Fire damage services we offer in Orange County
Most fires need several of these. The same crew handles all of them, in the order the building needs.
Smoke and soot cleanup
Residue removed from walls, ceilings, fixtures and the duct system with the right method for each type of smoke, before it sets.
Fire damage cleanup and debris removal
Charred materials, debris and unsalvageable contents removed and documented, so the rebuild starts on a clean, safe structure.
Smoke odor removal
Odor traced to its source and removed from the ducts, the framing and the contents, then the air treated so it does not come back.
Emergency board-up and roof tarping
Broken windows, doors and roof openings closed the same day, so the building is secure and dry before the cleanup starts.
Water damage from firefighting
Extraction and drying of the water the fire hoses left in ceilings, walls and floors, run alongside the smoke cleanup.
Contents cleaning and pack-out
Furniture, clothing, documents and belongings inventoried, packed out, cleaned of smoke and stored until the house is ready.
Kitchen and small fire cleanup
Cleanup after a stove, oven, microwave or appliance fire: protein residue, grease smoke and the odor that spreads through the whole house.
What decides the price of fire damage services in Orange County
No two fires cost the same to clean up, and nobody can quote one over the phone honestly. These are the things the estimate is built from.
How far the smoke traveled
A contained kitchen fire and a fire whose smoke ran through the ductwork into every room are different jobs. The number of rooms with residue sets the labor.
The type of residue
Dry smoke from fast, hot fires wipes off. Wet smoke from smoldering plastics and protein residue from kitchen fires smear and need chemical cleaning.
What has to come out
Charred framing, drywall and insulation are removed by the square foot. Cabinets and flooring near the fire usually go too.
Contents
Furniture, clothing and belongings are cleaned, stored or listed for the claim, and each is priced by volume.
Odor and air treatment
Duct cleaning, sealing and ozone or hydroxyl treatment are added when the smoke went beyond the fire room.
Water damage
Drying equipment days for whatever the firefighting soaked.
Questions about our fire damage services
Is the assessment really free?
Yes. A technician walks the property, tests the residue in each room, photographs the damage and writes the scope and price. You decide after that.
Do you work with insurance companies?
We document every job to the standard adjusters expect and give you the photos, scope and inventory. Whether your claim is approved is between you and your insurer.
Do you do commercial buildings?
Yes: restaurants, offices, retail and apartment buildings. Tell us on the phone how many units or floors are affected.
Soot sets harder every day it sits
Acidic residue etches glass, corrodes metal and stains grout within days. One call gets the cleanup started while it still wipes off.
