Fire doesn’t just burn – it leaves behind smoke that penetrates everything, soot that coats surfaces, and water damage from firefighting efforts. You’re dealing with multiple problems that get worse by the hour.
Our fire damage restoration eliminates every trace of smoke odor from your St. Francis property. Your family breathes clean air. Your business operates without customers noticing anything happened. Your insurance claim gets handled properly the first time.
You won’t spend weeks wondering if hidden damage will cause problems later. We find it, fix it, and guarantee our work so you can move forward with confidence.
We serve St. Francis as a family-owned restoration company. We’ve handled fire damage in homes near Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport, lakefront properties, and everything in between.
St. Francis sits between Lake Michigan and Milwaukee, creating unique restoration challenges. Lake humidity affects drying times. Airport proximity means specific building codes. Older neighborhoods have different structural considerations than newer developments.
We know these local factors because we live and work here. When you call us, you get technicians who understand St. Francis properties and the fastest way to restore them properly.
We start with a complete damage assessment – fire damage, smoke penetration, and water damage from firefighting. This inspection identifies problems you can’t see that could cost thousands later if missed.
Water extraction happens immediately. Firefighting water often causes more damage than the original fire. We remove every drop and start industrial drying to prevent mold growth in St. Francis’s humid climate.
Smoke and soot removal requires specialized equipment most companies don’t have. We use industrial-grade tools to eliminate particles from surfaces, air ducts, and porous materials. This step determines whether your property truly feels normal again.
Structural repairs and reconstruction complete the process. We don’t just make it look good – we restore full structural integrity and safety. You get your property back exactly as it was before the fire.

Fire damage restoration in St. Francis requires handling multiple types of damage simultaneously. We provide structural repairs, smoke odor elimination, soot cleanup, water damage mitigation, and contents restoration in one coordinated effort.
St. Francis properties face specific challenges due to Lake Michigan’s influence on humidity and weather patterns. These conditions affect drying times and mold prevention strategies. We adjust our restoration methods for local climate conditions most contractors ignore.
Insurance coordination is included in every fire restoration project. St. Francis homeowners often discover their policies cover temporary housing, contents cleaning, and additional living expenses they didn’t know about. We help you access every benefit you’re entitled to receive.

We provide 24/7 emergency fire damage response in St. Francis with typical arrival times under 90 minutes. Fire damage gets worse every hour you wait, so speed matters more than convenience.
Smoke continues penetrating materials long after flames are extinguished. Soot becomes harder to remove as it sets. Water from firefighting efforts starts causing mold problems within 24 hours in St. Francis’s humid climate near Lake Michigan.
When you call our emergency line, we immediately dispatch a crew to secure your property and begin damage control. We don’t wait for business hours or convenient timing because fire damage doesn’t either.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover fire damage restoration, including smoke cleanup and water damage from firefighting efforts. The key is documenting everything properly and knowing what your specific policy covers.
We work directly with insurance adjusters to ensure complete damage documentation and proper claims processing. Many St. Francis homeowners are surprised to learn their coverage includes temporary housing, contents restoration, and additional living expenses during restoration.
Our estimates use insurance-approved software that speeds up claims approval. We’ve handled hundreds of insurance claims and know exactly what documentation adjusters require for full coverage approval.
Complete smoke odor elimination requires removing the source particles, not just masking smells. We use industrial ozone generators, hydroxyl machines, and thermal fogging to destroy odor molecules at the source.
The process starts with thorough soot and smoke residue removal from all surfaces. Then we clean your HVAC system and ductwork where smoke particles hide. Finally, we use advanced deodorization techniques that neutralize remaining odor molecules in porous materials.
Proper odor elimination takes 3-7 days depending on smoke penetration. We don’t consider the job complete until you can’t detect any trace of smoke smell anywhere in your property.
Complete fire damage restoration addresses structural fire damage, smoke damage throughout the property, and water damage from firefighting efforts. Each requires different techniques and equipment for proper restoration.
Structural repairs handle burned materials, heat damage, and safety issues from the fire itself. Smoke damage restoration eliminates residue and odors that spread far beyond the fire location. Water damage mitigation prevents mold growth from firefighting water.
We also handle contents restoration, cleaning salvageable belongings affected by smoke or water. Many items can be saved with proper professional cleaning that homeowners assume are total losses.
Fire damage restoration timelines vary based on damage extent, but most St. Francis properties are fully restored within 2-4 weeks. Emergency services start immediately, while full restoration follows a systematic process that can’t be rushed safely.
Water extraction and structural drying typically require 3-5 days. Smoke and soot cleanup adds 3-7 days depending on penetration. Structural repairs and reconstruction vary based on the scope of work needed for your specific property.
We provide detailed timelines upfront and update you regularly throughout the process. Rushing restoration work often leads to problems later, so we focus on doing it right the first time while minimizing disruption to your life.
Yes, water damage from firefighting is a standard part of our fire damage restoration service. This water often causes more extensive damage than the original fire if not addressed immediately and properly.
Firefighting water contains contaminants and soaks into flooring, walls, and belongings. In St. Francis’s humid climate near Lake Michigan, this creates ideal conditions for rapid mold growth within 24-48 hours if not properly dried.
We extract all standing water, thoroughly dry affected areas with industrial equipment, and monitor moisture levels throughout the process. Fire-related water damage receives the same urgent attention as fire and smoke damage because all three threaten your property’s safety and value.
