Beyond Phase 2: Suncore Construction Specializes in Complete Fire Debris Removal and Site Prep in California

When the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers wraps up Phase 2 fire debris removal, many homeowners assume the job is done. Unfortunately, it’s not. The Corps handles the bulk debris removal, but much is left behind—concrete slabs, pool shells, patios, trees, partially cleared structures, and fire-damaged soil. This debris prevents homeowners from moving forward with permits, grading, or reconstruction.

At Suncore Construction, we step in after Phase 2 to finish the job right.

Why Post-Phase 2 Cleanup Matters

Permits for rebuilds won’t be approved if there’s debris still on-site. We’ve seen it all:

• Fire-damaged concrete slabs

• Buried spas and pools

• Scorched retaining walls

• Tree trunks, stumps, and root balls

• Contaminated soil and leftover ash

These hazards not only delay reconstruction but may trigger violations during inspections. That’s where Suncore Construction comes in—we remove it all and make your site clean, safe, and build-ready.
