​What does fire and smoke damage restoration include?

Fire and smoke damage restoration begins with an assessment of the affected structure, surfaces, contents, and safety concerns. Depending on the extent of the damage, emergency securement may also be needed to cover openings and protect the property.

Restoration services may include soot and smoke residue removal, odor elimination, structural cleaning, air purification, air duct cleaning, and cleaning for furniture, upholstery, electronics, and other belongings. Heavily affected contents may be inventoried, packed, cleaned, and stored during restoration. Damaged flooring, drywall, insulation, and other materials may also require repair or replacement.
