Structural Damage Restoration Services

HARBRO’s strengths lie in coordinating restoration projects of any commercial or private structure following damage from natural disasters, fire, flooding, and vehicle collisions. Extensive experience in commercial, residential, highrise and community restoration has given us the skills we need to achieve outstanding results.

Structural Damage Restoration by Vehicles, Earthquakes or Other Means

Our team quickly gets involved in engineering and planning to develop a working strategy and create a turn key approach that allows us to restore damaged properties to pre-loss conditions.

There are a multitude of possibilities in how a building can become damaged by vehicles or other means. Some of the common damages may consist of compromising the structural integrity of the building, marring of cosmetic features, and damaging of windows and doors, fencing, block walls, broken pipes and any other structural elements.

Before After

HARBRO provides services such as shoring, bracing, temporary fencing and power, securing of the building, demolition and total restoration of the property after vehicle damage has occurred.

We will work with city officials and architects to coordinate necessary documents for proceeding with the restoration of vehicle-damaged property.

It is critical to secure your property immediately following initial damage. HARBRO will respond 24/7.

Name

Director of Business Development | Southern California

Kathy Lawler is the Director of Business Development for HARBRO’s Southern California operations. She oversees all account managers and steers marketing efforts for HARBRO’s offices in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino / Riverside, San Diego, and Santa Clarita. Kathy got her start in the restoration industry in 1995 when she agreed to fill for an office manager who was absent on maternity leave at a well-known restoration firm. She was a natural fit for the position and, when it unexpectedly became permanent, Kathy began an enduring career. She joined HARBRO in 2007 as a Senior Account Manager and for the next 10 years worked alongside the HARBRO staff and in the many office locations that she now leads, gleaning detailed knowledge of HARBRO’s day-to-day operations and seeing the company’s vision and mission in action. Her experience, good judgment, and innate business acumen secured the trust of clients and confidence of her team, and clearly merited a promotion to her current position, Director of Business Development for Southern California, which she assumed in 2016. After 25 years in the restoration industry and many more ahead of her at HARBRO, Kathy is clear about the reason for her longevity: the restoration world is an unassuming, yet indispensable, industry that is fluid, challenging, and complex on a daily basis. A key driver of business at HARBRO, she believes, is that every day ends with a sense of impactful accomplishment that someone at HARBRO has helped another person through a traumatic disaster—the type of work product that inspires a life work, not just a career. Out of the office, Kathy adores making memories with her three sons and four grandkids, and also playing a little golf now and then. She is a member of many industry professional groups, particularly BOMA.

Jessica Locke

Regional Manager of Business Development for the Pacific Northwest

Regional Manager of Business Development for HARBRO’s Pacific Northwest division, Jessica Locke is responsible for growing HARBRO’s Greater Seattle Area branch office and assisting with the growth of the Portland, OR, branch office. She is an expert in positioning her team for growth by gathering and interpreting information, identifying improvement opportunities, and establishing policies and processes that drive efficiency and quality. She has 20 years’ experience in the service and construction industries combined.

From an early age, Jessica was self-driven and began building her career well before she knew what her career would be. In high school, she began working in the service industry and subsequently thrived in jobs that allowed her to serve and build genuine relationships with others. She entered sales after college in 2003 and in 2007 joined Pipeline Plumbing & Consulting (Bellevue) in an administrative role that quickly saw her ascend to Vice President of Sales in the short span of 3 years. This was a key opportunity for her because she was entrusted with growing the company while the owner transitioned into retirement. She was able to build significant relationships with clients that included property managers and homeowner associations. Her impressive accomplishment drew HARBRO’s attention and Jessica was likewise drawn by HARBRO’s client-centered values—professionalism, knowledge, honesty, reliability—the same that had made her own career successful, and in 2014 she joined HARBRO as an Account Manager in Seattle. Three short years later, Jessica’s leadership and relational skills, and notable extensive experience in a short timeframe, propelled her to her current position leading HARBRO’s Pacific Northwest division. It is clear from her rapid success that Jessica has an exceptional ability to quickly absorb new information and adapt to situations, a talent that serves her clients well in an industry in which fast, prudent decisions are requisite.

Jessica lives in the Greater Seattle Area with her husband and their 2-year-old son. She and her family love to snow ski and do all things outdoors, including little Wyatt, who is quite the sportsman already.

Jessica Locke

Regional Manager of Business Development for the Pacific Northwest

Regional Manager of Business Development for HARBRO’s Pacific Northwest division, Jessica Locke is responsible for growing HARBRO’s Greater Seattle Area branch office and assisting with the growth of the Portland, OR, branch office. She is an expert in positioning her team for growth by gathering and interpreting information, identifying improvement opportunities, and establishing policies and processes that drive efficiency and quality. She has 20 years’ experience in the service and construction industries combined.

From an early age, Jessica was self-driven and began building her career well before she knew what her career would be. In high school, she began working in the service industry and subsequently thrived in jobs that allowed her to serve and build genuine relationships with others. She entered sales after college in 2003 and in 2007 joined Pipeline Plumbing & Consulting (Bellevue) in an administrative role that quickly saw her ascend to Vice President of Sales in the short span of 3 years. This was a key opportunity for her because she was entrusted with growing the company while the owner transitioned into retirement. She was able to build significant relationships with clients that included property managers and homeowner associations. Her impressive accomplishment drew HARBRO’s attention and Jessica was likewise drawn by HARBRO’s client-centered values—professionalism, knowledge, honesty, reliability—the same that had made her own career successful, and in 2014 she joined HARBRO as an Account Manager in Seattle. Three short years later, Jessica’s leadership and relational skills, and notable extensive experience in a short timeframe, propelled her to her current position leading HARBRO’s Pacific Northwest division. It is clear from her rapid success that Jessica has an exceptional ability to quickly absorb new information and adapt to situations, a talent that serves her clients well in an industry in which fast, prudent decisions are requisite.

Jessica lives in the Greater Seattle Area with her husband and their 2-year-old son. She and her family love to snow ski and do all things outdoors, including little Wyatt, who is quite the sportsman already.

Jessica can be reached directly at (425) 656-0500

Kathy Lawler

Director of Business Development | Southern California

Kathy Lawler is the Director of Business Development for HARBRO’s Southern California operations. She oversees all account managers and steers marketing efforts for HARBRO’s offices in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino / Riverside, San Diego, and Santa Clarita.

Kathy got her start in the restoration industry in 1995 when she agreed to fill for an office manager who was absent on maternity leave at a well-known restoration firm. She was a natural fit for the position and, when it unexpectedly became permanent, Kathy began an enduring career. She joined HARBRO in 2007 as a Senior Account Manager and for the next 10 years worked alongside the HARBRO staff and in the many office locations that she now leads, gleaning detailed knowledge of HARBRO’s day-to-day operations and seeing the company’s vision and mission in action. Her experience, good judgment, and innate business acumen secured the trust of clients and confidence of her team, and clearly merited a promotion to her current position, Director of Business Development for Southern California, which she assumed in 2016.

After 25 years in the restoration industry and many more ahead of her at HARBRO, Kathy is clear about the reason for her longevity: the restoration world is an unassuming, yet indispensable, industry that is fluid, challenging, and complex on a daily basis. A key driver of business at HARBRO, she believes, is that every day ends with a sense of impactful accomplishment that someone at HARBRO has helped another person through a traumatic disaster—the type of work product that inspires a life work, not just a career.

Out of the office, Kathy adores making memories with her three sons and four grandkids, and also playing a little golf now and then. She is a member of many industry professional groups, particularly BOMA.

Ryan Rusler

Vice President of Business Development

Ryan Rusler is the Vice President of Business Development at HARBRO. He assists companies to develop disaster preparedness and mitigation plans; he spends the majority of his time consulting with clients before an emergency occurs. He has been responding to building disasters for HARBRO’s commercial real estate clients across the West Coast for over ten years.

Ryan joined HARBRO in 2007 after graduating from Colorado State University with a degree in business administration. Along side, he also went on to earn his Leadership and Management certificate from the University of California, Berkeley, to continue leading his team and serving clients to his utmost ability.

A lifelong outdoorsman and athlete, Ryan’s innate energy served him well at a company that gave him autonomy and rewarded his effort. For his work and genuine passion for HARBRO’s mission, he gained the respect of his colleagues and earned greater responsibilities that led him to executive positions in the short span of 10 years.

Now, Ryan is responsible for cultivating business and mentoring sales teams in all of HARBRO’s Northern California region encompassing three offices. Ryan is certified in water restoration (IICRC-WRT); mold remediation (IICRC-AMRT); OSHA 10-hour, asbestos 40-hour; lead 8 hour (IICRC); and Incident Command Systems 100, 200, 300, 700, and 800. He is also a High Rise Fire Life Safety Director with San Francisco’s Local 39.

Ryan lives in Oakland, California, with his wife and their dog. They all (including the pooch!) love to explore the outdoors whether in their town or another country. Additionally, Ryan volunteers his time at career development and recruiting events at his alma mater, Colorado State University.

Ryan can be reached directly at (650) 670-2110

Dan Haslam

Las Vegas Branch Manager

Following the retirement of one of HARBRO’s most long-serving executives, Dan Haslam was hand-picked to lead HARBRO’s Nevada operations as the Las Vegas Branch Manager. Dan has dedicated more than a decade to his colleagues and clients at HARBRO and has exemplified HARBRO’s values of work ethic and dependability, with a commitment to people over all else. Dan is steering the Las Vegas office with confidence in his team and continued dedication to HARBRO’s clients.

Immediately after graduation in 2005 at Boise State University with a degree in construction management, Dan he immediately went to work as a superintendent for a luxury residential builder overseeing 10 to 15 major construction projects at once, until the Great Recession halted residential construction. At that time, he came to HARBRO for the opportunity to train in a new industry and join a company that continued to grow when others were collapsing. Dan built his management skills in junior, then senior, project management roles before stepping into executive leadership as Las Vegas Branch Manager, his current role. Dan demonstrated courage from an early age to forge his own path. At HARBRO, this courage has emerged as an ability to respond to unpredictable situations with composure and assurance, which he has gained through decades of adapting to various work environments, responsibilities, and personalities. Dan’s favorite aspect of his career at HARBRO is the chance to experience the joy of helping people put their lives back together after a crisis.

Dan and his wife have been married for over 17 years and together they have two daughters.

Dan is IICRC certified as a Water Damage Technician, Lead Renovator, and Asbestos Abatement Contractor/Supervisor in Fire & Smoke Remediation, Odor Control, Applied Structural Drying, and Applied Microbial Remediation. Dan can be reached directly at (702) 241-3030 or dan.haslam@harbro.com.

Keith Dixon

Silicon Valley Branch Manager

Keith was born in Oakland, California, into a family of contractors led by his grandfather. Being raised among skilled tradesmen, Keith naturally developed the talents and experience that would shape his career. Today, Keith is Branch Manager of HARBRO’s San Jose office, where he has taken on a significant opportunity to build a team and client base from the ground up by emphasizing outstanding customer service that is, in his words, “worthy of the HARBRO signature.”

Following years of learning his family’s business, Keith pursued a formal education at Howard University, earning a bachelor’s degree in communications in 2009. After graduation, he returned to the carpentry and electrical trades for five years before joining HARBRO as a carpenter/floorman in the San Francisco Bay Area. Keith demonstrated a mastery of his craft and an aptitude for effective communication. Spurred by his mentors, namely Geno Gonzalez, Keith expanded his skills and learned to build genuine, fruitful business relationships. As a result, Keith rose quickly into project management and after two years was chosen to take the helm of the growing San Jose office. Keith’s ability to both manage business operations as well as “get his hands dirty” on a project site, if necessary, is invaluable to his team and clients. As Branch Manager, his focus is to spread the HARBRO name in the Silicon Valley / greater San Jose area by providing leadership and exemplary customer service in an industry that demands agility, flexibility, and razor-sharp focus.

Keith lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and has an insatiable love for travelling and discovering new food and music. His all-time favorite food is barbeque. Keith can be reached directly at (650) 670-2320 or keith.dixon@harbro.com.

Sandra McCombs

Branch Manager | Sacramento, CA

Sandra McCombs is the Sacramento, California Branch Manager. Sandra came to HARBRO in 2004 with a formidable combination of diverse skills and sense of self determination that has driven her career. Fourteen years in HARBRO’s Signal Hill headquarters office has prepared her thoroughly to lead a team of her own and grow one of HARBRO’s emergent branches serving California’s capital city and region.

Sandra lives by her motto, “never miss an opportunity to learn something new.” She began at HARBRO 14 years ago in Technical Services department doing billing and payroll. Within weeks of starting her first duties, she earned the confidence of her then-supervisor Jim Franklin to take on greater responsibilities. Throughout the next six years, she wore many hats, including managing inventory and personnel in the company’s central warehouse. She clearly had shown an aptitude for management and was soon promoted to Junior Project Manager under the tutelage of a fellow project manager. She gives much credit to HARBRO’s culture of mentorship and is deeply grateful for the alertness of HARBRO’s leaders to their employees’ ambitions and their readiness to provide resources and open doors. Along the way, she says, her HARBRO mentors, particularly regional manager Tom Henley, always noticed she had more to give and responded with real opportunities.

Sandra is IICRC certified as a Water Damage Technician, Lead Renovator, and Asbestos Abatement Contractor/Supervisor in Fire & Smoke Remediation, Odor Control, Applied Structural Drying, and Applied Microbial Remediation.

Sandra is an avowed country music superfan, mostly of the “old school” style. A fun, little-known fact about Sandra is that she was raised on a turkey ranch—Gobble gobble!

Sandra can be reached directly at (562) 533-2955

Timothy Young

Branch Manager | Portland, OR

Responding to emergencies, disasters and catastrophes in a rapid, but calm and efficient way came naturally to Tim Young when he was an EMT and Volunteer Firefighter for 10 years in Riverside County, California. So, he says, working for a company like HARBRO where he could react in real time to fires, floods, and even non-emergency calls was a “perfect fit.”

Born in San Antonio, Texas, his parent’s had to move and relocate many times in his first few years of life, due to his father’s stint in the U. S. Air Force. His family finally settled in Southern California, where he was raised. When he became a young man, Tim worked just over 10 years for a 50-employee masonry company where he got to spread his wings and learn the trade from the ground up – literally and figuratively. He relocated to the lush country of Oregon, where he joined HARBRO in August 2012 as a Project Manager, and through hard work and dedication quickly rose in ranks and was promoted to Portland Branch Manager in August, 2014.

Tim holds a B.S. in Business Management from Liberty University, with an A.S. in Fire Technology. He is certified as an Applied Microbial Remediation Technician and a Water Damage Restoration Technician by IICRC. Through HARBRO, Tim is also a member of BOMA and the Oregon & Southwest Washington Chapter of IFMA. He holds a Professional in Human Resources (PHR) Certification from and is a member of the Society for Human Resource Management, as well as a member of the International Code Council (ICC).

Tim is a master when responding to emergencies, and prides himself on three traits he learned from a mentor he had as a younger man: ethics, honesty, and being a Jack of all trades. His Oregon team follows his lead and they are cross-trained to help clients in a variety of all types of situations. Like all HARBRO offices, the Portland team responds 24/7/365 for emergency restoration services. You can contact Tim at (503) 482-6720

Max Zamoshkin

Branch Manager | Phoenix, AZ

Max Zamoshkin was born in Russia and immigrated to the United States with his family in 1989 when he was just six years old and credits his strong work ethic to his parents who immigrated to America with almost no money but with a desire to provide their family with the opportunities they never had.

Max joined the HARBRO family in September 2010 as an Account Manager and quickly began to establish strong relationships with clients who previously did not know of HARBRO’s dedication to the highest levels of quality and customer satisfaction. In August 2013, Max was promoted to Phoenix Branch Manager to continue building upon the strong client relationships he helped establish as well as secure new client accounts that would help growth and expand the Phoenix office.

Previously Max worked for a local land developer overseeing the construction of large thousand-plus family sub-divisions, and worked with several local municipalities in urban development and revitalization projects, but he also acquired the business acumen needed for long-term success. Max graduated from Arizona State University Barrett Honors College with a BS in Finance, and earned an MBA from ASU’s W.P. Carey School of Business. Max is also certified by the IICRC for Water Damage Restoration and Fire & Smoke Restoration, and has the AHERA Supervisor Certification for Asbestos Removal & Remediation.

Through HARBRO, Max is also a member of the Arizona Chapter of IFMA and BOMA, and volunteers his time with various non-profit organizations like Habitat for Humanity.

The Phoenix team prides itself on; immediate response to the complex and urgent needs of their clients, the utmost integrity and dedication to quality on every job they perform regardless of the size, and excellent customer service by going beyond client expectations.

Like all HARBRO offices, the Phoenix team responds 24/7/365 for emergency restoration services. You can contact Max at (480) 449-3900

Jorge Reza

Branch Manager | San Diego Office

Growing up the second youngest and the 9th of 10 kids, Jorge “George” Reza was used to competing and working hard for whatever he got in life. Nothing was handed to him on a silver platter.

His father was a hard worker, and so was his mother, who he says had the “toughest career” as a housewife and mother of 8 boys and 2 girls. Young Jorge learned what work was, and saw the benefits of working hard.

“I received an AA Degree in college, but couldn’t decide where to go educationally from there, I just wanted to work,” Jorge says. So he worked his way up the ranks to management in a grocery store, moonlighting to earn his Contractor’s License and eventually run his own construction business specializing in kitchen and bath remodels. He never advertised once. All his work came by referral—which is how he came to HARBRO, he was referred by a HARBRO manager who was impressed with Jorge’s work ethic.

Jorge joined HARBRO in 2001 at the Riverside office as a Project Manager and four years later was promoted to a Senior Project Manager, then in 2009 he was promoted to his current position as Branch Manager of the San Diego office. Born and raised in Orange County, CA, moving a few miles down south was a natural fit. Jorge and his wife of 25 years have two boys in High School, and Jorge enjoys watching the two boys excel in baseball and water polo at their high school. Among his certificates, Jorge is certified in Mold & Water by IICRC.

Jorge says he enjoys being able to provide honest and important information and guidance to Har-Bro clients when they’re in a time of need and uncertainty. His main hobbies are water sports and remodeling his house.

The San Diego team responds 24/7/365 for emergency restoration services. You can contact Jorge at (619) 398-0200

David Ross

Branch Manager | Riverside Office

David Ross got his start in the construction and restoration industry in 1983 when he began working with his father in the family’s painting and restoration business. He left only to serve in the U.S. military from 1992 to 1996, including a tour in Somalia for Operation Restore Hope and Operation Continue Hope. Upon his return home in 1996, he went back to work with his father and his brother in the same business until he joined HARBRO in 2007. When he arrived at HARBRO, his lifelong, personal investment in the industry translated naturally to success and he quickly earned a promotion to Senior Project Manager and now as Branch Manager for the Riverside/San Bernardino Counties.

David’s most distinctive traits are his dedication and diligence in everything he gets involved in. His hands-on and compassionate approach are fruits of the long, industrious years working with his father and brother. Using his own sports analogy, David attributes his longevity to being on the “marquee team of the restoration industry,” referring to HARBRO, “they are always going to the Super Bowl.” Since the moment he was first intrigued by HARBRO, the company whose logo he saw on a church after it had been destroyed by fire, David is continually inspired by the company that is always doing the best on every job, hiring the best people, and having standards with the utmost integrity.
