Fire Damage Restoration Services
Fire damage goes far beyond what the flames touch. Smoke and soot penetrate walls, ductwork, and soft furnishings, causing ongoing corrosion and health hazards long after the fire is out. Water used to extinguish the fire creates its own damage. Without professional restoration, secondary damage continues to compound.
Our partner contractors provide complete fire damage restoration — from emergency board-up and smoke removal through full structural reconstruction.
What Fire Damage Restoration Includes
Emergency Board-Up & Tarping
Immediate securing of your property to prevent further damage from weather, theft, or animals. Available 24/7 — our contractors respond within hours of the fire.
Smoke & Soot Removal
Professional cleaning of all surfaces using specialized techniques for each material type. Soot is acidic and causes permanent damage to metals, fabrics, and finishes if not removed quickly.
Deodorization
Thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and hydroxyl generators eliminate smoke odor at the molecular level. Surface cleaning alone cannot remove embedded smoke smell — professional deodorization is required.
Content Restoration
Salvageable belongings are inventoried, packed out, and cleaned at off-site restoration facilities. Electronics, documents, photos, and textiles receive specialized treatment matched to the material.
Structural Reconstruction
Fire-damaged framing, drywall, electrical, plumbing, and finishes are fully rebuilt. Our contractors manage the entire reconstruction process — permits, inspections, and final walkthrough.
