What renovation services are after an eviction
Renovation is scoped construction after a hard file: floors, wet walls, kitchens. It is not cleanup and it is not a price-per-door from this website.
Key facts
- Lifecycle stage: Renovation.
- EvictIQ field operations: Georgia (metro Atlanta). We do not operate field crews in every state.
- Exact claims only: 10,000+ completed evictions; 72-hour service of tenant after filing on average (Georgia service).
- Not a law firm. Not legal advice. No date guarantees. No price list on this page.
What this service is
Cleanup gets you inspectable. Make-ready gets you paint and punch. Renovation is when the unit is actually damaged — water, missing appliances, unsafe wiring. Those jobs need bids, not a marketing paragraph.
We do not publish prices or cycle times. Georgia conversations are possible. Other states we route to a local contractor. EvictIQ is not a general contractor in every market.
When this step is needed
You need renovation when the recovered unit is actually damaged — wet walls, missing systems, unsafe conditions — not when it needs paint.
You do not start renovation inside an occupied unit to “save time.” That is self-help.
How the process usually works
- Photograph after possession and cleanup.
- Separate renovation line items from make-ready.
- Bid and approve before trades start.
- Pull permits where the scope requires them.
- Walk completion before leasing is told it is done.
Courts and executing offices set their own calendars. These are operational steps, not a guaranteed timeline.
What this step usually covers
- Condition photos after possession
- A written scope separate from cleanout
- Bids before work starts
- Handoff to leasing when the scope is actually done
These are the jobs the step exists to do. They are not a nationwide menu EvictIQ staffs in every county.
What you must verify locally
- Permits and licensed trades required for the scope
- Insurance vs owner-paid line items
- Who walks the punch at the end
We do not publish a stale per-state timetable. Statutes change.
What this does not include
- Legal advice, courtroom representation, or an attorney-client relationship
- A guaranteed hearing date, writ date, or setout date — courts and executing offices set their own calendars
- Self-help lockouts, utility shutoffs, or removal of belongings outside a court-issued writ
- A published price. Scope and price are written after intake, before work starts
Georgia we can handle. Elsewhere we route.
If the property is in Georgia, EvictIQ can take this step end to end. If it isn't, we'll tell you what to look for in a local attorney or service — we do not operate field crews in every state.

Common questions
Can renovation start before the setout to save time?
Not inside an occupied unit. That is self-help. Scope it after possession.
Do you renovate evicted units in every state?
No nationwide renovation crews.

We'll tell you so rather than take the lead. What to look for locally: a provider who knows which office executes writs in your county, who gives you cycle-time variance rather than an average, and who refuses to guarantee a completion date.
