What is Residential Fire Damage Restoration?

Even small fires need a pro to check the damage. Smoke and soot get into walls, ducts, and belongings. This can cause health issues and ongoing damage.

We offer 24/7 fire and smoke cleanup. Our goal is to get you back home fast. We help with everything from securing your property to filing insurance claims.

Fire damage differs by the type of fire. Kitchen fires, electrical fires, and wood fires each leave different residue. Our IICRC-certified team knows how to clean each type.

Smoke travels through HVAC systems. It settles on surfaces far from the flames. Soot is acidic and keeps damaging surfaces after the fire is out. Fast cleaning prevents permanent stains.

Why Residential Fire is Different

A house fire is traumatic. Beyond the damage, families face stress and loss. We help with insurance claims. We try to save photos, heirlooms, and keepsakes. Some things can't be replaced. We work hard to restore what we can.

Why Fast Action Matters

Time matters after a fire. Soot stains and corrodes within hours. Smoke keeps damaging items daily. Water from fire hoses can cause mold. Fast action saves more items and costs less.

Fire Damage Restoration FAQs

Get answers to common questions about our services in your area.

Fire damage restoration is a comprehensive process that addresses all aspects of fire, smoke, and soot damage. It includes emergency board-up and tarping to secure the property, debris and damaged material removal, soot and smoke residue cleaning from all surfaces, odor elimination using thermal fogging and ozone treatment, content cleaning and restoration, and complete structural repairs. We also address water damage from firefighting efforts and provide mold prevention treatment.

Yes, professional restoration can fully remove smoke and soot damage in most cases when addressed quickly. Soot is acidic and continues to damage surfaces over time, so prompt cleaning is essential. Our technicians use specialized cleaning agents, equipment, and techniques designed for different surface types. However, some porous materials may need replacement if contamination has penetrated too deeply. We assess each item and provide honest recommendations about what can be restored versus replaced.

Fire restoration timelines vary significantly based on damage extent. A minor kitchen fire may be restored in 1-2 weeks, while major structural fires can take several months. The process includes securing the property (1-2 days), cleaning and deodorization (1-2 weeks), and repairs/reconstruction (2-8 weeks depending on scope). We provide detailed timelines after assessment and work efficiently to return you to your property as quickly as safely possible.

Homeowners and commercial property insurance typically covers fire damage restoration, including structural repairs, content cleaning or replacement, smoke and soot damage, and additional living expenses if you're displaced. Coverage limits and deductibles vary by policy. We work directly with insurance companies, provide detailed documentation, and can help you navigate the claims process to maximize your coverage.

Smoke odor removal requires multiple professional techniques because odor molecules penetrate into porous materials throughout the property. We use thermal fogging, which creates a deodorizing fog that penetrates the same areas smoke did. Ozone treatment oxidizes odor molecules to neutralize them. HEPA air scrubbers remove airborne particles. We also clean all surfaces including walls, ceilings, and inside cabinets. For severe cases, sealing materials with odor-blocking primers may be necessary. Complete odor removal often requires treatment of HVAC systems as well.

Do not wash smoke-damaged clothing in your home washing machine—this can set smoke odors and stains permanently. Professional textile cleaning uses specialized equipment and chemicals to remove smoke odors and soot. We can arrange professional cleaning for salvageable clothing, bedding, and other textiles. Items that cannot be restored will be documented for insurance replacement. Quick action improves the chances of successful restoration.

Some electronics can be saved after fire or smoke damage, but professional assessment is critical. Smoke residue is corrosive and conductive, which can cause short circuits if electronics are powered on before cleaning. We work with specialized electronics restoration companies who can clean and test equipment including computers, TVs, and appliances. However, electronics directly exposed to flames or extreme heat typically cannot be saved and should be replaced.

You should not stay in your home until it has been assessed and cleared for occupancy. Even small fires can create unsafe conditions including structural damage, electrical hazards, compromised air quality from smoke and soot particles, and water damage from firefighting. Your fire department and insurance company can help determine when the property is safe. If you must retrieve items, wear appropriate protective equipment and limit your time inside.
