Our fire and smoke process

1. Secure the building with board-up so it is closed to weather and entry.
2. Pull out the water from the hoses and dry walls, floors, and insulation.
3. Wipe down HVAC components so the system does not keep spreading residue.
4. Remove charred or smoke-saturated materials that cannot be cleaned.
5. Photograph and document everything for your insurer.
