Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk.

• Grass and brush fires that spread to fences, outbuildings and homes

Soot, odor and water: three clocks running at once

Soot is acidic. Within hours it discolors plastics and countertops; within days it etches glass, pits metal and permanently stains grout. Smoke odor penetrates drywall, insulation and upholstered contents and becomes harder to remove each day. Meanwhile the water used to put out the fire is soaking into the same materials, starting the mold clock that every water loss faces.

That is why restoration companies in Springville aim to be on site within a day or two of the fire even when reconstruction will take months. Board-up protects the property; extraction and drying stop the water damage; and the first cleaning pass removes the most corrosive residue.

Our fire damage restoration process in Springville

1. Emergency contact and safety check. Once the fire department releases the property, the crew evaluates structural stability, utilities and air quality.
2. Board-up, tarping and security. Windows, doors and roof openings are sealed against weather, animals and intruders.
3. Suppression water cleanup. Extraction and drying equipment address the water left by firefighting.
4. Structural cleaning. Walls, ceilings, cabinets, fixtures and the HVAC system are cleaned using methods chosen for wet, dry or protein smoke.
5. Contents inventory, pack-out and cleaning. Salvageable belongings are documented, cleaned on or off site and stored; non-salvageable items are listed for the claim.
6. Deodorization at the source, sealing of framing and subfloor, and reconstruction of damaged areas to code.

Salvage versus replace

More than most people expect. Glass, ceramics, metal and sealed wood clean well. Many textiles are restorable with specialty laundering and ozone. Electronics that were not exposed to heat can often be cleaned and tested, and documents and photos can be freeze-dried. Items generally not salvageable include food and medicine exposed to heat or smoke, melted plastics, mattresses, particleboard furniture and heavily sooted drywall and insulation.

Pricing, estimates and insurance claims

The cost of fire damage restoration depends on the size of the fire, the type of smoke residue, how far it traveled through the building and how much of the structure and contents can be cleaned rather than replaced.

Fire is a named peril on standard policies. Expect the claim to involve a structural estimate, a contents inventory and, if you cannot stay in the home, additional living expense coverage.

Ask the crew to walk you through the estimate and the claim process; good documentation from day one is the best way to get a claim paid.
