Elite Restoration recently completed fire and smoke damage work across 9 rooms in Rokeby TAS 7019. The job was documented room by room during September 2026, and the photos that go with this update show some of the conditions the team found and dealt with.

One of the photos shows brownish water staining on a white wall above dark carpet, close to the skirting board. Staining like this is common in smoke-affected rooms, where residue settles on surfaces and can look different from one area to the next. Carpet is another area that needs careful assessment. A second photo shows grey carpet with a faint darker patch, which is the sort of detail that is easy to miss in normal light and becomes clearer when the floor is inspected closely.
Drying and moisture checks are part of the process on many jobs of this kind. A third photo shows a blue air mover running in a dark carpeted room, with a moisture probe pushed into the carpet to check readings. Work of this type is carried out in line with IICRC S700 for fire and smoke restoration, with the aim of assessing and cleaning affected surfaces methodically rather than guessing at the extent of the damage. Where carpet and textile floor cleaning is involved, the work also follows IICRC S100.

Fire and smoke damage can spread further than the room where the fire started. Smoke particles travel through ceilings, wall cavities and floor coverings, and residue can remain on surfaces that look clean at first glance. For households and businesses in Rokeby and the surrounding area, a thorough assessment of every affected room helps show what has been affected and what needs to be restored.
