Madeira Beach fire damage cleanup

Fire losses we see in Madeira Beach

In Madeira Beach, kitchen and electrical fires send smoke through open floor plans and into attics and ductwork. We board up, extract firefighting water, clean soot, and treat odor after the residue is gone.

Madeira Beach is a barrier-island city at John's Pass. Helene's surge in 2024 flooded homes and businesses across the city. The U.S. Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimates about 3,931 residents in Madeira Beach. The median year of construction is about 1973, so a large share of the housing stock predates modern Florida Building Code wind and water standards. Madeira Beach is on a barrier island exposed to Gulf storm surge and wind-driven rain. Recent hurricanes have pushed water into ground floors and low streets. Condo and multi-unit buildings in Madeira Beach share walls, ceilings, and HVAC, so one unit's water or smoke often reaches neighbors.

Right after the fire

• Take photos and report the claim.
• Do not use electrical items that got wet or hot.
• Change your clothes and wash your hands after walking through soot.

Our fire and smoke process

1. Remove soot with HEPA vacuums and the right cleaning chemistry for each surface.
2. Wipe down HVAC components so the system does not keep spreading residue.
3. Take out burned or heavily smoked materials that will keep smelling.
4. Deodorize at the end, never as a cover for residue, and only in empty spaces when ozone is used.
5. Keep a full photo record and written scope for the claim.
