RENU Contracting and Restoration

What RENU Contracting and Restoration does

RENU Contracting and Restoration is a privately held, multi-division commercial contractor headquartered in Copiague, New York, with a regional office in Somers, New York, operating across Long Island, the Hudson Valley, Westchester County, and Rockland County. Founded over 60 years ago and led by principals Scott Colletti and Mike VanDenburg, the company operates four integrated lines of business: General Contracting (renovations, additions, and capital improvements performed in occupied buildings), 24/7 Emergency Restoration Services (fire, water, smoke, and mold remediation), Energy Performance Contracting through its ESCO subsidiary RENU Energy Solutions (budget-neutral HVAC, lighting, controls, solar, and building-envelope retrofits), and Quick Ship material resale (CertainTeed ceiling tiles plus Milburn Flooring LVT/VCT/carpet tile), with a sister Sunrise Door Solutions division for security entries and bullet-resistant vestibules.

The technology stack is operationally digital rather than AI-driven: Xactimate for insurance-style estimating, Microsoft Teams / GoTo Meetings / RingCentral for collaboration, a native iOS/Android RENU emergency response app for loss intake, and an in-house industrial drying and mobile generator fleet deployed 24/7. Revenue is generated through project-based contracts (commercial GC and restoration billed through insurance carriers using Xactimate), multi-year budget-neutral ESPC agreements under the U.S. DOE ESPC Campaign framework, and unit-priced Quick Ship materials resale. Customer concentration is anchored in K-12 schools (180+ districts served), public libraries, healthcare facilities, municipalities, and religious institutions, with 90%+ of business derived from repeat customers and referrals, supported by IICRC, OSHA 30+, and DOE ESPC credentials.

Revenue model

1. Commercial General Contracting (renovations, additions, occupied-space work): Project-based one-time contracts covering interior/exterior renovations, additions, and construction in occupied buildings for K-12 schools, libraries, healthcare, government, and commercial clients across Long Island and Hudson Valley. Self-performed trades reduce sub costs and protect margins.
2. 24/7 Emergency Restoration Services: Fire, water, smoke, and mold damage remediation with rapid mobilization; billed through insurance carriers using Xactimate estimates. Includes emergency power, board-up, water extraction, dehumidification, corrosion control, demolition, contents restoration, electronics restoration, and full reconstruction.
3. Energy Performance Contracting (RENU Energy Solutions / ESCO): Budget-neutral multi-year contracts where future energy savings fund facility upgrades (HVAC, lighting, controls, solar, building envelope). Revenue is realized as design-build-maintain project fees financed via ESPC structures rather than upfront capital outlay from the client.
4. Quick Ship Materials Resale (CertainTeed Ceiling Tiles, Milburn Flooring LVT/VCT/Carpet Tile): Inventory resold and installed from local warehouses for time-sensitive flooring and ceiling replacement, often after disasters. Spend on ceiling material alone is approximately $2 million per year, indicating meaningful product resale economics.
5. Sunrise Door Solutions (Secure Door Division): Specialized door and security entryway installations branded under Sunrise Door Solutions, including bullet-resistant doors/frames (Armored One Fire Rated, CurrieStain), mantraps, card-reader-controlled access, and wireless electronic locking hardware for K-12 schools and government facilities.

Core offering

RENU Contracting and Restoration is a commercial general contractor providing 24/7 emergency restoration for fire, water, smoke, and mold damage alongside reconstruction, additions, and interior/exterior renovations performed in occupied buildings. The company also operates RENU Energy Solutions as an Energy Services Company (ESCO) delivering budget-neutral Energy Performance Contracting (HVAC, LED lighting, building automation, solar, building envelope) for schools, municipalities, healthcare facilities, and higher education clients across Long Island, the Hudson Valley, and Rockland County.

Product overview

RENU Contracting and Restoration operates as a multi-division commercial contractor on Long Island and the Hudson Valley rather than a single unified software product. The portfolio is anchored by three core service lines: General Contracting (reconstruction, additions, renovations in occupied spaces), Restoration Services (24-hour emergency response for fire, water, smoke, and mold), and Energy Solutions / Energy Performance Contracting (ESCO). Layered on top of these services is the RENU Restoration Mobile App, which lets commercial customers report losses, upload images, and receive weather/event notifications that feed into the 24/7 response team. The Sunrise Door Solutions sub-brand supplies secure entryway products, and the Quick Ship program warehouses CertainTeed ceiling tiles (Symphony, Fine Fissured, Sand Micro Customline) plus Milburn Flooring's stocked LVT/VCT/carpet tile for expedited installation on restoration and renovation jobs.
