Our Fire Damage Restoration Process
Step-by-step breakdown of how our team handles fire damage restoration from initial call to final walkthrough.
Emergency Response & Securing
Our team arrives within 45 minutes to assess safety, board up exposed areas, tarp damaged roofing, and prevent further damage from weather, vandalism, or structural collapse. We coordinate with fire investigators as needed.
Damage Assessment
Our certified technicians perform a comprehensive assessment of fire, smoke, soot, and water damage throughout the property. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to identify hidden damage behind walls and in structural cavities.
Water Removal & Drying
Firefighting efforts often leave significant water damage. We extract all standing water, deploy industrial dehumidifiers and air movers, and monitor moisture levels until the structure reaches safe drying standards.
Smoke & Soot Removal
Using specialized equipment and cleaning agents, we remove smoke residue and soot from walls, ceilings, surfaces, and belongings. Different fire types (protein, synthetic, natural) require specific cleaning approaches — we match the method to the damage.
Odour Elimination & Air Quality
Smoke odour penetrates deep into materials. We use thermal fogging, ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and HEPA air scrubbers to completely eliminate smoke odours — not just mask them. HVAC ducts are fully cleaned and sealed.
Restoration & Rebuild
We rebuild all fire-damaged areas to pre-loss condition or better — structural framing, drywall, flooring, painting, cabinetry, and fixtures. As a full-service restoration company, we handle the complete rebuild under one roof with direct insurance billing.
Fire Damage Restoration Questions & Answers
Common questions Toronto homeowners ask about our fire damage restoration services.
Q. What should I do immediately after a fire?
Once the fire department clears the building, don't re-enter until it's declared safe, and avoid touching soot-covered surfaces. Call 416-988-3539 — we provide 24/7 emergency board-up and tarping to secure the property and prevent further weather and theft damage.
Q. Can smoke and soot damage be cleaned?
Often, yes. Soot is acidic and etches surfaces over time, so fast action matters. We clean and deodorise salvageable contents and structures using HEPA vacuuming, specialised soot sponges, thermal fogging and ozone treatment to neutralise odour at the source rather than masking it.
Q. Do you also fix the water damage from firefighting?
Yes. Firefighting almost always leaves significant water damage. Our IICRC-certified team extracts the water and dries the structure as part of the same project, preventing the secondary mold problems that fire jobs often create.
Q. How long does fire restoration take?
It depends on severity — light smoke cleanups can take days, while structural rebuilds run several weeks. After assessment we give you a clear timeline and handle everything from cleanup through full reconstruction in-house.
Q. Will my insurance cover fire damage?
Fire and smoke damage is covered under virtually every Ontario home and commercial policy. We document the full scope, work directly with your adjuster, and bill the insurer so your recovery is as smooth as possible.
Q. What happens to my belongings that were damaged by smoke and soot?
Belongings damaged by smoke and soot are inventoried and sorted into items that can be professionally cleaned and deodorized and items that are too damaged to restore. Textiles, electronics, and hard surfaces often respond well to specialized cleaning and odor treatment, while heavily charred items are documented with photos for your insurance claim before disposal.
Q. What happens if you find structural damage once fire restoration work begins?
If we find structural damage, such as compromised framing or subfloor, once fire restoration work begins, we stop, document it with photos, and bring in the demolition and rebuild side of our team to scope repairs. Since we handle everything from emergency response through complete rebuild, this can typically be added to the same project rather than requiring a separate contractor.
Q. Can I stay in my home during fire and smoke damage restoration?
It depends on the extent of the fire, since areas with structural damage, heavy soot, or unsafe air quality need to be vacated until they are cleaned and cleared. Smaller, contained fires may allow you to stay in unaffected parts of the home, and we will always tell you plainly whether your Toronto or GTA property is safe to occupy.
Q. What equipment do you use to remove smoke odor from a home?
We remove smoke odor using HEPA air scrubbers, thermal fogging, and ozone or hydroxyl generators, depending on how deeply smoke has penetrated walls, flooring, and contents. Surfaces are cleaned and sealed where needed rather than just masked with fragrance, since the goal is to eliminate the odor source, not cover it up temporarily.
Q. Do you provide emergency board up service on weekends and holidays?
Yes, we provide emergency board up and tarping service every day of the year, including weekends and holidays, to secure your property immediately after a fire. Call 416-988-3539 and a crew can typically be on site within about 45 minutes to board up windows and doors and protect your Toronto or GTA property from further damage or weather exposure.
