But once the smoke settles, and everyone is accounted for, the next step begins \u2013 the cleanup process. Fire damage cleanup can be challenging, depending on the extent of the damage. However, that\u2019s where our fire damage restoration experts can help.<\/p>\n<p>If you need advice on restoration after fire damage, contact the United Water Restoration Group. We\u2019ll be glad to arrange a visit from our team. In the meantime, though, here\u2019s a rundown of what you might expect from the restoration process.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unitedwaterrestoration.com\/contact\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#750E0E;border-color:#5e0c0c;border-radius:9px;-moz-border-radius:9px;-webkit-border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:36px;border-color:#9f5757;border-radius:9px;-moz-border-radius:9px;-webkit-border-radius:9px;text-shadow:none;-moz-text-shadow:none;-webkit-text-shadow:none\"> Locate a Restoration Specialist<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What Is Fire Restoration?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You might be wondering if it\u2019s even possible to restore your home after a fire. The good news is that, in most cases, the answer is <i>yes<\/i>. It all comes down to the fire restoration process. Fire restoration is, simply, repairing and rebuilding a property after a fire. This could mean:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Removing structures too damaged to retain<\/li>\n<li>Repairing building structures which are salvageable<\/li>\n<li>Cleaning and removing fire and smoke damage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The goal is to prevent further damage while ensuring that the property is safe to use again.<\/p>\n<p>How common is fire restoration? Well, considering that there\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfpa.org\/about-nfpa\/press-room\/reporters-guide-to-fire\/consequences-of-fire\">property fire roughly once a minute in the US<\/a>, it\u2019s <i>very <\/i>common. So, it\u2019s important to know what to expect if the worst happens and you\u2019re face with a home fire.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fire restoration can be quick. This is the case if there\u2019s only very minor damage. However, it\u2019s often a process to be completed in stages.<\/li>\n<li>You should never enter a property unless cleared by the fire department that it\u2019s safe to enter.<\/li>\n<li>Experts can give you an estimated timeline to completion, and accurate quote, after an initial site visit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let\u2019s now break down how to prepare for restoration, and what to expect from the process.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Readying Your Home for the Fire Damage Experts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While it\u2019s generally wise to leave almost all the fire restoration to the pros, there are two things you should do before they arrive.<\/p>\n<p>First, photograph the damage in its entirety. This will be useful for your insurance company. If it\u2019s unsafe to enter your home, however, you can hold off on this step and instead work with your local fire restoration company to record the extent of the destruction to your home under safer conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The second thing you should do \u2014 again, only if it\u2019s safe to enter the premises \u2014 is remove any furniture that wasn\u2019t affected by the blaze and let it air out.<\/p>\n<p>Smoke sticks around. A couch that escapes a fire unscathed, for example, can quickly take on smoke odors that will require professional equipment to remove. You can reduce the overall cost of your fire restoration by taking these simple steps.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t stress enough how important it is, though, to <i>only enter the property if it\u2019s safe<\/i>. Smoke inhalation, even at low levels, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/lung\/smoke_inhalation_treatment_firstaid.htm\">poses a health threat<\/a>. Don\u2019t take risks. Leave the job to the experts at United Water Restoration Group if you have <i>any <\/i>doubts at all.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Initial Damage Assessment<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Once your <a href=\"https:\/\/unitedwaterrestoration.com\/\">local fire restoration company<\/a> arrives on the scene, its first step will be to assess the situation. Technicians will likely examine the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>To what degree fire impacted your home&#8217;s essential structure<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The amount of soot and smoke damage to walls and other surfaces<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Signs of heat damage to your home&#8217;s fixtures, furniture, and walls<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After examining the premises, the restoration team will draw up a plan of attack and provide you with an estimate for the job\u2019s cost. They should also be able to give you an idea of the project\u2019s timetable.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Tarps and Boards<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Before cleanup can begin, it\u2019s imperative that your home is safe, structurally sound, and sealed off from both the elements and ill-intentioned people. If your home\u2019s windows, doors, or roof were damaged \u2014 either by the fire itself or by fire-associated events such as a burst pipe or a fallen beam \u2014 those cracks, breaks, and holes will be sealed up or otherwise covered to prevent the rest of your home from suffering additional harm.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"hhttps:\/\/unitedwaterrestoration.com\/fire-damage-restoration\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#750E0E;border-color:#5e0c0c;border-radius:9px;-moz-border-radius:9px;-webkit-border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:36px;border-color:#9f5757;border-radius:9px;-moz-border-radius:9px;-webkit-border-radius:9px;text-shadow:none;-moz-text-shadow:none;-webkit-text-shadow:none\"> Fire Damage Restoration Services<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Water Curtailment, Removal, and Drying (As Needed)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Water damage is often a side effect of a residential fire. Fortunately, most fire damage experts are also water damage experts. Before starting the cleanup process, professionals will stop the flow of water and remove excess water from your home. Then they will clean, sanitize, and thoroughly dry the premises using fans and dehumidifiers to prevent mold.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cleanup<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It takes more than elbow grease to clean soot and smoke out of most materials. Fire damage can dig deep below the surface, thereby requiring the resources of a trained restoration team. Once the professional cleaning process begins, it will likely involve a variety of cleaning methods focused on several areas of your home:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Soot and smoke will be removed from all affected surfaces, such as walls and ceilings, using special equipment.<\/li>\n<li>Lingering smoke odors will be eradicated using fogging gear and industrial-strength air scrubbers, both in the affected rooms, as well as nearby rooms if necessary.<\/li>\n<li>Carpets may be cleaned.<\/li>\n<li>Items that cannot be repaired, such as furniture or rugs, will be removed and properly disposed of on your behalf.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Should You Throw Everything Away After a Fire?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>You may be wondering if it\u2019s best to simply throw items away after a fire.

I have our special guest with us, our Master Technician, his name is Liam. Liam, welcome to the show.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam:<\/strong><br \/>\nHow&#8217;s it going?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nIn this episode, we&#8217;re going to be talking about fire damage, specifically for homeowners who have dealt with fire damage and how to resolve and mitigate it. Now in your experience, you&#8217;ve dealt with some fire damage before in your work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam:<\/strong><br \/>\nYep. I&#8217;ve dealt with a full wide range of different fire damage from different causes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nNow can you tell us a little bit about what are the common causes of fire damage in your experience?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam:<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, there can be electrical fires, there can be cooking fires, i.e., the grease in the home or it could be something that was related to weather, whether it be lightning striking or wind storm that knocked power lines onto your home, what have you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nWow. Well, can you tell us a little bit about the process of restoring fire damage or smoke damage?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam: <\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, absolutely. You want to be very safe because it can be harmful with the soot and the smoke in the air, and you obviously want to reach out to your emergency services, your local ones, the fire department does have to clear the home before it&#8217;s safe to be in there so you want to make sure that you use their guidance on that. Then they&#8217;ll give us the approval to come on in and then we&#8217;ll be able to address everything. A lot of fires are put out with water, so we&#8217;re looking at a two-piece system here where it&#8217;s fire damage and it&#8217;s water damage because that&#8217;s the way that they used it to put out the water or to put out the fire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nWow, I didn&#8217;t know that. That&#8217;s interesting. Now I have a question about that. Is there a special kind of testing that goes on to measure, for example, the odor and things like that in the home? Is that-<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam: <\/strong><br \/>\nA lot of times, it is a very visual thing. If you go through insurance, they&#8217;ll have an adjuster out there with you. It&#8217;s the soot damage, and the smoke, and the char. Then obviously, anything that is a porous material, can hold that smell in it so we always have to keep an account for the odor that comes with it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nWow. Well, that&#8217;s very, very great information. If you guys have experienced fire damage experts in your home or smoke damage, definitely give us a call at United Water Restoration Group. This is what we deal with. We deal with water, fire, mold mitigation, and restoration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nAnd, of course, if you have any questions whatsoever about fire damage, please leave us a question or a comment below on the video. And I want to thank Liam. Liam, thank you so much..<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liam: <\/strong><br \/>\nNo problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adan: <\/strong><br \/>\nThanks for being on the show.
