Restoration in Irving
Fire repair on a home is priced by area in Irving: $0.30 per square foot of the work area, with a $130 minimum, and capped at what comparable new construction would pay, according to the Building Inspection Fees. Irving charges $125 per building for foundation repair and $65 per trade for a single-family demolition. The fee page carries fees effective Oct. 15, 2022 with updates effective February 13, 2026 and October 1, 2026, and its text doesn't tie a date to each row, so confirm the row you're quoted.
Homeowners who plan to do the work themselves need a homestead exemption filed with the Dallas Central Appraisal District before applying for a residential permit; roof permits are the exception. Irving Inspections works upstairs at City Hall, 825 W. Irving Blvd., 2nd Floor, Irving, TX 75060, taking calls at (972) 721-2371 between 8 and 5 on weekdays. Its pages link proposed ordinances to adopt the 2024 International Codes without saying which edition is in force now.
Irving's limits touch FEMA flood zones A and AE, a polygon count that says nothing of area. Census data puts Irving's median year built at 1986. If you hire a public adjuster for a fire claim, TDI says the fee can reach 10% of what the insurer pays on the whole claim. You get 72 hours after signing to cancel, and the adjuster can't double as your contractor. Before you apply to do your own repair, confirm your homestead exemption with the Dallas Central Appraisal District.
