Service Overview

How We Approach It

After the fire department leaves, the real work starts. Soot is acidic — it etches into surfaces it sits on. Hours matter. Our Roselle Park crew dispatches with HEPA equipment and content-cleaning capacity within the same hour as the call.

What's Included

  • Soot + smoke odor removal
  • HVAC decontamination
  • Pack-out + content cleaning
  • Hydroxyl odor treatment
  • Structural rebuild
  • Insurance-scope documentation

Content Pack-out: When to Move Your Stuff Out

For significant fires, content pack-out is the standard approach. We catalog and box everything in the affected area, transport it to our cleaning facility, sort by material type (washables / dry-clean / electronics / hard surfaces / unsalvageable), clean each appropriately, and store cleaned items in a climate-controlled environment until the property is ready for re-occupancy.

Pack-out has two big benefits beyond the cleaning itself. First: it gets your possessions out of the affected environment so they stop absorbing additional smoke odor while reconstruction runs. Second: every item is documented with a photo + condition note + cleaning result, which becomes the basis for the contents portion of the insurance claim. Items we determine are unsalvageable get documented as such, and the documentation is what supports the claim valuation.

For smaller losses where pack-out is not needed, we clean in place — same standards, same documentation, just performed at the property. Our crew brings cleaning supplies + HEPA equipment + transport bins for items that need shop work.

Smoke Odor: Why Deodorizer Does Not Work

Air freshener, ozone-spray products from the home center, and standard household cleaners do not remove smoke odor. They mask it temporarily. The smoke molecules — many tens of thousands of distinct VOCs depending on what burned — have bonded to porous materials at the molecular level. The odor returns the moment the masking scent fades.

Our protocol uses one or more of: hydroxyl generators (safe to run in occupied spaces, breaks down VOCs at the molecular level over 3-7 days), ozone treatment (occupied spaces evacuated during run, fast-acting, used for severe cases), thermal fogging (penetrates porous materials in the same patterns as the original smoke), and source removal (for materials that cannot be deodorized — insulation, drywall, certain fabrics). Selection depends on the loss type, materials affected, and how quickly the space needs to be re-occupied.

Verification is what closes the loop: we do air quality testing before reconstruction starts. If readings are above baseline, we extend treatment. The structure is not "done" because the visible damage is repaired — it is done when the air reads clean.

Process

Our Process

  1. 01

    Phone Triage

    Real human dispatch from Roselle Park. We sort loss type on the first call so the truck arrives equipped for what we are walking into.

  2. 02

    On-site Assessment

    Photos of every wet surface, moisture readings of every substrate, written cause-of-loss narrative, confirmation the source is fully off.

  3. 03

    Containment + Extraction

    Standing water removed first. Affected areas isolated to prevent spread. Damaged porous material cut to documented flood line and bagged for disposal.

  4. 04

    Documented Drying

    Industrial drying equipment sized for the loss volume. Daily moisture readings logged on a building diagram. Equipment runtime tracked for the insurance claim.

  5. 05

    Reconstruction + Walkthrough

    Drywall, flooring, paint, trim — all matched to pre-loss condition. Final walkthrough confirms the work is done before the project closes.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't see your question, just call or message us.

What happens if mold is found during the dry-out? +

If we discover existing mold growth during a water restoration job — which happens when a slow leak was already growing mold before the recent loss — we contain that area immediately and remediate per IICRC S520 before reconstruction starts. The discovery becomes a supplemental scope item for the carrier. Done correctly, both the water loss and the pre-existing mold get resolved as one coordinated project.

Do you offer free estimates? +

For property losses (water, fire, storm, sewage), we provide a no-cost on-site assessment and an Xactimate scope of work. For non-emergency reconstruction or mold remediation we provide a written estimate after on-site evaluation. We do not give phone-quote prices for restoration work — accurate scoping requires seeing the loss in person.

What certifications do your technicians hold? +

Our crew holds IICRC certifications in Water Damage Restoration (WRT), Applied Structural Drying (ASD), and Applied Microbial Remediation (AMRT) per IICRC S500/S520 standards. Specific cert status of any technician on your job is available on request — we do not stretch certifications we do not actually hold.

How do you decide what materials to remove vs save? +

IICRC S500 has clear material removal criteria based on water category and how long the material was wet. Cat-1 water + reached within 24-48 hours = often save in place. Cat-3 water = porous materials always come out. Borderline cases get the moisture-meter test: substrate that returns to dry standard with equipment runtime gets saved; substrate that stalls above dry standard for 5+ days gets removed.

Can you work in occupied condo and apartment buildings? +

Yes — we have COIs ($2M general liability + workers comp, additional insured naming the building) on file for most major condo and apartment complexes in our service area. We work within building noise windows, use service elevators, and coordinate with building management on access protocols. For larger buildings we are pre-cleared for vendor approval so paperwork does not delay active-loss response.

What if I find more damage after the work is done? +

If hidden damage emerges after reconstruction completes — usually because moisture migrated through a path that was not visible during initial scoping — we re-engage at no additional charge for the warranty period (typically 1 year on workmanship). Beyond warranty, we re-evaluate as a new claim. The initial documentation we keep on file makes the second claim faster and clearer for the adjuster.

Do you handle commercial restoration? +

Yes, we handle small to mid-size commercial restoration in Union County — offices, retail, medical, light industrial. Commercial work has different operational tempo than residential (tenant operations come first, after-hours noise scheduling, larger COI requirements). We have separate residential and commercial tech rotations because the workflows differ.
