Flood Guys Restoration has been Fox Point’s trusted fire damage restoration company, serving homeowners throughout Milwaukee County as a local, family-owned business. We’ve built our reputation responding to emergencies when seconds count—fire, water, mold, and storm damage restoration.
Fox Point homeowners choose us because we understand Wisconsin properties inside and out. Your area’s mix of historic homes and modern construction each present unique fire restoration challenges. Older homes often have materials requiring specialized cleaning techniques, while newer builds have complex HVAC systems needing professional decontamination.
We don’t just show up and start working. Our team explains every step, coordinates directly with your insurance adjuster, and keeps you informed throughout the entire restoration process. When your neighbors face similar disasters, they call us because we’ve proven we treat every Fox Point home like our own family lives there.
We start with a comprehensive damage assessment using thermal imaging and moisture detection equipment to find hidden fire, smoke, and water damage throughout your property. Our certified technicians identify problems invisible to the naked eye—damage that causes major issues weeks later if missed.
Next, we secure your property and extract any standing water from firefighting efforts. We remove unsalvageable materials and begin the drying process immediately to prevent mold growth. This phase typically takes 24-48 hours but prevents thousands in additional damage.
The cleaning phase eliminates smoke and soot using hydroxyl generators, ozone treatment, and specialized cleaning compounds that neutralize odor molecules at the source. Finally, we handle all structural repairs and reconstruction, restoring your Fox Point home to pre-fire condition using materials that meet current Wisconsin building codes and often exceed your original construction quality.

Our fire damage restoration covers everything from emergency response through final reconstruction. We handle smoke odor elimination, soot removal, water extraction, structural drying, content cleaning, and complete rebuilding services under one roof.
Fox Point’s housing mix—from charming 1920s homes near the lake to modern builds in newer developments—means every fire presents different challenges. Historic properties often have materials requiring gentle, specialized restoration techniques. Newer homes may have synthetic materials that create toxic smoke requiring advanced air purification systems.
We work as your advocate with insurance companies, documenting every aspect of damage with detailed photos and estimates. Our team understands Wisconsin building codes and coordinates with local inspectors to ensure repairs exceed current standards. You won’t manage multiple contractors—we handle everything from emergency board-up through your final walk-through inspection.
We provide 24/7 emergency fire damage response to Fox Point and typically arrive on-site within 60-90 minutes of your call. Every hour counts after a fire—smoke continues penetrating deeper into materials, water from firefighting efforts promotes mold growth, and structural damage can worsen without immediate attention.
Our emergency response team immediately secures your property with board-up services, stops additional damage with tarping and water extraction, and begins the restoration process. We maintain fully-equipped trucks and certified technicians on-call around the clock because fire doesn’t wait for business hours.
The faster we can stabilize your property and begin restoration, the more we can save and the sooner your family returns to normal life. Quick response often means the difference between cleaning and complete replacement of damaged materials.
Fire damage restoration goes far beyond cleaning visible soot and smoke damage. We address water damage from firefighting efforts, which often causes as much destruction as the fire itself. Our services include structural drying, mold prevention, and complete water extraction using commercial-grade equipment.
Smoke odor removal requires specialized techniques—ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and thermal fogging that neutralizes odor molecules embedded deep in porous materials. We also clean and restore personal belongings using ultrasonic cleaning, dry ice blasting, and document recovery techniques.
Structural repairs often become necessary because intense heat weakens support beams, damages electrical systems, and compromises building integrity. We handle everything from minor drywall replacement to complete reconstruction, coordinating with your insurance company and ensuring all work meets current Wisconsin building codes.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies provide comprehensive coverage for fire damage restoration, including cleanup, repairs, and temporary living expenses while work is completed. However, policy details vary significantly, and the claims process can become overwhelming during an already stressful time.
We work directly with insurance adjusters as your advocate, providing detailed documentation, professional estimates, and clear communication throughout the claims process. Our team knows how to present restoration plans insurance companies understand and approve quickly.
We handle all paperwork, provide extensive photo documentation, and communicate regularly with your adjuster to prevent delays. This approach removes the claims burden from you and typically results in faster approvals and fair settlements that cover complete restoration costs.
Smoke odor elimination requires advanced techniques that go far beyond standard cleaning methods. Smoke particles are microscopic and penetrate deep into porous materials—drywall, insulation, wood framing, and personal belongings. Simple cleaning or air fresheners only mask odors temporarily.
We use industrial-grade hydroxyl generators and ozone machines that break down odor molecules at the molecular level. Our process includes applying specialized sealants that prevent odors from bleeding through new paint and finishes. We also clean HVAC systems thoroughly because smoke circulates through ductwork and can recontaminate treated areas.
Complete odor removal often requires removing heavily contaminated materials like carpet padding, insulation, and damaged drywall. We test air quality throughout the process and don’t consider the job complete until your home passes strict odor-detection standards. The result is a home that smells completely fresh—not masked or covered up.
Many personal belongings can be successfully restored using specialized cleaning techniques, even when they appear severely damaged. We evaluate each item individually and use different restoration methods based on material type and damage level—often saving items families thought were total losses.
Electronics frequently can be restored using ultrasonic cleaning and specialized decontamination processes that remove smoke residue from circuit boards. Clothing and textiles may require ozone treatment, specialized dry cleaning, or freeze-drying techniques. Important documents can often be recovered using document restoration services that separate pages and remove smoke damage.
We carefully pack and inventory all salvageable items, transport them to our specialized cleaning facility, and return them once restoration is complete. Items that cannot be successfully restored are thoroughly documented with photos for insurance purposes. Our goal is saving everything possible while being completely honest about realistic restoration outcomes.
Fire damage restoration timelines vary significantly based on damage extent, affected square footage, and repair complexity required. Minor smoke damage in a single room might be resolved within 3-5 days, while major structural damage requiring reconstruction can take 4-8 weeks or longer.
Our initial assessment provides a realistic timeline specific to your situation, broken down by phases. Emergency services like water extraction and property securing happen immediately. Cleaning and deodorization typically require 5-10 days, while structural repairs and reconstruction timelines depend on the scope of work and permit requirements.
We provide weekly progress updates and coordinate closely with contractors, building inspectors, and your insurance company to maintain project momentum. Our goal is restoring your Fox Point home as quickly as possible while ensuring every detail meets our quality standards and exceeds Wisconsin building codes for your family’s long-term safety.
