Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration – What We Do
When fire or smoke affects your property, the damage can go far beyond what you can see. Soot, smoke odours, and hidden contamination can impact air quality, building materials, and the health of occupants.
At Elite Restoration, we provide end-to-end fire and smoke damage restoration, following the ANSI/IICRC S700 Standard for Professional Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration and S520/S500 where water or mould are also involved.
Our team responds quickly, works safely, and restores your property with a structured, fully compliant plan tailored to your site.
Our Fire & Smoke Restoration Process
Emergency Site Assessment & Safety Checks
We begin with an immediate on-site assessment to ensure the area is safe to enter. This includes checking structural stability, identifying hazards, and determining the type of fire residue (dry soot, wet soot, protein residues, synthetic residues), as required by the S700 standard.
Soot & Residue Removal
Smoke residue can spread through the entire building, including air-conditioning and ceiling spaces. We use specialised tools, HEPA vacuums, and industry-approved cleaning methods to remove soot safely from:
- Walls and ceilings
- Fixtures and fittings
- Carpets and flooring
Odour Neutralisation
Smoke odours can cling to surfaces long after the fire is out. We apply targeted odour-control methods such as:
- Thermal fogging
- Ozone or hydroxyl treatment
- Deep cleaning of affected materials
These help remove odours at the source, not just cover them up.
Structural Drying & Sanitisation
Firefighting often results in significant water damage. Our technicians follow the IICRC S500 process for water extraction, moisture mapping, drying, and sanitation to prevent secondary issues such as mould growth.
Content Recovery & Disposal Coordination
We sort, clean, and restore salvageable items and organise proper disposal of unsalvageable materials. All items are handled carefully, photographed, and documented for insurance purposes.
Ongoing Compliance Reporting & Documentation
Every step of the process is recorded — including moisture readings, air quality assessments, photos, and work reports. This ensures compliance with insurers, property managers, and workplace health and safety requirements.
