The Process of One Fire Damage Restoration Company
They meticulously evaluated the structural integrity, fire and smoke damage, and any water damage caused by firefighting efforts.
The crew immediately secured the property by boarding up windows and doors and ensuring the roof’s stability.
Next came a controlled demolition of unsalvageable structures. Walls, roof sections, or flooring heavily impacted by the fire were meticulously removed, and all debris removal followed strict protocols for safe disposal, including proper handling of hazardous materials like asbestos.
Water damage from firefighting was addressed with specialized equipment. Dehumidifiers, air movers, and strategic ventilation techniques ensured a thorough drying process throughout the structure.
Advanced cleaning methods, including HEPA air filtration systems and targeted solutions, were then employed to eliminate smoke and soot residue from walls, ceilings, and the home’s contents.
With the structure dried and free of contaminants, the restoration and reconstruction phase began. This involved rebuilding damaged walls, replacing flooring, and meticulously restoring electrical and plumbing systems.
Content restoration services also came into play. Smoke and fire damage can often impact furniture, clothing, and other possessions, and the team addressed these with specialized techniques to salvage and clean belongings within the house.
The entire process was completed efficiently, considering the extent of the damage.
