After a devastating fire, finding the right fire damage restoration company is vital to returning your property to its pre-loss condition. While it’s natural to want to take a little time to make the right decision, the sooner you get an experienced professional on the job, the better. Soot and smoke are acidic and begin to discolor and degrade everything in your home in minutes. Within just hours, appliances and countertops begin to yellow. Within days, painted walls are permanently yellowed, metal becomes corroded and pitted, and wood furniture needs refinishing. The fumes can damage your lungs.

Careful Cleaning
Complete fire damage restoration involves careful cleaning of everything in your home that might have been affected. Loose soot and ash have to be carefully removed in a way that doesn’t return them to the air. Soot can quickly harden to a lacquer-like finish and needs special attention. Different methods and tools are used for different surfaces. Our technicians will use only the safest and most thorough procedures with all of your things.
Clothing and textiles can be sent out for professional laundering or dry cleaning. Other upholstery and carpets will have to be cleaned in place. We use specialized vacuum tools to remove residues and odors from soft surfaces. Some may simply have to be replaced.
Your fire damage restoration professional should complete a painstaking inspection of your HVAC system, including all of the ductwork. Any combustion residues that have infiltrated the ventilation infrastructure absolutely must be cleaned or sealed. We won’t allow nasty smells and residues to revisit you the first time you turn on your air conditioning.
Banish Odors
Smoky odors can infiltrate almost everything in your home. Cleaning can only do so much to eradicate rank smells that have permeated porous materials. Our fire damage restoration services have techniques and tools to get at difficult smells and eliminate them.
- Thermal fogging creates a chemical fog of a counteractant agent that will neutralize rank smells. The counteractant reaches its target by permeating the material in exactly the same way that the smoke did.
- Ozone generator treatment destroys stinky burning scents. The ozone actually breaks up smoke molecules. This is risky work, but we are up to the job.
- Sealants can further protect your family from any lingering combustion by-products. We’ll apply them to any suspect areas. This will effectively encapsulate forever any residual odors.
