Fire Damage Restoration Steps

You should never try to clean up the property on your own. There are many dangers after a fire, which you will need a professional to handle for you. We can inspect the building and take the steps needed to make your home safe again.

We use special processes to ensure the house is restored effectively after a fire. You can benefit from knowing what all of the steps look like, however. The following are the general steps we may follow:

1. The fire is put out, and the property is deemed safe to enter
2. We remove soot, ash, smoke, and debris
3. We minimize and stop the damage
4. We remove water and dry the building
5. We deodorize, clean, and sanitize the building
6. We manage possessions that are too damaged to restore

Since water is used to put out fires, your home will also be suffering from water damage. We must start drying your home right away so mold doesn’t spread throughout the structure. Moisture can soak into the walls and foundation of your property, meaning we need to act fast to save the integrity of your building.

While the steps are pretty straightforward, every situation is different. Advanced Restoration Solutions always responds to each emergency differently, with the required care and strategy needed to efficiently restore your property.

Safety With Fire Restoration

You will want to stay safe while we work on restoring your home. We observe all OSHA rules and regulations, including using the proper safety gear that you might not have access to. You also will want to be aware of the dangers so you don’t end up in a bad situation.

When fire burns objects, not everything is going to burn clean. Your building will be full of smoke, ash, and other waste that can be dangerous for you to handle. We recommend that you have us take care of the cleaning since we have resources you don’t have access to.

You can stir up soot into the air, where your body absorbs it through your lungs, eyes, or skin. This can cause several different health concerns that you want to avoid. Our team uses special masks and respirators to ensure that we don’t breathe in anything harmful.

Breathing in dangerous toxins can cause difficulty breathing, lung problems, cancer, and even death in the most extreme cases. We want to keep you safe at Advanced Restoration Solutions, so make sure to contact us right away for fire clean-up services!
