You need restoration that goes beyond surface cleaning. Our complete fire damage repair process eliminates smoke odors, removes soot from every surface, extracts hidden water, and repairs structural damage so you can move forward with confidence.

Your Historic Third Ward property represents a significant investment. We protect that investment with thorough restoration that preserves both the structural integrity and historic character that makes this neighborhood special.

Fire Damage Restoration Process Milwaukee

Straightforward Process, Complete Results

Our fire damage repair starts with immediate damage assessment. We arrive within hours to evaluate fire, smoke, and water damage, then secure your property to prevent further deterioration.

Next comes water extraction and drying. Fire departments use thousands of gallons to extinguish flames, and that water needs immediate removal to prevent mold growth and structural damage.

We then tackle smoke and soot removal using specialized equipment that reaches into walls, ductwork, and hidden spaces where odors linger. This isn’t surface cleaning—it’s complete decontamination.

Finally, we handle structural repairs and reconstruction. From drywall replacement to major rebuilding projects, we restore your property to pre-loss condition or better.

We also handle all insurance documentation and work directly with your insurance company to ensure proper coverage. Our comprehensive service means you work with one team from initial damage assessment through final reconstruction.

Smoke odor elimination requires specialized equipment and techniques that go far beyond surface cleaning. We use thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and hydroxyl generators to neutralize odors at the molecular level.

Our process includes cleaning and sealing all affected surfaces, replacing contaminated insulation, cleaning ductwork and HVAC systems, and treating contents with specialized deodorizing agents. Smoke particles penetrate porous materials like drywall, wood, and fabric, so we address these hidden sources of odor.

For Historic Third Ward properties with older construction, we pay special attention to areas where smoke can hide, including between walls, in crawl spaces, and within the building envelope. Complete odor elimination typically takes 3-7 days depending on the extent of smoke damage.

Most homeowner’s and commercial property insurance policies include coverage for fire damage restoration, including both direct fire damage and water damage from firefighting efforts. However, coverage specifics vary by policy and insurance company.

Yes, our fire damage restoration service includes complete water damage restoration from firefighting efforts. Fire departments often use thousands of gallons of water to extinguish flames, and this water can cause as much damage as the fire itself if not properly addressed.
