About James E. Milne

Big Dog Restoration, led by James E. Milne, is a full-service Master Certified cleaning and restoration company located in El Dorado Hills, California. With over 38 years of experience, the company holds IICRC Master Certification in both restoration and remediation — a designation earned by fewer than 2% of all certified technicians, requiring six independent certifications and years of dedicated training to complete. As a licensed general contractor, Big Dog Restoration is equipped to handle complete structural drying and full reconstruction following water damage events. The company also provides specialized natural stone, tile, and grout cleaning and sealing, as well as comprehensive carpet and upholstery care using a thorough 10-step cleaning process. Big Dog Restoration offers free virtual consultations and operates on a 24/7, 365-day emergency response schedule. The company stands behind its work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee and is known for fair, honest, and transparent pricing delivered by courteous, uniformed professionals. Clients throughout the El Dorado Hills and greater Sacramento region have praised the company for thoroughness, expertise, and a commitment to ongoing training and education. A distinctive aspect of Big Dog Restoration is its dedication to animal rescue — the company donates a portion of proceeds from every job to adoption, rescue, and foster organizations.
