University District, WA Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

From small house fires that require malodor removal and kitchen cleanup to large structure fires in facilities like Roosevelt Square or the University of Washington Medical Center, we have talented restoration professionals to help with fire damages of all sizes.

How Does Fire Mitigation Start in University District Dorms?

Mitigating fire damages involves many possible actions beginning as soon our experienced team first arrives. Our expertise in the field of fire restoration and smoke remediation, combined with our growing inventory of recovery tools, makes us a wise choice to help after a disaster. We prioritize the greatest needs of your home or business, which can include: 

  • fire debris removal
  • fire restoration

  • water removal services
  • air quality improvement

Can Soot Be Removed from University District Apartments?

Soot removal is a necessary step to recovering fire-damaged homes and businesses throughout the district. Eliminating these soils starts with clearing thick debris and particle deposits with brushes, vacuums, and other tools. We use a combination of dry and wet cleaning options to remove the remaining residues. 

How Does Smoke Remediation Manage Odors? 

Remediating smoke damage can often require advanced strategies for managing and removing malodors. Combustion of various materials and substances can leave the property overwhelmed by harsh and noxious smells. We have deodorization practices to help when area dorms, apartments, and homes need it.

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

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

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)

In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage. 

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

We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

Any restorable items will be cleaned and sanitized. We’ll use a variety of specialized cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. Our professionals will also remove smoke and other odors using advanced air scrubbing equipment and fogging devices with deodorizers.

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.
