As our name would suggest, we at Off Duty Fireman Construction Inc. have significant experience with fire and the damage it can do. In the unfortunate event that you suffer a house fire, you can count on our team to guide you through the fire damage restoration process as smoothly and quickly as possible so that you can return to your normal life. We understand that this process can be intimidating, so we have prepared this guide to the steps of fire damage restoration to help you know what to expect:
- Assessment- The first step of fire damage restoration is assessing the extent of the damage. This includes examining your home and yard, as well as your furnishings, for fire and smoke damage. Once we have a complete understanding of where and how much damage occurred, we can plan the best strategy to address it.
- Tarp and Sealing- Our next priority in fire damage restoration is to prevent the damage from getting worse. Fire damage often leaves holes in the walls or roof, which our team will seal off with tarps to prevent water damage from exacerbating the existing problems.
- Clean-Up- The next step of fire damage restoration is to clean your home of any dust, smoke, or soot from the fire. Fires can also lead to burst pipes and resulting water damage, so at this stage our team will also clear away any standing water.
- Repair and Renovation- Finally, our team will make all the necessary repairs to your home and restore it to its former glory. This can include not only the structure of the house but also features such as your cabinetry. We’ll leave your home looking and feeling even better than it did before the fire.
