When fire strikes your property in Brewer’s Hill, you’re not just dealing with flames—you’re facing smoke damage, water damage from firefighting efforts, and the overwhelming task of putting your life back together. You need more than cleanup; you need complete restoration that brings your property back to exactly how it was before the fire happened.
That’s what complete fire damage restoration looks like. Your home or business returned to pre-loss condition, with every trace of smoke odor eliminated and all structural damage properly repaired. No lingering reminders of what happened, no shortcuts that create problems later.
You get your space back, your routine back, and your peace of mind back—without the stress of coordinating multiple contractors or fighting with insurance companies over coverage.
We’re a family-owned business serving the Milwaukee metro area, including Brewer’s Hill’s unique mix of historic homes and modern properties. We understand that your neighborhood’s beautiful Italianate homes, Colonial Revivals, and converted loft buildings each present different restoration challenges.
As locals, we know Brewer’s Hill residents value quality work and straight answers. That’s exactly what you get—no overselling, no unnecessary delays, and no surprise costs that weren’t discussed upfront.
We’ve built our reputation in this community by treating every fire damage situation with the urgency it deserves and the expertise it requires.
When you call us, we arrive quickly to assess the full extent of fire and smoke damage—including areas you might not think to check. Our technicians document everything for your insurance claim while securing your property against further damage.
Next, we handle the immediate safety concerns: removing damaged materials, extracting any water from firefighting efforts, and setting up equipment to begin the drying and deodorization process. We’re not just cleaning up what you can see; we’re addressing smoke penetration in walls, HVAC systems, and other hidden areas.
Throughout the restoration, we keep you informed about progress and timeline. Once the mitigation is complete, we coordinate with reconstruction specialists to rebuild any structural elements, ensuring your property meets current building codes and safety standards.

Our fire damage restoration covers every aspect of recovery: emergency board-up and tarping, smoke and soot removal, water extraction from firefighting efforts, structural drying, odor elimination, and personal property cleaning. We handle the insurance documentation and work directly with your adjuster to ensure proper coverage.
In Brewer’s Hill, where many properties feature original hardwood floors and period details, we take special care to preserve and restore these unique elements whenever possible. We understand that these aren’t just houses—they’re homes with character and history that can’t be replaced.
You also get assistance with temporary housing arrangements if needed, contents cleaning and storage, and coordination with specialty contractors for items like antique restoration or custom millwork replacement.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and typically arrive within 90 minutes of your call. Time is critical after a fire because damage continues to spread even after flames are extinguished—smoke continues to penetrate materials, and water from firefighting efforts can cause secondary damage if not addressed quickly.
Our rapid response team immediately secures your property, begins damage assessment, and starts the mitigation process to prevent further loss. We understand that fires don’t happen on a convenient schedule, which is why we’re available around the clock, including weekends and holidays.
Most homeowners insurance policies do cover fire damage, including structural repairs, contents cleaning, smoke damage remediation, and temporary living expenses. However, the extent of coverage can vary significantly based on your specific policy terms and deductibles.
We work directly with your insurance company to document all damage, provide detailed estimates, and ensure you receive the full coverage you’re entitled to under your policy. Our team handles the insurance paperwork and communicates with adjusters throughout the process, so you don’t have to navigate the claims process alone while dealing with the stress of fire damage.
Smoke odor elimination requires specialized equipment and techniques that go far beyond typical cleaning methods. We use industrial-grade ozone generators, thermal fogging, and hydroxyl generators to neutralize odor molecules at the source, not just mask them with fragrances.
The process includes cleaning all surfaces with specialized detergents, treating HVAC systems and ductwork, and using advanced air filtration systems with HEPA and activated carbon filters. We also treat porous materials like drywall, insulation, and subflooring that may have absorbed smoke particles. Our goal is complete odor elimination—when we’re finished, there should be no lingering reminders of the fire.
First, ensure everyone is safe and the fire department has declared the scene secure before entering the property. Contact your insurance company to report the claim as soon as possible—most insurers have 24-hour claim reporting lines.
If it’s safe to do so, take photos of the damage for your records, but don’t attempt to clean anything yourself. Fire residue can be hazardous, and improper cleaning can actually set stains and odors permanently. Avoid using any electrical appliances or systems until they’ve been inspected, and don’t eat any food that may have been exposed to smoke or heat.
The timeline depends on the extent of damage, but most fire restoration projects take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Minor smoke damage might be resolved in 1-2 weeks, while major structural fires requiring reconstruction can take 2-4 months or longer.
The mitigation phase (securing the property, removing damaged materials, drying, and deodorization) typically takes 1-2 weeks. Reconstruction timelines depend on the scope of work needed and permit requirements. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated throughout the process, so you can make appropriate arrangements for temporary housing or business operations.
Many personal belongings can be successfully restored using specialized cleaning techniques, even items that initially appear to be total losses. We evaluate each item individually and use methods like ultrasonic cleaning, dry cleaning, and ozone treatment to remove smoke residue and odors.
Items we frequently restore include clothing, electronics, artwork, documents, and furniture. We pack out restorable items and clean them at our facility or specialized restoration partners, then return them to you once your property restoration is complete. However, some items may be beyond restoration due to heat damage or contamination—we’ll provide honest assessments and work with your insurance company to ensure proper replacement coverage for total losses.
