Fire & Smoke Cleanup

Fires can be devastating, leaving your home or office in disarray. The first step in the fire and smoke cleanup process is to assess the damage. Our team of experts will evaluate the affected areas and develop a plan to restore your home or business back to normal.

How do we restore your property and its air quality?

• Material Removal: Before the start of the cleaning process, specific materials will have to be removed.
• Air Cleaning: We start by placing air scrubbers on the property. The air scrubbers will suck in the toxic air and move it through an industrial-level HEPA filter, which removes 99.99% of all poisonous particles and pollutants.
• Deodorization: Our trained technicians will start deodorizing your property by deploying ozone generators and hydroxyl units. These units are set up alongside the air cleaning units on the first day and continue to run until any odor is removed.
• Cleanup: Our expert cleanup team will be using a combination of air purifiers, cleaning chemicals, and deodorizers during the cleaning & restoration phase of the project. Chem-sponges are needed for this stage, as when you come into contact with particles and soot, it captures them.
• Final Odor Treatment: Before starting on the final repairs, we will have our specialists or our HVAC partner clean & sanitize your HVAC unit, then return it to its original operating state. This ensures any soot particles or smoke particles will not be present and circulating throughout the home when we turn it back on.
• Final Repairs: The final stage of the fire damage restoration process is the completion of repairs. Typically the repairs include painting and replacing materials and any other repair services required to return the property to its pre-loss state.

If your house has smoke damage, the first thing you should do is call a professional company that specializes in smoke restoration. They will be able to assess the damage and determine the best course of action for restoring your home. Smoke damage can be very extensive, so it is important to have a professional assess the situation and create a plan of action. If you try to clean up the smoke damage yourself, you may not be able to remove all of the soot and debris. This can lead to further damage down the road.

Calling a professional company that specializes in smoke restoration is the best way to ensure that your home is properly cleaned and restored. They will have the necessary equipment and experience to get the job done correctly and quickly.

Smoke damage is more than just a black film on surfaces or the lingering smell of smoke in your home. This type of damage can be harmful to your health and your home. The particles in smoke are very fine and can be inhaled deeply into your lungs. These particles can also aggravate existing respiratory conditions, such as asthma or emphysema. In addition to being harmful to your health, smoke damage can also damage your home. Smoke particles can penetrate deep into porous materials, like wood and drywall, causing them to discolor or warp. If not properly cleaned, smoke damage can cause long-term problems for your home and your health. 

After a fire, you will be left with fire and smoke damage. It is important to know if your insurance policy covers this type of damage.  Most homeowners insurance policies cover fire and smoke damage. However, there may be some limitations. For example, your policy might not cover fire and smoke damage if it was caused by negligence on your part. 

It is important to read your insurance policy carefully so that you know what is covered and what is not. If you have any questions, you should contact your insurance agent or company.  If your home has been damaged by fire or smoke, the first thing you should do is call a professional fire and smoke cleanup company.
