Norwich, CT Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

From cultural centers like the Slater Memorial Museum and the Leffingwell House Museum to huge venues and properties like the Mohegan Sun Arena, the threat of fire damage could be a costly and traumatic situation. Our fast-responding technicians can work fast to get the necessary mitigation started. 

How Can Removing Fire Debris Help? 

Fire debris is one of the most challenging situations that restorers encounter early in the recovery process for fire-damaged homes. We must shovel out and discard solids, bulk materials, and ash to limit strong odors and carcinogenic particles in the environment.  

Effective Mitigation Steps for Norwich Properties

Fires can be traumatic and destructive, making our professionals' initial actions even more pertinent and necessary. Our team's emergency services ensure a safe and stable work environment for the restoration work to come. Some of the needed actions to benefit the property in efficient recovery include:

  • Fire damage clean up 
  • Soot cleanup
  • Content cleaning
  • Fire and smoke damage removal
  • Smoke odor removal 

Can Smoke Malodors Be Removed from Norwich Homes?

Smoke damage can leave strong odors throughout the structure, which must be overcome and neutralized before comfortable living conditions are restored. We have multiple tools to help reduce and lessen the severity of these smells of combustion, including foggers and counteractant products. Full deodorization is often possible with hydroxyl machines and ozone 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

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 carefully inspect and test adjoining rooms of your property to determine the extent of the fire, smoke, and soot damage. This step is crucial to developing a plan of action.

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)

If needed, we can begin the water removal process with powerful pumps and extraction units. This removes most of the water. We complete the water removal and drying process with industrial-strength dehumidifiers and air movers. 

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

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.
