Louisville, GA Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

Fires can be among the most devastating forces Louisville homes must contend with, and without a fast response from competent professionals, it can become a substantial and costly loss. Because we have so many of our growing roster accredited in Fire & Smoke Restoration (FSRT) through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), we are ready 24/7 for emergencies that threaten your home. We can offer pre-mitigation assistance as well as repairs and reconstruction after our restoration phase completes.  

Cleaning Up After a Fire Loss in Louisville 

There are many potential concerns after a fire gets extinguished, as some of the most hazardous effects continue to circulate. Our experienced professionals arrive with a broad inventory of potent cleaning products, solvents, and detergents to address soot and smoke residues on structural materials and contents. Some of the standard practices we implement to remove soot concerns from surfaces include: 

  • Abrasive cleaning (media blasting)
  • Agitative cleaning (dry vacuuming, brushing)
  • Wipe cleaning 
  • Controlled demolition

Removing Harsh Odors Fires Can Leave Behind in Louisville Homes

Cleaning up exposed surfaces and contents is only part of the equation for restoring a home’s interior. Beyond the natural spread of smoke and burning odors through open areas of the property, pathways like the HVAC system can also allow a greater distribution of these palpable effects. There are many effective deodorization solutions to neutralize smoke odors, such as thermal foggers and hydroxyl generators.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

The fire restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the type of fire damage you experienced, determining the equipment and resources needed.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

Your property’s ceiling, walls, floors, and other surfaces will likely have smoke and soot residue. We’ll use specialized cleaning products, equipment, and techniques to properly clean your home or business. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
