Below is a detailed overview of our full-service restoration process.

Phase 1: 24/7 Emergency Response – Your First Call for Help

A fire is an emergency that doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. The first 48 hours are critical to preventing further damage. Our team is on standby 24/7, ready to act the moment you call.

• Emergency Board-Up & Roof Tarping:  A fire can leave your property exposed and vulnerable. Our first priority upon arrival is to secure your home or business. We professionally board-up any compromised windows, doors, or walls and apply heavy-duty tarps to damaged roofs. This crucial step protects your property from weather, prevents unauthorized entry, and secures it from further liability.
• Emergency Water Extraction:  The water used by firefighters can cause devastating secondary damage, including warped structures and mold growth. Our crews use powerful, industrial-grade pumps and vacuums to immediately begin extracting standing water, a critical first step in the drying process.
• Structural Shoring and Stabilization:  We quickly assess the structural integrity of your property. If any load-bearing walls or supports have been compromised, we install temporary shoring and bracing to prevent collapse and ensure the site is safe for you and our restoration teams.
• 
  

Phase 2: Detailed Assessment & Strategic Planning

Once your property is secure, we conduct a thorough assessment to create a precise roadmap for restoration. This planning phase is essential for an efficient and successful recovery and is critical for your insurance claim.

• Comprehensive Damage Assessment:  Our IICRC-certified technicians inspect every inch of the property to determine the full extent of fire, smoke, and soot damage. We use advanced tools and techniques to identify not only visible damage but also hidden issues, such as smoke that has traveled through ventilation systems or into wall cavities.
• Insurance Claim Assistance & Documentation:  Navigating an insurance claim can be one of the most stressful parts of the process. We relieve that burden by working directly with your insurance provider. We provide meticulous documentation, detailed photos, and the precise estimates required to process your claim fairly and efficiently, advocating for you every step of the way.
• Content Pack-Out & Inventory:  Your belongings are important. We carefully inventory and pack out any salvageable items—from furniture and electronics to documents and heirlooms—and transport them to our secure, climate-controlled facility for specialized cleaning and restoration.
• 
  

Phase 3: Meticulous Cleanup, Decontamination & Deodorization

This is the core of the restoration process, where our specialized training and equipment make all the difference. We don’t just clean the surface; we eliminate all traces of damage to make your property safe and healthy again.

• Soot and Smoke Residue Removal: Soot is acidic and requires a specific scientific approach for safe removal. Our team is trained to handle all types of soot (from dry to greasy) and uses specialized cleaning agents and techniques to safely remove it from all surfaces without causing further smearing or damage.
• Smoke Odor Removal and Deodorization:  Smoke particles are microscopic and can penetrate nearly any material, leaving behind a pervasive, unpleasant odor. We use advanced deodorization technologies like   Thermal Fogging and   Ozone Treatments  to attack and neutralize odor molecules at their source, permanently eliminating the smell from your property.
• Air Scrubbing and HEPA Filtration: The air quality inside a property after a fire can be hazardous. We utilize industrial-grade air scrubbers with HEPA filters to capture and remove 99.97% of airborne particles, including soot, allergens, and other contaminants, making the air safe to breathe again.
• HVAC and Duct System Cleaning: Your ventilation system can harbor and spread soot and odors throughout the property. We perform a deep cleaning of all ductwork, vents, and HVAC components to ensure a clean air supply and prevent re-contamination.
• 
  

Phase 4: Complete Restoration & Reconstruction

With the property clean, dry, and deodorized, our skilled craftsmen begin the final phase: rebuilding. We are a full-service provider, managing the entire reconstruction process to bring your vision for your restored property to life.
