Restoring Structures.
Rebuilding Stability.

Rebuilding What Matters Most—
Safely, Responsibly, and With Purpose.

Disaster recovery construction requires more than a toolbox and a timeline. It demands discipline, regulatory knowledge, and a deep respect for the homeowners and communities affected.

At Shepherd Response, our veteran-led team brings over 600 completed projects’ worth of expertise in federally funded programs like CDBG-DR, HMGP, and HMA. We deliver work that’s not only compliant, but carefully executed, clearly communicated, and built to last.

Reconstruction

We rebuild homes that have been severely damaged or destroyed, bringing them back to code and often better than before. Our reconstruction services are tailored to federal and state program standards, with clear coordination from start to finish. Every step, from permitting to final walk, is handled with precision, accountability, and a commitment to homeowner dignity.

Rehabilitation

When a home can be repaired rather than rebuilt, our rehabilitation crews step in with the expertise to assess damage, develop scope, and execute high-quality repairs that meet both program and safety standards. We manage everything from structural remediation to energy-efficient upgrades, always focused on doing the job right the first time.

Home Elevation

Our elevation crews are experienced in complex lifts - from mobile homes to 2,600 sq ft coastal properties. We understand the engineering, permitting, and soil conditions that come with elevation work, especially in flood-prone and hurricane-impacted regions.

Shepherd Response has completed dozens of successful lifts under programs like HMGP, with full compliance and structural integrity.

Demolition

When structures are too damaged to repair, we provide demolition services that are safe, compliant, and environmentally responsible. Our team manages site prep, debris removal, and documentation in accordance with local and federal guidelines, paving the way for reconstruction or mitigation work with minimal disruption.

We replace damaged or substandard mobile homes with modern, code-compliant MHUs that meet program specifications and improve quality of life.
