What should I do immediately after a house fire?

Your safety is the top priority. Once everyone is safe and the fire department has cleared the property, call your insurance company and a professional restoration service like Compleat Restorations. Do not re-enter the property until professionals have deemed it safe, as smoke damage and structural weakness can pose serious hazards.

Does insurance cover fire and smoke damage restoration?

Most standard homeowner's insurance policies cover fire and smoke damage restoration. Compleat Restorations works directly with all major insurance companies to streamline the claims process and help you get your home restored as quickly as possible.

How long does fire and smoke damage restoration take?

The timeline varies greatly depending on the extent of the fire, smoke, and water damage. A small kitchen fire might take a few days, while a major structural fire could take several months. We provide a detailed project timeline after our initial damage assessment.

Can smoke damage and odor be fully removed from my home?

Yes. Using specialized equipment including thermal foggers and ozone generators, our IICRC-certified technicians can effectively neutralize and eliminate smoke odors from your property and belongings, rather than simply masking them with deodorizers.

What does the fire damage restoration process involve?

The process includes emergency board-up and property securing, smoke and soot removal from all surfaces, odor elimination, structural cleaning and drying, content pack-out and professional cleaning of belongings, and finally full reconstruction to restore your home to its pre-loss condition.

Do you work with my insurance company?

Yes. Compleat Restorations has over 45 years of experience working with all major insurance companies. We help you navigate the claims process and provide the documentation needed to ensure your claim is handled efficiently and accurately.
