About Us

Where insurance expertise meetsconstruction excellence.

Mystic Relief & Construction was built on a simple idea: property owners deserve a restoration partner who understands the claim as deeply as the repair. We're adjuster-owned, evidence-driven, and obsessed with results.

Our Story

Built from the inside of the claim.

Mystic Relief & Construction was founded by Shane Thaxton — a licensed insurance professional, catastrophe field investigator, and restoration consultant who spent years inside the insurance industry before stepping across the table to advocate for property owners.

After watching too many homeowners and business owners get steamrolled during the claims process, Shane built Mystic Relief & Construction to level the playing field — combining adjuster-level documentation with full-service restoration so every project is defended by data and delivered with craftsmanship.

Today, the company serves residential and commercial property owners across the Southeast, backed by the Mystic Intelligence Group — our in-house research division that fuels every inspection, estimate, and negotiation.
