Meet the Team
MacFawn Fire & Flood Restoration has been serving Albany and the Capital Region since 1989, when founder Joe MacFawn started the company while studying at UAlbany. What began as a janitorial and repair service evolved into a full-scale disaster recovery operation. Today, MacFawn provides 24/7 emergency response for water damage, fire and smoke cleanup, mold remediation, sewage cleanup, hoarding cleanouts, and specialty cleaning for both residential and commercial clients. The company holds IICRC certifications, multiple state licenses, and active memberships in ICRA, RIA, and IFMA. Joe MacFawn brings over 30 years of restoration experience, a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and Marketing from UAlbany, and a background with the Carpenters Union Local 370. MacFawn now serves New York, Massachusetts, Florida, and the greater Northeast, but remains locally owned and operated in Albany. The team focuses on minimizing damage and downtime, communicating clearly with customers, and helping streamline insurance claims. Core values of honesty, integrity, action, process, communication, and education guide every job.
Question Answers
How does MacFawn handle window leak water intrusion or snowmelt water damage in Albany homes?
Albany winters and spring thaws often cause window leaks and snowmelt seeping into basements or crawl spaces. MacFawn’s team responds within one hour, assesses the source, extracts standing water, and thoroughly dries affected areas to prevent mold. We also check for hidden moisture behind walls and under flooring, which is common in older Albany homes near neighborhoods like Center Square or Pine Hills.
Does MacFawn offer commercial deep cleaning and janitorial services for Albany businesses?
Yes, MacFawn provides commercial deep cleaning, standard cleaning, move-in/move-out cleaning, and janitorial services for offices, retail spaces, and facilities across Albany. Our team handles post-construction cleanup, biohazard remediation, and routine maintenance. We serve properties near key landmarks like the Empire State Plaza and Lark Street, ensuring a clean, safe environment for employees and customers.
What does MacFawn’s mold remediation process involve for Albany residents?
Our mold remediation starts with a thorough inspection to identify moisture sources, often from leaky roofs or plumbing in older Albany homes. We contain the area, remove mold-infested materials, clean and disinfect surfaces, and dry the space completely. We also address the underlying issue—like a slow leak behind a wall—to prevent recurrence. Our IICRC-certified technicians follow industry standards to restore your home safely.
