Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration

Our Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Process

A house fire is devastating, pure and simple. While a fire is not something you can fully prepare for in advance – mentally or physically – you can remain strong and take action. No matter how the fire started, no matter how bad the damage may seem, Restoration 1 will be there to provide fire and smoke damage restoration. Our experienced technicians go above and beyond for homeowners in this community. If you ever face the aftermath of a fire, know that we’re there for you too.

Our tried-and-tested process includes:

  • Removal – First of all, we remove any damaged or unsafe structural components, flooring, and furniture from the premises. We salvage what we can in the process.
  • Evaluation – Next, we evaluate the structure as a whole. A thorough evaluation is key to planning the restoration process. Some areas are likely more affected by the fire than others. Plus, there’s usually hidden damage that only pros can detect.
  • HVAC Removal or Repair – A residential HVAC system is also a perfect transportation method for smoke and soot. Whenever possible, we remove or restore the entire system to prevent further damage.
  • Cleanup – After a fire, walls may have crumbled, pipes may be leaking, and so on. It’s a bad situation. But don’t worry – we’ll clean up everything in this step, including any water damage.
  • Repairs – Next comes the repair process. Our technicians will fix up broken walls, destroyed flooring, bubbled ceilings and more.
  • Odors – Smoke and soot leave behind foul, potentially harmful odors. To improve indoor air quality and maintain safety, we treat these odors.
