Insurance Restoration & Catastrophe Response
When Disaster Hits, Make Us Your First Call
KneppKraft is a licensed contractor doing fire, water, flood, storm, and earthquake restoration, with Xactimate® estimating, emergency response, and disaster experience that runs from the 1994 Northridge earthquake to Hurricanes Katrina & Rita.
We guide you from the loss through to a finished rebuild.
KneppKraft has worked the property-loss industry since the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and our teams have responded to disasters nationwide, from the Nisqually earthquake in Seattle to Hurricane Katrina & Rita relief in Louisiana, consulting on commercial losses. We document the damage the way an insurance claim needs it and use Xactimate® for accurate, insurance-approved estimates, which also means we can advocate for a fair, complete settlement, not a lowballed one.
For structural losses, our in-house structural and concrete repair capability means we can stabilize, repair, and rebuild without handing the hardest part to someone else.
We handle
- Fire & smoke damage
- Water & flood damage
- Storm & wind damage
- Earthquake & structural damage
- Emergency board-up & service repairs
- Full reconstruction
The experience behind the estimate
Northridge
Earthquake damage inspection & estimating, where our property-loss practice began.
Nisqually
A KneppKraft team spent a year assessing multi-housing units and shopping malls around Renton after the Seattle quake.
Katrina & Rita
Commercial insurance consulting & hurricane relief across Louisiana.

Catastrophe response, by the numbers
After Katrina and Rita our team lived on the Gulf Coast for close to two years, working commercial properties, municipalities, parishes, malls, hotels, schools, restaurants, apartment complexes, arenas and warehouses.
The six-state licensing came out of the 2001 Nisqually earthquake, where the team spent a year assessing thousands of multi-housing units and shopping malls around Renton, Washington. The insurance restoration division dates to the 1994 Northridge earthquake. The full history →
From boarded storefronts back to a trading plaza
