What Emergency Services Aid Manhattan Fire Restoration?

Mitigation is a critical process for fire damaged homes and one that must begin immediately. With a team of fire restorers ready to respond 24/7, we can start emergency services as soon as we arrive at a compromised address. From inspections to debris removal, our initial actions are deliberate and focused on making restoration efficient.

What Makes Our Fire Restoration Efficient in Manhattan? 

After much of the mitigation completes, we still have the mindset to get you back into your property as soon as possible. Often, this means addressing the direst of concerns for the house, such as soot and smoke residues on surfaces. Ceilings and upper portions of walls often experience the worst of smoke soils, and solutions range from chem sponges to soda blasting to address these concerns.

What Smoke Remediation Options Exist for Manhattan Homes?

Smoke remediation might include soot removal, but it also targets odors that can make comfortable living impossible. With portable deodorizers like foggers or standalone units like hydroxyl generators, we can help remove harsh smells after a fire.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

If needed, we can begin the water removal process with powerful pumps and extraction units. This removes most of the water. We complete the water removal and drying process with industrial-strength dehumidifiers and air movers. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the process or restoring your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve relatively minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and painting, or it could include significant reconstruction of entire rooms.
