Exploring Fire and Smoke Restoration Options
Fires are stressful and can cause serious damage to your home or business. Elite Restoration is here to help you clean up, restore your property, and get life back to normal.
What To Do Right After a Fire
1. Stay Safe First
Do not go back inside until it is declared safe. Watch out for damaged structures, live wires, and gas leaks. If you are unsure, wait for professionals.
2. Call Emergency Services
Make sure the fire is fully out and report the incident to local authorities. They may also advise on inspections or permits if needed.
3. Document the Damage
Take photos and videos of all affected areas. This helps with insurance claims and guides the restoration work.
4. Contact Your Insurance Company
Notify your insurer as soon as possible. They will explain your cover, start the claim, and may ask for quotes from restoration companies.
Fire and Smoke Restoration Services
Cleanup and Debris Removal
Our team removes burnt materials, damaged items, ash, and loose debris so the area is safe to work in and inspect.
Structural Checks and Repairs
We assess the building for damage to walls, ceilings, floors, and roof. Any unsafe or weakened areas are flagged for repair or replacement.
Smoke and Soot Removal
Smoke and soot can spread through the whole property. We use professional tools and methods to clean surfaces, air vents, and hidden areas.
Odour Removal
Lingering smoke smells are treated using specialist techniques such as air filtration, fogging, or ozone treatment to freshen the air.
Water Damage From Firefighting
Water from hoses and sprinklers can soak carpets, walls, and contents. We extract water, dry the area, and help prevent mould growth.
Restoring Your Contents
Many items can be cleaned and restored instead of thrown away. This may include furniture, clothing, electronics, and sentimental items where possible.
Longer-Term Restoration Options
Repainting and Refinishing
After cleaning and repairs, repainting and refinishing surfaces helps your property look fresh, clean, and safe again.
Rebuilding and Renovations
If the damage is severe, some areas may need to be rebuilt. This can also be a chance to improve layout, materials, and finishes.
Improving Fire Safety
After a fire, it is a good time to upgrade safety: install or update smoke alarms, add fire extinguishers, consider fire-resistant materials, and review escape plans.
