Our Proven Fire & Smoke Restoration Process

Every fire is different, but our systematic approach ensures complete recovery with safety, speed, and precision.

1. Inspection & Damage Assessment

We assess fire, smoke, heat, and water damage across your structure. We use thermal imaging, moisture meters, and air quality monitors to create a full restoration plan.

2. Emergency Board-Up & Roof Tarping

We secure broken windows, doors, and compromised roofs to protect your property from further weather or vandalism damage.

3. Water Extraction & Structural Drying

If water was used to extinguish the fire, we use commercial-grade extractors, dehumidifiers, and air movers to fully dry the structure and prevent mold.

4. Smoke & Soot Removal

We use HEPA vacuums, dry chemical sponges, and media blasting (e.g., soda or dry ice blasting) to remove soot from walls, ceilings, surfaces, and ductwork.

5. Odor Elimination

Using thermal foggers, hydroxyl generators, and ozone treatments, we neutralize even the most stubborn smoke odors embedded in materials.

6. Contents Cleaning & Restoration

Salvageable furniture, electronics, and personal items are professionally cleaned, deodorized, and stored off-site if needed.

7. Reconstruction & Final Touches

We handle drywall replacement, painting, flooring, roofing, and full reconstruction to restore your space to pre-fire condition.

FAQs – Fire & Smoke Restoration

Yes. Smoke and soot particles often get drawn into your vents and ductwork, spreading odors and toxins throughout your home. We offer complete HVAC cleaning.

It depends on the extent of damage. Small fires may take 3–7 days, while large fires may take several weeks, especially if reconstruction is required.

Yes. We have extensive experience restoring fire-damaged restaurants, retail stores, warehouses, apartment buildings, and offices. We work discreetly, efficiently, and can often help you reopen faster with minimal downtime.

Immediately. The longer smoke and soot sit on surfaces, the more permanent the damage becomes. Acidic soot can start etching glass, discoloring walls, and corroding metal within hours. We recommend starting cleanup within the first 24 hours whenever possible.

Our service includes a complete inspection, emergency board-up if needed, water extraction (from fire suppression), soot and smoke cleanup, odor removal, air quality treatment, and full restoration or repairs. We handle everything from debris removal to structural rebuilds.

Absolutely. Smoke can travel through vents, attics, crawl spaces, and behind walls—affecting areas far from the fire’s origin. Even if a room appears untouched, it may still have harmful residues and odors that require professional remediation.

We strongly advise against DIY cleanup. Smoke residue is often toxic, and improper cleaning can push soot deeper into surfaces. Additionally, certain areas may be structurally unsafe. Our certified professionals use specialized equipment and HEPA-grade cleaning systems to ensure safe, thorough cleanup.

Smaller jobs with minor smoke damage may take 2–5 days. Severe fires requiring structural repairs or rebuilds can take several weeks. After our initial inspection, we’ll give you a clear timeline based on your specific situation.
