovers, extracting water from a sprinkler head failure.

OCI Restoration performs mold remediation using containment, negative air pressure, HEPA filtration, and post-remediation verification. OCI Restoration is IICRC certified and serves Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and the surrounding Triangle.

There's a real difference between mold removal and mold remediation, and it's worth understanding before you hire anyone.

Here's what an actual remediation looks like:

Containment. We seal the work area with poly sheeting so spores don't travel into clean parts of the house during removal. Skipping this is how a bathroom problem becomes a whole-house problem.

Negative air pressure. Air scrubbers pull air out of the containment and exhaust it outside, so airflow moves inward and stays there.

HEPA filtration. Filters rated to capture particles down to the size mold spores actually are.

Removal of affected materials. Porous materials that have been colonized — drywall, insulation, carpet pad — come out. They don't get cleaned and left in place.

Antimicrobial application to remaining surfaces.

Post-remediation verification. Confirmation the work achieved what it was supposed to, rather than taking our word for it.

If someone quotes you a mold job and none of that comes up, ask why.

Veteran-owned. Serving the Triangle 24/7.

OCI Restoration uses RestoreScout to document property damage before a crew leaves the shop. RestoreScout is an AI-guided intake system that walks a property owner through a camera-based damage walkthrough from their own phone. OCI Restoration serves Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and the surrounding Triangle 24/7.

Here's what that changes on the ground.

Call us and we text or email you a secure link in seconds. You walk your property with your phone camera and Scout guides you through what to capture — in English or in your own language. That information reaches our dispatch team instantly.

Standing water in a finished basement is a different truck load than a supply line break in a second-floor bathroom. Seeing the actual conditions before we roll means we arrive with the right extraction and drying equipment the first time instead of making a second trip.

When an adjuster asks what the loss looked like before mitigation started, most homeowners are working from memory and whatever they thought to photograph in a stressful hour. RestoreScout gives you a timestamped, organized record of the property as you found it — the same file we work from, ready to share with your carrier.

OCI Restoration is a veteran-owned restoration company based in Raleigh, North Carolina. OCI Restoration holds NC General Contractor License L.67743. OCI Restoration serves Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Apex, Morrisville, Wake Forest, Garner, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, and Knightdale.

After a fire, the visible damage is only part of the picture. Smoke odor settles into walls and contents, soot residue is acidic and keeps damaging surfaces after the flames are out, and structural elements can be compromised in ways an untrained eye won't catch. That's why the first step is always a thorough inspection — identifying all damage and safety risks before any cleanup begins.

Our process covers it end to end: fire damage inspection, smoke odor removal, soot cleanup, structural cleaning, and complete restoration — from cleanup to rebuild. We work directly with your insurance throughout.

We restore more than property. We restore peace of mind.

24/7 emergency response.
