Straight Answers Before You Call.
Most people contact us when something has already gone wrong — failed inspections, permit issues, storm damage, unfinished work, or a closing deadline. These are the questions we hear most often.
I’m not even sure what’s wrong — can you still help?
Yes. Most people contact us before they fully understand the problem. Send photos, a report, or a quick description and we’ll help you figure out what you’re dealing with and what the next step should be.
Do I need to know exactly what needs to be fixed?
No. In many cases, the issue is not fully visible until it is reviewed. Start by sending what you have — photos, reports, notices, or a description — and we’ll help you take the next step.
How fast can you come out?
It depends on the situation, but we prioritize time-sensitive issues like failed inspections, stop work orders, storm damage, active leaks, and closing deadlines. Tell us your timeline and we’ll tell you what is realistic.
What does it cost?
It depends on the scope. Smaller repairs can be straightforward, while permit issues, inspection failures, or correction work may require a site visit to properly assess. We’ll give you clearer direction after reviewing the situation.
Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?
Yes. Red Tag Rescue operates as a licensed, insured, and bonded contractor serving Nebraska and Iowa.
What kind of work do you handle?
We handle remodeling, roofing, storm damage, permit recovery, inspection repairs, stalled projects, code violations, and correction work — especially projects that are incomplete, unsafe, or flagged by the city.
Can you fix what another contractor messed up?
Yes. That is a large portion of our work. We review what was done, identify what needs to be corrected, and finish the project properly so it can move forward safely, cleanly, or toward inspection readiness.
Can you help with a project that is half finished?
Yes. We frequently take over stalled or abandoned projects, correct any issues, and bring them to completion.
Do I need a permit for this?
In many cases, yes — but it depends on the type of work. If you are unsure, send the details and we’ll help you understand whether a permit is likely required and what that means for your project.
Can you fix unpermitted work?
Yes. We correct unpermitted work, bring it closer to code compliance, and help prepare the property for inspection and approval.
What if my project already failed inspection?
That is exactly the type of situation we handle. We review the inspection report, correct the issues, and help prepare the project for re-inspection.
Can you help with a Stop Work Order?
Yes. We step in, identify what needs to be corrected, and help move the project back toward compliance so work can continue.
Can you reopen or close an old permit?
Yes. We assist with permit recovery, correction work, documentation, and preparing the project for proper closure.
Do you work with insurance claims?
We document visible damage and help organize the information needed so important repair items are not missed during the process.
Do you offer emergency tarping?
Yes. We provide temporary protection and leak control to help prevent further damage after storms or active roof leaks.
Do you handle full roof replacements?
Yes. We handle roof replacement, storm damage roof repair, leak repairs, flashing issues, ventilation concerns, and connected exterior repairs such as gutters, fascia, and siding.
Do you handle full remodels?
Yes. We handle kitchens, bathrooms, basements, structural work, interior updates, exterior updates, and full property renovations.
Do you work with investors or rental properties?
Yes. We support flips, rentals, and investment properties with repair, renovation, correction, and inspection-ready work.
Can you finish work another contractor abandoned?
Yes. We review the existing work, determine what can stay, identify what needs correction, and create a plan to finish the project properly.
Can you complete repairs before closing?
We understand how critical real estate timelines are. Let us know the deadline and send the repair list or inspection report. We’ll tell you what can realistically be completed and how to move forward.
Do you provide documentation for buyers, sellers, agents, or lenders?
Yes. We can provide photos, repair summaries, and completion details when needed.
Can you help if a violation or permit issue is delaying a sale?
Yes. We help with violation corrections, failed inspections, unpermitted work, permit recovery, and repair documentation when a sale is at risk.
Where do you work?
We serve Omaha, Elkhorn, Bennington, Gretna, Papillion, La Vista, Bellevue, Ralston, Council Bluffs, and surrounding metro areas.
