About Fortivo
We're the Team You Want When Everything Goes Wrong
Locally owned and founder-led, Fortivo brings fast, honest, IICRC-certified disaster restoration to homeowners and businesses across Maryland, DC, and Virginia.
Who We Are
Who We Are At Fortivo
Fortivo was founded by Scott Futrovsky and Jason Gates — two experienced contractors who saw how impersonal and stressful the restoration process could be for homeowners at their most vulnerable moments. They built Fortivo to be different: faster, more transparent, more communicative, and more personal than the national franchise chains that treat customers like claim numbers.
Every project at Fortivo is handled with the same urgency and attention to detail whether it’s a small bathroom leak or a major commercial fire loss. Scott and Jason remain personally involved in every job — you’re not handed off to a call center. You work directly with the people who built this company.
