Your home doesn’t just get cleaned up—it gets completely restored. No lingering smoke odors that remind you of the worst day. No water damage from firefighting efforts that creates new problems months later. No soot stains that never quite disappear no matter what you try.
You get your actual home back. The one where your family feels safe again. Where you can breathe easy knowing every surface has been properly cleaned, every damaged material replaced, and every hidden issue addressed before it becomes a bigger problem.
Most importantly, you get your peace of mind back. Because when fire damage strikes your Whitefish Bay home, you need more than cleanup—you need complete restoration that lets you move forward without looking back.
We’ve been helping Wisconsin families recover from fire damage with the kind of expertise that only comes from years of working in this climate, with these building materials, in these communities.
We understand how Whitefish Bay’s older homes—many built in the 1940s—respond to fire and water damage differently than newer construction. We know which materials can be saved and which need complete replacement. We know how smoke travels through vintage ductwork and how water behaves in older subflooring.
Our team works directly with your insurance company because we’ve seen how complicated claims can get when adjusters don’t understand local building practices. We handle the documentation, the estimates, and the follow-up calls so you can focus on what matters most—getting your family back to normal.
First, we secure your property within hours of your call. This means boarding up damaged areas, tarping the roof if needed, and stopping any ongoing water damage from firefighting efforts. Every minute counts when it comes to preventing additional damage from turning a bad situation worse.
Next comes the complete assessment. We document everything for your insurance claim while identifying all the damage—including what you can’t see. Smoke travels through walls, water seeps into subflooring, and structural damage isn’t always obvious when you’re standing in your kitchen looking at the aftermath.
Then we get to work with the kind of thoroughness that actually matters. Soot and smoke removal using specialized equipment that eliminates odors instead of just masking them. Water extraction and drying that prevents mold growth three months from now. Content cleaning and restoration for belongings that can be saved. Finally, reconstruction that brings everything back to pre-loss condition—or better.
You stay informed every step of the way. No surprises, no delays you don’t know about, and no work that happens without your approval.

Fire damage restoration in Whitefish Bay isn’t just about cleaning up what you can see. It’s about addressing the smoke that traveled through your HVAC system, the water that soaked into hardwood floors during firefighting, and the soot that settled on surfaces throughout your home—even rooms that look untouched.
We handle structural repairs, content cleaning, odor elimination, and complete reconstruction. Your antique furniture gets the same attention as your drywall. Your family photos receive specialized cleaning just like your kitchen cabinets. Nothing gets overlooked because we understand what fire actually does to a home.
For Whitefish Bay homeowners, this comprehensive approach matters because your home values are significant—with median home values over $535,000, you need restoration that maintains your property’s worth. We work with local suppliers who understand Wisconsin building materials and weather patterns. Our reconstruction meets current codes while respecting your home’s original character and the neighborhood’s standards.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and can typically arrive at your Whitefish Bay home within hours of your call. Time is critical with fire damage—soot becomes chemically bonded to surfaces the longer it sits, and water from firefighting efforts can cause secondary damage if not addressed within 24-48 hours.
Our emergency response includes securing your property, stopping ongoing damage, and beginning the documentation process for your insurance claim. We understand that fire damage doesn’t wait for business hours, which is why our teams are always ready to respond day or night, weekends and holidays.
The faster we can start the restoration process, the more of your belongings we can typically save and the less extensive the overall damage becomes. Every hour matters in fire damage restoration.
Yes, we work directly with all major insurance companies and handle the entire claims process for you. This includes documenting all damage with detailed photos and measurements, providing comprehensive estimates that insurance adjusters understand, and managing all communication throughout the restoration process.
We use Xactimate and other insurance industry-standard software for estimates, which helps speed up claim approval significantly. Our team knows exactly what insurance companies need to see and how to present information in a way that gets your claim processed efficiently without delays or disputes.
You shouldn’t have to become an expert in insurance claims while dealing with fire damage to your home. We handle the paperwork, the negotiations, and the follow-up calls so you can focus on taking care of your family and getting your life back to normal.
Yes, we can eliminate smoke odors completely using specialized equipment and proven techniques designed specifically for fire damage restoration. This isn’t about covering up smells with air fresheners or ozone machines from the hardware store—we actually remove the microscopic particles that cause smoke odors.
Our odor elimination process includes thermal fogging, hydroxyl generators, and advanced air scrubbing depending on the extent of smoke penetration. We also clean or replace HVAC filters and ductwork where smoke particles hide and continue causing odors months after the fire.
We guarantee complete odor elimination. If you can still detect smoke smells after our restoration work is complete, we’ll return to address the issue at no additional charge. We don’t consider any job finished until the last trace of smoke odor is gone.
Most fire damage restoration projects in Whitefish Bay take 1-3 weeks from start to finish, depending on the extent of damage and whether major reconstruction is needed. The timeline depends on factors like the size of the affected area, the types of materials damaged, and how quickly your insurance company processes the claim.
Emergency services like securing the property and stopping ongoing damage happen immediately—usually within hours of your call. Cleaning and content restoration typically take 3-7 days for most homes. If reconstruction is needed for structural damage, that adds another 1-2 weeks depending on the scope of work required.
We provide detailed timelines upfront and send you regular updates throughout the process. While we work as quickly as possible to get you back home, we never rush the actual restoration work—proper fire damage repair takes time to do correctly the first time.
First, make sure everyone is safe and wait for the fire department to clear your home for entry. Don’t go inside until officials tell you it’s structurally safe—fire damage can weaken supports, and toxic fumes can linger even after flames are extinguished.
Call your insurance company to report the claim as soon as possible, then call us for emergency restoration services. Don’t attempt to clean anything yourself—improper cleaning techniques can actually set smoke and soot stains permanently and potentially void your insurance coverage.
Limit movement through the house to prevent tracking soot into unaffected areas. Don’t use your HVAC system until it’s been professionally inspected—smoke particles in ductwork can contaminate your entire home when the system runs. And don’t use regular household cleaners on fire damage—they often make the problem worse.
Absolutely. Water damage from firefighting efforts is often just as extensive as the fire damage itself, and it requires immediate attention to prevent mold growth and structural problems. We handle both fire and water damage restoration as part of our comprehensive service—no need to coordinate between multiple companies.
Our water damage restoration includes complete extraction, structural drying, dehumidification, and moisture monitoring to ensure everything is thoroughly dry. We use industrial-grade equipment to remove water from carpets, hardwood floors, walls, and other materials quickly and completely.
Fire and water damage restoration require different specialized techniques and equipment, but they often need to happen simultaneously in the same home. Having one experienced company handle both saves you time, reduces confusion, and ensures nothing gets overlooked in the restoration process.
