How fires start in Boca Grande homes
Older and historic homes in Boca Grande absorb smoke into wood framing and plaster. Residue removal comes before odor treatment.
Boca Grande is the historic village on Gasparilla Island, reached by a causeway from Placida. The village is in Lee County, and the north end of the island is in Charlotte County. Boca Grande sits on a barrier island between the Gulf and the bay or Intracoastal Waterway. Many Boca Grande homes are used seasonally, so a leak can run for days before anyone notices.
What we do after a Boca Grande fire
- Board up broken windows and doors and secure the property.
- Clean HVAC components before the system runs again.
- Take out burned or heavily smoked materials that will keep smelling.
- Deodorize at the end, never as a cover for residue, and only in empty spaces when ozone is used.
- Keep a full photo record and written scope for the claim.
Who pays, and who keeps the claim
Your policy decides what is paid. We give your adjuster photos, a written scope, and a record of board-up and cleanup. We are not a public adjuster and do not take over your claim.
Before we arrive
- Leave soot alone. Wiping pushes it into surfaces.
- Do not run the AC; it carries soot through the ducts.
- Change your clothes and wash your hands after walking through soot.

Common questions
Fire and smoke damage restoration questions in Boca Grande
What happens after a fire in Boca Grande?
After the fire department releases the scene, call (239) 688-2880. We board up, extract firefighting water, clean soot, wipe down HVAC components, and treat odor after residue is removed.
Who cleans up fire and smoke damage in Boca Grande?
Aftermath Restoration Group handles fire and smoke restoration in Boca Grande and across Lee County, 24/7. Call (239) 688-2880 for board-up, soot cleanup, odor removal, and drying of firefighting water.
Can smoke odor be fully removed from a Boca Grande home?
Only if the residue is removed, not masked. The process is structural cleaning, HVAC cleaning, HEPA filtration, and odor treatment at the end, with ozone used only in unoccupied spaces.
Why does soot need to be cleaned quickly?
Soot is acidic. On metal, stone, grout, and paint it starts to etch and stain, and the longer it sits the more has to be replaced instead of cleaned.
Do you handle commercial fire damage in Boca Grande?
Yes. We clean soot, remove odor, dry firefighting water, and board up openings for offices, restaurants, and retail spaces in Boca Grande, 24/7.
